Well at least you guys enjoyed yourself..

YES!! I loved that picture Tom. Totally forgot we took it. Great reading through your trip. Fantastic meeting ya.. hope you can stroll over to whore my loved CP again.

To put it VERY simply.. Hydraulic motors pump oil into a thingy which turns the spool, which pulls the cables. Wow.. I feel noob.. haha

ginzo speaks sense. Good man. IMO, they made the trains more for the loop then for the wood... hence why the ride was so crap, besides the smooth loop. The trains were heavier because of the added requirements to keep the train on the track during the loop, which lead to un-foreseen stresses on the wooden track. If you think about it, the accident was almost bound to happen. But... it begins... who rode SoB with the loop? I DID!!

They "occasionally" do this on TTD. Sometimes, you have ops who just regulate the flow, but the lines for the seats are always full of people. MF, on the other hand, usually have ops who let in only the amount of people who can fit into the train, no more. If that will be the case on Mavvy? Who knows. I'll be betting on the TTD version of the line regulation.

Its for handicapped riders. Come on people! That would be stupid to have an elevator to take people to the trains, it would slow down capacity.. which is looking slow already. Raptor has an elevator also, because of the elevated station. And... it may or may not 'let a certain amount of people' into the station at a time, as MF did in the past (but didn't do much this season for some reason). I'm thinking, with the intervals they are trying to reach, won't be doing something like that, just to keep the flow going.

I saw you alot during the day, back by Maverick, by MF, and by TTD. Looks like you did well Want to know whats even MORE weird? Your not the only pic i've found of me... http://www.pointpixels.com/4images/details.php?image_id=10336 Someone got to me first!! LOL! Finding one pic of me once... crazy... finding it TWICE?? Insane. I'm a popular man I assume... I did have a great day though... 3 laps on MF and TTD respectively, hit every other coaster WORTH waiting for... whored Corkscrew 6 times (why, dont ask me ) every major flat. One of my best days at CP honestly, and my first closing day. Gonna make it a tradition from now on though. by the way, thanks for the new background

Hey, thanks for taking that pic of ME!! I'm on the left with my buddy willis. I saw you earlier that day taking pics of TTD. Amazing.
