Just in case it helps how about I tell you my browser and what not. Browser: Firefox System: Vista Internet service: Road Runner High speed

^ Problem is that the video took 26 minute to load...With high speed internet! Dose anyone else have problems with coaster tube loading EXTREMELY slow?

^ Yes it is were that green and blue lawn ornament use to stand. Actually with this ride I don't seem to miss Vu any more....

It doesn't seem like anyone has mentioned this... On the second to last turn if the boat has to much weight one side the boats would buckle and snap to that side (Which made a clunking sound.) I saw it happen about five times and one of those times the boat behind me got stuck in that section for a few seconds... I wonder if they will fix this somehow of just make sure the boats have the weight evenly distributed.

Well I'm having the Mountain Dew Throwback right now... I seriously think its wayyyy better than the normal kind and I bet all of these other cane sugar special editions taste much better. Why oh why cant all sodas use cane sugar!

I have to say this ride defiantly exceeded my expectations! The themeing is marvelous and the thing itself kicks serious booty! But I noticed in that one picture (first one were you have the pirate stuff on.) I have quite the facial expression... Half "Oh crap!" and the other half "Hooray!"

Here is my idea! I'm new to photo shop so it may not be the best....

^ Gosh six flags is cheap! Although I do give them some credit for the really nice themeing!

^Yes it did It was the one a SFGAm and it has a full train of people.

Wells for Raging Rapids they have water canons. As I last recall it was something like 50c, which I'm sure they will do the same for this ride. Who's all going to Media day?

Robb it's not sending me the E-mail! (after a few tries) I don't know why... Just no luck

I "ordered" it and now I'm patiently awaiting for the link to pop up in my inbox! Looking forward to it and I'll tell you what I think after I get a chance to watch it! ------------------------------------ EDIT: Tried a second time after waiting about an hour for the first one..... Still no luck!

^That ride has terribly painful hang time! It also wasn't kind to my bits...

Because Hades is hogging all the tunnel..... Edit: Crap hades is a Gravity Group Oh well it still is the king of tunnels!

^Ah yes but they don't move freely trough a tube now do they!

That could be pretty cool if done right Although most tube style coasters have gone wrong, I still like their crazy looks. What caused them to go wrong? I have some ideas that could help with some possible problems.

1:20am here and I dont use all caps.

Did you say your going to Illinois soon! I would love to possibly meet up for a ride or two at SFGAm! Or even just to get my photo taken with the famous Big Mike... - Nathan "Your silent but deadly Big Mike reader"

Great trip report Cameron! It's nice to hear the park is running better than last year! (Considering I may visit some time soon.) I really don't think the cars on Galaxy look that bad... But I have yet to see the ones under the tarp! *cough* Pinball nerd *cough*

Robb I'm going crazy from not being able to watch Coaster Tube videos so I have finally decided to let you know. Whenever I try to watch a Coaster Tube video it loads EXTREMELY slow. A one minute video loads in like 20 minutes! I have high speed internet and I use Fire Fox... Any ideas what wrong?

From one of the previous threads that died a long time ago... Here's my idea The Inverting Bobsled... And here is an idea for the cars done by by a fellow TPR member... (tkkyj) The top wheels would be able to compress inwards a bit so it would be able to take turns a bit easier... the tube has fins to align the car before the brake run see inverts in direction changes Its a free moving car... that moves trough a tube and can flip on fast direction changes

Yay! It has spread to Wisconsin! I'm not sure about his whole thing... I'm kinda worried and kinda not...

A few of my recent 2009 photos! As always I have higher quality versions available! So if you feel like it send me a PM! Hulk Not from 2009 but I love it Go WHIZZER! Artsy I'm gona go the heeeaven! Iron Wolf motion blur! Viper ! Whizzer!

Shane ..If I remember correctly you said over in the "What the heck is hapening to Greesed Lightning" thread, that if they can't fix the unstable land situation you would try to squeze it in. Was this mearly a joke? Or were you seriouse?
