Team Thriller

Since I've lived in Germany for the last 10 years, I can honestly say, they aren't much smaller. There are some real fata$$es here in this country. And the reason they are tight fit to you is because they are made to have a tight fit, that way, you will actually stay on the ride comfortably. --James

Happy Big Birthday Big Mike. Hope yours is full of big fun and big cake and big ice cream. And hope your 09' year will get you big credits. But first celebrate your big birthday. --James "Dang, said Big way too many times" Flint

Greetings mighty and majestical Title fairy... Since it's a new year, and my home park Europa Park is getting a fabulous new coaster, my I please have my title changed to "Mr. Europa Park" cause I want to show my love for the best park in Europe. Thanks a millie! --James

^ You are my new best friend..... Thank you so much for keeping us updated! I cannot wait for this to open. I'm very intrested to see what else this new section has to offer. --James

I totally have seen this coming. When I go down to Cozumel to go scubba diving, I hope this park is open. --James

I kinda think I understand your question, not sure though. But I will answer it: You push the shift button and lift the roof piece into place. I hope that helped. --James

*Eats nerd cookie* Robert is a great director! Have no clue who the other dude is. Everytime I see these pictures, I can picture Alan Silvestri's soundtrack playing. --James

Senseo is my favorite. And for the company, it will have to be Starbucks all the way! --James

That sucks really really bad. I grew up with the Nut Tree park. I haven't be able to see it in its new form, but it looks like it would have been great. --James

Without a doubt. Expedition Ge Force in the back left seat! You will not be able to keep your hands up the first time you ride. You cannot imagine how insanely steep and fast it feels. And the airtime is unbelievable. The best way to describe it is being "pulled" down with the train at breathneck speed. 1.) Ge Force 2.) X 3.) Griffon 4.) Silver Star (In the way front, leaning forward) 5.) Medusa (SFDK)

^ Thank you so much for those pictures! Especially the park map picture. I was scared they where going to change the whole map look, which would be bad cause Europa Parks are my favorite. --James

LMAO! Best quote of the week! --James

I guess since life is followed by the "when in Rome" rule, I too with join the late crowd of folks who say, Happy B-day. Hope it's an awesome one! "As you follow lifes road....." "...Stop and get a few burgers along the way" --James

You truly showed the true fascination of Europa Park. I've never been there during Winter (Since we do the October trip every year for our Halloween) But now I would love to see it in person. Great pictures! Very artistic and colorful. --James

I have a few 'home parks' since I change my location sometimes. Plus, all the parks are pretty close together. Europa Park - Silver Star or Euro Mir Phantasia Land - Black Mamba or Winjas Holiday Park - Super Wirble... I mean Expedition Ge Force. (My number one steel) Walibi Belgium - Turbine or Werewolf Bobbejaanland - Typhoon Overall: Ge Force without a doubt. --James

Even the concept has many many flaws. It was very slow, had no forces what so ever, horrible capacity, looked very very ugly, during the helixs it was brutal. The only good part was the lift, the 5 second end when it goes very low to the ground, and the 5 seconds fly over the water. Trust me, Sorin' Over California is WAY WAY better. The company really needs to get their act together and find out just what they are doing. --James

Yes! Best news of the off season. Even though it looked amazing as part of the skyline, inside the park, it looked ugly. --James

I lived in Roseville for almost four years, and I never got that credit. I don't think they even had it there. But it looks like a great place, and next time I'm there. It will be waiting for me. Great pictures Big Mike, but lets bring on the finals. --James

^ 15 times in three days Maybe during Groundhog Day.... --James

I love Phantasialand Winjas is absolutly fun, and Black Mamba, IMO, is better then Batman. Great pictures also. --James

Actually, all stores are very similar. They try and make you walk by idems to make you buy them. Always wonder why the diary products are usually in the back. Cause when people need them, they walk by other items and are 'wheeled' in to buy it. Anyways, very interesting TR. Makes me hungry reading it. --James

Mine would have to be Psyclone at Six Flags Magic Mountain. That piece of sh!t feels like riding a shopping cart without wheels down a road at high speeds. Also Limit at Heide Park. I rode it once in the back, and then just because I couldn't believe how bad it was, I rode it again in the front. During my ride it starting pouring down rain. It hurt so bad that it defiantly put me to the limit. --James

This coaster is my new love! It looks incredible! It looks like it will probably beat Euromir and Silver Star. I'll probably be there opening day for my birthday party. So I'm so hyped up. Cannot wait. Kudos Roland. --James

Blue Fire! I cannot wait. This is my number one park in Europe, it has never failed me, and I would bet a turkey dinner it is going to be the best coaster in the park! Hopfully I get to Europa Park the first day it opens. That's the plan at least. --James

Mine are: 1.) Get a pet monkey called Jo Jo 2.) Stop throwing water balloons at the dogs across the street 3.) Be more tolerant towards Walibi Belgium even though they are one of the worse parks (opps. Oh well. I'll try again next year) 4.) Eat the worlds largest hotdog 5.) Spend more time on TPR --James
