Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
Pufferfish replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yay, a second floorless I can actually get to! It should really get a new paint job though, or maybe just a touch up to cover the rusty and faded spots. Otherwise, can't wait to see this up and running! -
Accident in Siam park,Thailand
Pufferfish replied to mobilejom's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Oh no, not the woman being flung from the boat! Now we're going to have seat belts installed on all logflumes. Well, I'm glad the park is accepting responsibility. Makes me want to get injured on a ride and get a free ride through college and lifelong free admission to the park. I hope those injured recover soon. -
Accident in Siam park,Thailand
Pufferfish replied to mobilejom's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hmm... Can anyone say, lawsuit? This is just terrible. It sounds as if this wasn't the first time something like this has happened there. It seem a shame that they'd tear down the ride for a new one though, that is if mobilejom is right. They could always just fire they people responsible, and add the normal sensors and other safety features to it to stop this from happening in the future. I'm sure the upgrade would save them more money than just getting a new ride would. -
Photo TR: HersheyPark in the Dark
Pufferfish replied to natatomic's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Here at Carowinds, on any day, if there is any empty seat, you can take it. This is only restricted on Top Gun some days because of crowds. Sad that parks like Hershey don't allow it. -
Yes, the more rides with Test Track's ride system, the better. Have you ever witnessed a GP doing coaster porn?

^ Is an old person. < Has a concept coaster design as his Avatar. V Wishes to be as cool as me and have a concept coaster design as his avatar too.

Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
Pufferfish replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
A friend of mine said this while eating at Moe's one night: "Did you know, there's a coaster underneath the Hurler at Carowinds." Of course, my coaster geek side came out and I had to argue with him, I said "No there isn't. There's not enough space underneath it for one anyways." His response was, "It's a secret coaster that only cool people know about, it's underground." -
The Official "TPR Japan Trip 2007" Thread
Pufferfish replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That obstacle course at muscle park had some of the obstacles from Ninja Warrior! I've got to go there . -
Dude, I'm going to be there friday night, we should meet up! Anyways, most everything should be open. Only thing that I know will be closed is TR backwards, and that's because they haven't finished the refurb on it. Price for entry to Scarowinds for season pass holders is $20.00.

3 Facts Name That Coaster!
Pufferfish replied to kennywood!007's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
El Bandito, Sunland Park, NM? Also, are we the only ones playing this game anymore? -
Great TR. You could have done the single rider line on test track if you didn't want to wait in the stand by line. Boy, this makes me want to go back so bad, but thats probably not going to happen in the next three years, sigh.

PPP weekend through the eyes of a 2 yr old!
Pufferfish replied to IggyACE's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Man all these people starting out so early with credits. I'm jealous. I only had one at the age of two and if you would have said the word roller coaster, I would have said, huh what? I wish my family was all coaster enthusiasts too and not just me. -

Pufferfish replied to BarryH's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow, this is awesome. I am keeping one eye on this at all times to see if this song s actually recorded. If so, I will make it one of my ring tones, put it on myspace, etc. -
RCT2: TPR Theme Park
Pufferfish replied to WillMontu's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Wow, nice. I was wondering if someone had actually made a park of rides themed to TPR. It's looking good, can't wait to see more of it. -

3 Facts Name That Coaster!
Pufferfish replied to kennywood!007's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Nope, sorry. Yay, I chose a hard one this time! -
Oh, here's the ultimate of a random post... This is my 200th post! Otherwise, I'm still looking for someone to join me at the SC state fair this Saturday. I don't want to be sad and pathetic on my 34th credit.

This past summer, Vortex here at Carowinds had a bought of wanting to break down. I believe it was problems with the lift motor. Otherwise, I only saw Top Gun down once this summer, and that was for some support problems. I can't really say I've seen a B&M down for more than one day, unless some very extensive work is being done on it.
