^your welcome. I do agree that we need more of these in the U.S. I think these would best fit smaller parks especially ones like Frontier City, Lakeside, Joyland (Wichita, KS). Even though these are already in some large places, imagine one going into a huge one like CP. Capacity would be horrible. You are right that they aren't expensive. Especially compared to other thrill coasters. I think that Vild Svinet was only a coupe million. The prices aren't bad for the punch it packs.

^A Eurofighter is a unique coaster built by Gerstlauer. They have 90 degree angle lift hills and a drop of 95 degrees or more. Trains are single car consisting of eight people in two rows of four. A lot of times they appear to be very compact. Speed Layout (Oakwood) rcdb Speed Lift and Drop (Oakwood) rcdb Rage (Adventure Island) rcdb

Based on the pictures: Unless you are trying to make a modified screamin squirrel, the zero-g roll is extended too long. I do however like the colors. -
It's really nice to know that these companies actually care instead of being nice because it's good for business. It feels like a lot of them just want money and that's what they are there for. But after seeing all yall's posts, especially AT0527, B&M must be really nice people no matter what. That's awesome.

I have written to WOF two times. The first time, they gave me four pictures of Mamba under construction and one of it finished. They were all really good photos. The second time they gave me a big picture of Thunderhawk. Little Question. Are park map posters full sized posters that you would find in the swively thingys at Wal-Mart?

What is the most awkward thing you can say on a coaster?
christianscoasters replied to eli's topic in Random, Random, Random
Singing "Funky Town" on a small coaster to make you feel less scared or nervous. This happened at Frontier City on the Silver Bullet. It was my friends birthday and he decided to wait while me and his dad rode SB. We leave the station and, "Won't you take me to". then in the loop, "funky town!" It was so wierd... I got another one. Me and my mom rode Detonator at WOF. Believe me, this was HILARIOUS!!! "Hey look mom, he's gonna' press the go button!" "But my restraint isn't even down!!!" "Uh oh." "Oh sh*********************************************t!!!" (and yes the billions of stars were necessary. Believe me, that's short compared to how long it really lasted) **Her restraint was down, but it was loose** -

I have an HO scale model carnival/six flags in my attic. I just decided to put it all on a piece of wood so there isn't much landscaping, but we are moving soon so I don't think that I will be buying anything in the near future. It has a Faller Wilde Maus coaster, ferris wheel, carousel, hotel, grandstand, food and game booths, and more. It all started when I went to KBtoys and found the ERTL carnival set at last minute. I am so glad that I found that. Especially for $10!!! -
Hardly! Psyclone will be removed within four weeks. http://www.dailynews.com/antelopevalley/ci_5065349 However, it's interesting that Flashback is only going into storage after being taken down and the park is exploring the idea to MAYBE re-install it somewhere in the park again in the future (but not this year). I checked out the link. I thought X was going to open in January. Not February. Where in the park can they move Flashback to? Since when was X's rehab routine maintenance?

^OMG! Same here!

Why did they say that the vertical turn around thingamabobber is an Immelman? (The first post link) -
Woah. I had ABSOUTELY no clue that ZZ was relocated! I never had a chance to ride it, but I'm happy it's somewhere else together and not in pieces. My dad rode ZZ a while before it was taken out and he said that it was his favorite coaster anywhere. I don't think we'll be heading for that park anytime soon though.

^^Well, the website took it off, so there is probably a 99% chance that they are getting dismantled. The other 1% is because it is not official yet. I remember in the 'SFMM updates' thread, they took away all the junk behind Psyclone. Maybe they were making room to get rid of Psyclone. It's really nice to hear that the park is getting rid of some coasters. Personally, I do like that these coasters are being taken out, however, they are the least-loved attractions, so it really dosen't make this anymore of a family park. Flashback was never really open anyway. They need to put some flats in or something to replace these. Can't wait for more!

Best Looking Park From A Distance
christianscoasters replied to RollerC's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
WOF is pretty cool. We were about 20-25 minutes away from WOF and you could see Mamba's lift hill. We got right by the park and it was amazing! The rides aren't right by the interstate but that makes it cooler. Patriot is so tiny! -
Wazzup Elissa? Could you PLEASE change mine to "If something is too hard to do, it's not worth doing." If that's too long then "a.k.a-coolestcoasterkidever!" Thank You!!!

The Confession Thread
christianscoasters replied to SonOfBeastSucks's topic in Random, Random, Random
^You'll succeed! Don't worry. And uh, why is that a confession? -
^Okay getting mad now! I said that because they're are people out there who do not want their kids to hear that. My aunt and uncle never cuss or even say 'crap' around their kids because they don't want them to hear it. At my school, everybody cusses. When somebody says something 'bad', we don't make a bid deal about it. Personally, I don't have a problem with the name 'Hellavator', but there is people out there that do. I think I'll leave the forums now so I don't get mad and then get suspended or banned.
