Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread

RCDB is claiming that Intimidator 305 goes 79.5 mph now. Somehow I don't believe that. www.rcdb.com/4520.htm -
I have noticed certain things women can get by with more than men in the years I've been alive. How much I do in one day depends on Knotts' crowds that day and how much I get done (either a Wednesday or Thursday). I do not know when I will get back to CA either so if I end up liking Knotts a ton it may be only one of them so I can spend more time there. The way I am figuring is 7-9 hours is enough at Knotts so if I knew I could definitely knock out the credits in 3 - 3 1/2 hours at the three small parks then I will.

Thanks for the responses! That is the reason for the credits

I am planning a couple of credit runs during my trip to CA next month and was reading up on Adventure City and have one question. Do they require you to be a part of ACE or any other known coaster club to enter without a kid? According to this report www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=251742#251742 and a couple others from other places they did. But then again a couple other reports from this site doesn't mention having to. Their website mentions nothing of it so I was wondering if anyone recently went in there without a kid had any problems getting in. Thanks!

Maybe with a rental car or an old one that I am ready to get rid of, but I would never trust the car that I drive regularly on that. -

That has already started, it was a mess a couple hours ago. I rode it twice today, once near the front and once near the back. While the first drop is now slower, it has made the second half of the ride better in my opinion. That is right. You still enter through the main line, but right where the two lines slant to the right before making the left into the station you either stay right for the front row or go left for all other rows. And they have now made it where the left side has it's own entry into the station so you don't have to squeeze by anyone waiting for the front. -

^ They already have Backlot Stunt Coaster there so atleast it has another one to mix in with. -

If you get there at 10 you can ride Dominator before 10:30. At 10:30 when the ropes drop do not go straight to Intimidator 305, go to Volcano and get a couple of rides in. Then get to Flight of Fear and Backlot Stunt Coaster. After that have fun because you will not have any trouble after that unless you want another ride on Volcano. -

This trim issue has almost made the thread as popular as the announcement day of the ride. And we all knew how that went. -

^ Even if they know what they are doing people make mistakes every day, plain and simple. No one in the world is perfect and especially no companies are perfect. Atleast they are doing something with their mistakes and fixing them. Unlike some who will act like nothing is wrong. -
I loved the finale last night and couldn't think of any other way they could have ended it better.

Man this thread sure blew up since I last checked it last night Since my place of work is making us take a furlough day on Friday I will be able to finally try out the trimmed drop. Still think it will be one of my favorite rides and people are overreacting. -
I don't know whether tonight's episode will be good or not. And the not being that this is the last time we will be seeing a new episode of Lost. But on a positive note it should be ending in an awesome way, well hopefully.

Well now that reports of people actually riding it I will say I am disappointed. But not that much, it is still a 300+ coaster that still goes pretty fast. I am still happy to have it at my home park! -

People can freak out over nothing. That picture with the crane could have been taken anytime between January and March. When someone actually rides it and it slows down on the drop, then I will believe it. And even with that I will probably have to ride it my self. -
Last night was definitely my favorite of the season and one of the top ones of all seasons. Sunday's finale should be awesome.

1. If you love theme parks and have the money, a park being crowded shouldn't stop you from going unless you have an option for another day. 2. I would just make sure to get there at opening and head straight for Hulk and Spiderman. And just in case, I do not know if this is an all time thing or just happened the two days I was there. The posted opening time was at 9 but they let everyone in at 8:45 with the rides open.

It has been that direct line for atleast a couple of seasons now. -

^^ When the park officially opens head straight to Firehawk and get on that and FoF. Then head to Invertigo, after that get to the Stunt Coaster and you should be fine the rest of the day. ^ Has Firehawk started opening later? When I was there last year in June it opened with the rest of the park. -

Rode last night with three other TPR members... lift hill was still fast and no trims what so ever. People are over reacting to nothing. It is still the same ride as it has been since opening day! -
^ There is 3 and a half hours left. An hour next Tuesday and 2 and a half hours on the finale Sunday. I loved last nights episode as well and thought it had many answers. And you have to assume someone else installed the wheel or when he turned into the smoke monster he did it.
