^ That's more than I even anticipated. I was maybe expecting a few buildings, but nowhere near that much. Its always good to see a lot of paint being thrown around the park nicely to spruce it up and make it not look dead.

So what happened with this? You guys ever make it out to the park? It was only me that was going, but ended up not making it out there.

*bump* Is there anything going on with the trains for Gold Striker?

Well I'll be going to take a look at our beloved new coaster today, I'll see if I can get pictures up later today.

Im just going to say Knott's probably doesn't want vortex. I'd rather see it go to VF or MA.

^ Even though you beat me to the punch, I was just going to say around memorial day. All there is left to do is finish the drop and the station.

^ Giant Dipper isn't that bad, id say they should invest ins chiropractic booth for when you come off of Grizzly.

^ You can say that again.

Thats absolutely gorgeous, it getting closer everyday. Also, look at the cabin on star tower, all the way down in the hole for maintenance.

^I don't think trains will fix it, a wrecking ball is what we need.

Do you have a reliable source to back this up?

I'll be checking out the 'walk the same day, and if you don't mind I'd be down to join you guys for the adventure! I am in need of some good wood right now. You're more than welcome to join us BFG, the more the merrier.

Im already thinking im not going to make the Midwest trip, so I may just have my deposit go to wcb so I don't have to worry about scrounging around for money. Is it possible for me to do that if I don't have the $1,000 by march 1st?

I'll see how it looks on saturday when i'm out there with the group.

The link you posted doesn't work for me.

Would be cool to see some lanterns with flickering led's. Wouldn't do much in the day, but at night it would add more atmosphere.

Gold Striker has officially been topped off this morning. Im sure pictures and a video will be posted soon.

Marathon Gold Striker possibly? I'll do my best to be there for this outstanding event, through the up's and downs.

^The new parking garage is pretty far, as it's across the street and directly next to the new 49'ers stadium.

I have been waiting anxiously awaiting the announcement of WCB '13. I'm so stoked now, though i'm thinking about only doing the Knott's day after what happened last year at SFMM.

Just thought id let everyone know that I'll be trying for weekly updates to look at the progress and see if I can get to posting some pictures of Goldy. (Especially since GWW is done now.)

It would make for a really interesting ride, but in all honesty i'd say that we'll never see it happen again. Who knows, crazier things have happened before.

What about a dueling RMC iron horse coaster? It sounds plausible to me.

It'll only last until KBF re-tracks or gives Ghostrider the iron horse make-over.

I can see them doing something gimmicky somewhere on this just to take the record away from Outlaw Run.
