*looking at your age* Man, you have some serious issues... Besides, it isn't really legalized here, it's just tolerated... To stay on topic: I don't really have a top choice. I know Switzerland, Germany and the USA the best. They all have good and bad sides and I could see myself ending up in any of them or maybe somewehere completely else. France... Spain... Australia... who knows, I'm very open minded...

I have a new idea
DragonKhan replied to coasterlover420's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Pretty much the (realtively old) Setpoint Seizmic Concept... (which has been included in RCT3 Wild) Or now the intamin Ball Coaster... -
Mundo Divertido Tijuana
DragonKhan replied to coaster1's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
From maps I'd say it is about 5 miles of walking. -
Yes, yes, that is the reason. In order to make up all the icome with tourism, they pretty much need to become a tourism mecca...

There's still a a lot of crap in the canyons of the coaster. Testing right now is impossible... but it doesn' matter, since it's a fake 100% -

In case you haven't realized... That is a fake (and a poor one to boost too)... There still needs to be a lot of theming put in before they start testing... -
Is it just me or is there a CAR below the huge pile?!

I wouldn't quite say that... More a "tourism mecca", where the amusement park is just a very small part of...

Yup... A cage for workers to do maintenance on the track... It is motorized and levels out on ever part of the track. Very helpful...

I don't say that a lot... But even though I knew about everything that was going on there... those first few pics... HOLY SHIT!!!

LOL! No, I meant their ice cream is so filling, it's like eating an entire meal. I as just gonna say... lol Well, I guess it's a matter of taste if you like Italian or American Ice Cream better. Just like with pizza, they are very different.... I for most definately prefer the Italian version...
-
There are Ice Cream MEALS?!?! Crazy Americans...
-
Have any of you ever been to Italy?!?! American Ice Cream is quite good too, but not nearly as good as the original. Besides that, American Ice Cream is extremely rich. So it doesn't surprise me that many people are obese...

Well, yes, kinda... the only case where I remember a company using some other company's term is Morgan... Any other company simply made up its own term...

Mega is hat Intamin calls their coasters up until 300 feet. B&M again names them Speedcoaster, so there is really no rule. Generally the term "Hyper" is used to descripe the coaster type (tall, airtime)...

Kilo, Mega, Giga, Tera, Peta, Exa, Zetta, Yotta are all powers of 10 and should sound familiar to pretty much everybody using computers. It just happened to be a habbit to name record braking coasters accordingly. But in the end it's completely up to the manufacturer. The latest example, the "strata coaster" drops out of this system... Kilo (K) 1'000 Mega (M) 1'000'000 Giga (G) 1'000'000'000 Tera (T) 1'000'000'000'000 Peta (P) 1'000'000'000'000'000 and so on.....

I'll be open by June most definately! Who says the theming has to be completed? Half the attractions in the park are not fully themed yet, but are already open. If it opens in April you probably won't see all of the theming, but don't count on the ride beeing closed... -
Intamin Ride Safety
DragonKhan replied to Twister II's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Uh? Just like with B&M... Quality... Would you rather ride a Volkswagen or a Mercedes? Dumb question IMHO... -

I'd say you have good chance in May. Heck, they might even finish it until April, but I just would not count on it! -
Intamin Accelerators
DragonKhan replied to HCOSurfer90's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
AFAIK GE999 is an accelerator. Even though it uses tires, the mechanism is very similar. In other words, it's also a hydraulic launch... At least that's what I think... -
What is it that everyone hates about SLC's?
DragonKhan replied to martinb's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
They may not be a B&M, but I still like them a LOT for what they are! The layout is great and packs quite a punch. Especially for that price tag! See it that way... Without cheap Vekomas you wouldn't have B&M's... -

From what I heared so far it may be open, it may be not. There is nothing official released. some people from onride will take the chances and go there for the parks opening on April 1... I for one say it on't be open by then, but who knows...
