Like many of us here got the link off screamscape...

La Vibora

Nitro

Robb is over donkeys, so hes trying to replace them with something else... I guess he still cant find anything catchy...

This sucks! i was looking forward to riding it during my visit up there in july. I hope it opens by then.... but the chances of that happening are very slim.

I think one of the many parks that need a new coaster is, IoA, they havent gotten any coasters since 2000, but with the addition of the new ride in the park, i wouldnt expect anything soon....

They're pictures are exactly the same...

Yeah, its not that simple... they need to either update the trains, or build new ones, and i believe it was mentioned above that it also needs a new contro panel as well....

maybe its the fact that its not so much one-of-a-kind anymore!

I got the same...

Great pictures, this ride looks like it might change a lot of people's minds about 4d's.

Kumba @ BGA, about 2 days ago...

Does anyone have a picture of the layout?

You forgot the interlocking corkscrews!!!!

Euro Star

Yes, this coaster is going to SFDL, but not until next year.

Wow! nice update... this coaster looks like it will be airtime packed! looking awesome so far...

My first PTR, here it goes... Busch Gardens Tampa Bay One of my monthly trips to BGT... The day started with a long drive up to Tampa Bay, as we arrived, we I was welcomed by the sight of, none other than, Montu. As i started to pull into the parking lot, and i decided to spend the 4 extra dollars to get preffered parking. The park was not empty, but not full either, so i had an enjoyable time. The first ride of the day was Gwazi. I enjoyed the lion side of the ride, but as i decided to re-ride on tiger, (BIG MISTAKE!), i found out that it was as rough as ever! It was horrible, it was non-stop vibrations all over the ride. After that near-death experience, i headed for Shakira. This ride (opposed to the tiger side of Gwazi) was as smooth as ever... The drop is still amazing, airtime was awesome as well. With only a 15 minute wait, i decided to re-ride 2 more times before i headed for congo. As entering congo, i headed right for Kumba, as it is one of my favorite rides in the park. Kumba's new paint job made the ride even better. Ride was awesome as always, and i headed for the Skyride. As i got off the skyride, i headed right for Montu. The wait was about 10 minutes, so i decided to wait for the front row. This ride was a bit rough, it had a little head banging here and there, but other than that it was awesome. My second ride was a bit rougher, as i sat in the back row, but good overall. Then, i headed for Shakira (Yes, again...), for a final ride of the day (as the sun was setting), and sat in the back row, last seat on the right (my favorite seat of the row...) airtime was unbelieveable, and the headchopper coming out of the immelman was incredible, i never get tired of that ride! After Shakira, i headed for a last ride on Gwazi, and i made sure to go on the lion side! This ride was much better than the one in the morning, because it was getting dark, there was a slight breeze, so it made it that much better. A Final shot of Montu ends my PTR More Montuness (lol) In case you haven't seen the drop... More Gwazi (the good side...) More immelmans... Montu-goodness! Its Kumba Time! Have i shown you the drop yet? The Immelman The Awesome Drop More SheiKra shots... Then off to SheiKra First ride of the day, Gwazi (bad side...) Greeted by Montu

Elissa, that video sounds rather interesting... lol Anyways, SheiKra's drop is much better compared to Oblivion's, IMO, because not only do you get the full visual of the drop, the sense of speed is much bette, it makes it feel as if you are going faster...

I'll go for Montu...

Goliath has always been teal... http://www.coaster-net.com/rg/goliathsfmm.php Check out the colors on the right...

I hope the lines are this short when i head up there on the 17th! very nice PTR glad to see you had a great day...

New Mexico Rattler

The stopped dueling both trains on a regular basis bacause they had to wait for both trains to load before dispatch, and took too long, and made lines longer for both coasters...
