Sleep now in the fire - rage against the machine

Maybe they could do a combined sequel, "Junbo", there's got to be some people to rescue somewhere, maybe ACErs stuck in coaster trains at Cedar Point.

Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread
downunder replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
So a train of ACErs will send the train plumetting down the drop at 600 km/h. Still very cautiously optimistic... -
I'm just glad they finally realised that X is the marquee attraction at the park and are giving it some major league loving, so many people I know who aren't enthusiasts say X is the their main draw (even after Tatsu) and are really disappointed when it isn't open. I have also watch the park drop out of the picture tourism wise - the LA Qantas holidays catalogue just stopped listing tours to magic mountain years ago while Knott's, Disney, Universal, San Diego Parks and Legoland are all still there.

X2 Trains Arrive At SFMM
downunder replied to Jhcbiinoc's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Very nice, they look great but I'll see what they are like when they are plumetting down that 215 foot drop. -

They should be an improvement but I'd rather a sleek Intamin train powering through juicy course. Are Trey Parker and Matt Stone total perverts (and I reckon they are all brokeback for each other)? -
No, but I have vomited on a slow moving epcot ride (long story). If you were having a child would you prefer a boy or a girl?

Mitch Hawker's Steel Poll
downunder replied to yankees15's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I did the hard work a few years ago and put my list together by deleting everything I hadn't ridden and then arranging them in order. Since then I just add the new credits, though that job was much larger this year. Bring on the Ride of Steel versus GeForce poll riggers war. My ballot at the moment has two newbies to my top ten from the midwest trip, and I've had a mjor rethink about some ratings right through my list. Here is my top 30 at the moment, though I may change my mind: 1. Superman - Ride of St (SF New England) 2. Favorite Wood Coaster (El Toro) 3. Maverick 4. Top Thrill Dragster 5. Millennium Force 6. X 7. Nitro 8. Magnum XL-200 9. Phantom's Revenge 10. Superman Escape (Warner Bros Movie World) 11. Raptor 12. Storm Runner 13. Flight of Fear (Kings Island) 14. XCelerator 15. The Chiller-Robin 16. Tatsu 17. Dueling Dragons-Fire 18. Kingda Ka 19. Incredible Hulk 20. Dueling Dragons-Ice 21. Kraken 22. Batman The Ride/Clone 23. Goliath (SFMM) 24. Vortex (Kings Island) 25. Raging Bull 26. Wicked Twister 27. Deja Vu (SFMM) 28. Deja Vu (SFGAm) 29. Gemini 30. Riddler's Revenge -

It just had picture of Elissa in the dictionary (and proud of it, she would say). Why is Santa Claus in Indiana? -

Right now, after just seeing them live, Zach and Rage Against The Machine. -
I don't drink coffee. Have you seen Brokeback Mountain (I haven't, but I have seen Brokeback To The Future on youtube)?

Because foreigners are more peverse and would put a piece of rubber the shape of a shoe in that region. How much are season passes to the Neverland Ranch? -
Mini Photo TR: Carabba's Birthday Dinner
downunder replied to TheRapidsNerd's topic in Random, Random, Random
Thanks. It's sad when the marquee attraction at your (former) home park is a Vekoma Boomerang. Oh well at least there's some good ones a 1000km up the road. -
Mitch Hawker's Steel Poll
downunder replied to yankees15's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I emailed Mitch about adding the new half pipe at Wet'n'Wild and the Toboggan at Little Amerricka. -
She might have been something in her prime, er, I mean she's a crap politician - so no. Is W the worst pres ever?

Nürburgring launched coaster
downunder replied to thomas2's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'd ride it for sure, that acceleration will be just ridiculous even though it is not the most inspiring coaster layout ever. -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
downunder replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Erik, the fact that you won't be captain of the arrow short bus this time is also a strong reason not to go. I was curious about that one, even though it's supposed to be awful I did want to try out that intense launch, oh well, that's an extra 2 hours free to do KD. -
CGA's Flight Deck STRIKES BACK!!!

Much, much better I'll give it a B-, would have been higher but leaving off the "er" cost them. -

I couldn't seem to find the Toboggan type of coaster Little Amerricka has, either on it's own or in a group, anyone else find it? I wish Dragon Wagons were included, so I could put them right down the bottom. -

Mini Photo TR: Carabba's Birthday Dinner
downunder replied to TheRapidsNerd's topic in Random, Random, Random
I did the Olive Garden with R & E and that was pretty good, and Elissa rates Carabbas well above that, so I'll be in first chance I get. -

Mini Photo TR: Carabba's Birthday Dinner
downunder replied to TheRapidsNerd's topic in Random, Random, Random
I keep thinking Carabba's is that place they had the birthday party in South Park where Cartman wasn't invited, and he abducted one of the kids who was so he could go. I'm gonna have to check this place out, Elissa rates Carabba's highly so it must be good.
