TR: Michigan State Fair
Chris Benvenuto replied to Chris Benvenuto's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Interesting, Never tried that.... the fair had only 30 of it's 60 rides up, so that's why they had no zipper! -

When do you go back to school?
Chris Benvenuto replied to CoasterCrazy's topic in Random, Random, Random
I start on the 29th Chris -
1. Roller Coaster (5/10): This was your average non looping Z40 model made by Pinfari or Zamperla. I don't know which, but this was your average ride. Didn't like it this much this year, Didn't know why, I won't tell. 2. Break Dance (AKA Twister) (6/10): Well well, a new ride, minimal twisting and a breakneck speed equals hands on the front bar and and a no fun ride from me, as well as a bad rating. 3. White Water (Log Ride) (8/10): Since it was a uncommon ride in the State Fair, I went on it, and got half of my body soaked in the process. Fun ride, worth it and got on it in no time. 4.Tea Cups (5/10) (made by Zamperla): This compact ride, made by zamperla was made for people who like spinning, and which i didn't made me abit sick, and i rested shortly after wards Break for an elephant ear and a larger drink. We checked on my friend's racing pigeons and other animals for a small period of time. 5. Wacky Worm (5/10) (#52): Normal average Worm ride, my legs had to crossed for me to fit. and the lapbar restraint didn't help much either. 6. Cliffhanger (9/10): I love this hang glider ride, it comes back every year and always has a decent 10-12 person line. Great ride. 7. Unnamed ride (4/10): All i know this was way too bumpy for my liking and didn't ride again. yuck! This all and all was what i did at the State Fair Enjoy the TR! i hope you did! Chris

I'm at a close yes with my mom on the SFGAM event..... well, i'm going to do research and see what hotels are good in the area... which hotel are you staying at Elissa? maybe we can meet there... if you could tell me that'd be great! Chris B -
I had to wait an hour and 15 minutes for Dragster and I didn't think it was worth the wait.....45 minutes of it was downtime due to weather and originally it had a half hour wait.....Not a bad ride.....Got on the Black Cherry train on Dragster.....Made it over the hill first time.... Dragster's fun but not worth waiting over an hour to ride.....i'm sorry but that's a fact about Dragster..... Chris

GTA: San Andreas Now Rated 'Adults Only'!
Chris Benvenuto replied to Meteornotes's topic in Random, Random, Random
Really, some adults like assholes.....GTA was made to have a free fun world to play in. I see kid's games like Jak and Daxter getting violent, and they don't care much about those!? C'mon people get some common sense....Return GTA to the M Rating it originally deserved.... Chris -
This is why we have a dog.....named lance.....he's 7 1/2 years old..... I'll be praying for RatTums.....don't you worry.....God is here to help RatTums.... Sorry to hear this! Really sorry! Chris

I remember when this came out, I'm sure we all do, I checked the link too and they haven't done squat to take it down. This is wrong of them to do so, they should lose the domain if found guilty and it seems they are guilty.... anyway it's a great video, i still have mine from 2003! Great Dragster POV Robb!

NEWS: Idlewild Opens New Log Flume
Chris Benvenuto replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
well, with Idlewild, when I visited on Memorial Day weekend, the 29th. to be precise they were still testing the ride 3 logs would be sent out empty, then 1 log with 2-4 employees and admistrative employees would test the ride as live water body bottles. what i mean is, employees would ride it. we asked about if it opened and it was having problems, they said " sorry, it hasn't been open at all to the public, sorry, we're deciding still what the opening day is, sorry. We're sorry for the inconvenence. Enjoy the rest of your day!" That's what a employee said as an apology from the Adminstration of Idlewild and Kennywood Entertainment Corportion. hopes this scoop helps explain the ride. all it is, is just 3-4 turns, a 80 foot hill and drop. Not worth my time. sounds like a waste of my time riding,if it's queue becomes full. Chris -
Favorite ride queue lines
Chris Benvenuto replied to tsmcdon's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Best: MaxAir's Line is really good for a ride of that scale. When I went on it on the 14th of May, there was about 400 people in line and 150 where outside of the queue, maXair's queue is longer then you think with all the Friggin switchbacks CP uses. Worst: Disaster Transport. EWWW. I like to Ghetto Stomp DT alot. -
Kill Dragster
Chris Benvenuto replied to Coasterlicious's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
http://rcdb.com/installationresult.htm?column=1,10,3,4,5&order=1,2&model=187 Here check this out coasterlicious. Dragster is the 2nd oldest Rocket or "Accelerator Coaster" as Intamin calls it, TTD was the 2nd Coaster intamin ever built with a launch faster then 100 MPH! does this proof make you understand or cause something to click in your head? Understand it's complex quality now? -
Kill Dragster
Chris Benvenuto replied to Coasterlicious's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Man, you'll need to understand the complex amounts of time and work it takes to run coasters over 200 feet tall, MF may run smooth but that's the only Giga Intamin ever built. CP knows by heart how MF works, give Dragster some TLC and some time with Mechanics and they will have it running smoothly in no time. Trust the Park's Ride Repair Department, also i've gone 2 years without riding Dragster and that's when I thought "Dragster is Stupid" but I got on it this spring and LOVED it, MAXAIR kicked ASS too. I agree maXair is great too, i feel the same way. Chris "Needs to ride WT, SOB, Beast, Delirium" Benvenuto
