  1. People are always amazed when I tell them that I love to ride roller coasters but still haven't been to Cedar Point. It's got huge mindshare with people who are only vaguely familiar with the hobby.
  2. I stick by my post from last year...
  3. I'm most excited for Skyrush. Next would be Verbolten (mainly because it'll be 45 minutes from me).
  4. The colors actually remind me of KD's Shockwave's original color scheme. That's a good thing, imo. This addition is enough to get me back in the park next year so good job, Six Flags! (KDCoasterfan will be there too, methinks)
  5. Not too surprising. I'd still prefer a razing of Hurler.
  6. Based on CW's announcement, I'm betting on an Intamin mega coaster...
  7. When I got the e-mail with this announcement I thought it was TPR pulling a joke. "Why would you build 2 similar coasters by the same company within 4 years of each other?" To the complainers and counter-complainers---I really don't think the ride itself is getting ripped (I'm sure it will be great fun) but the decision to build it at CW is a head-scratcher to me. Why not make it a record-breaking looper, inverted, or flyer? I wonder if the hiccups I305 experienced last year influenced the decision to go with B&M.
  8. I'll actually make a trip up to SFA to ride this. I actually kind of liked Vortex at Carowinds so if the "roughness" is in line with that then I'm ok with it.
  9. ^^Probably a holding or staging area for track pieces? A part of KD's parking lot was where track pieces were unloaded for I305 and Dominator.
  10. I'm confused--or probably just mistaken--but I thought that the "MC" in the part number was supposed to designate the type of coaster. MC = Mega Coaster SC = Sitting Coaster DC = Dive Coaster FC = Floorless (Flying?) Coaster Obviously, the park already has a mega so I guess that initial scheme is incorrect.
  11. I signed up for this one too. Can't wait!
  12. ^My secret was I drove home around 1:00 PM and took a nap then came back all refreshed for night time ERT.
  13. Awesome report! I think I'm going to visit this park the day after Bizarro Bash. Anyone want to meet up!!???
  14. Ooo... I just found a round-trip flight from Richmond to Atlanta for $170.
  15. ^No problem. I don't know that I would have been up for a KD trip last night anyway.
  16. ^^Steve!!! You went to KD without me! Nice pics. After meeting you at BG the other night I thought I'd finally check in on this thread.
  17. ERT on Apollo's Chariot was definitely amazing. Kind of sorry I didn't pony up the $$$ for the backstage tours...
  18. I'm starting to talk myself into this one. I haven't been to SFoG in 5 years and I enjoyed it a lot. Plus, I've got a sister in Atlanta I could probably stay with...
  19. I suggested something like Maverick, Cheetah Hunt, or iSpeed. Those offer up some of steel's best attributes like smoothness, inversions, and the ability to launch. They can also offer up either extreme or family thrills.
  20. ^SFA Regular--did you visit the fountain of youth or something? Your age used to be like 27 or 28. Anyway, I may be getting a season pass but it will only be so I can use it at SFGAdv and SFNE. When I get it processed I may try to get a ride in on Superman and Wild One. How's SROS running this year?
  21. No way we'll ever see a B&M invert at KD (just a feeling). As for a new woodie, I'd love to see an Intamin prefab but I'm not holding my breath for any new major coaster for another 3-5 years.
  22. ^^Schools will still be in session so I would imagine it will mostly be walk-ons or max 3-5 train waits (possibly a little longer for Volcano).
  23. I went to KD on Sunday too and there were some crazy crowds. Only rode I305 3x (it seemed to break down everytime my friend and I got in line for it), Dominator 1x, and Grizzly 1x. I lost my cell on Intimidator
  24. Oh fiddlesticks. Looks like I missed out on all the fun (and illicit pictures). So tempted to just post my e-mail address and see what kind of surprise e-mail I get over the next few days....
