Some of these look really cool. I could probably work on this from my schools digital design class, but I'm already making a candy bar wrapper. If I get the chance, I may be able to do it though.

my dad went to "triple a" plus we have to figure in car costs and hotels, unless I can find someone to carpool with it still won't work out. Do you have a link to the site with that or a similar deal? If it doesn't work out though, are you guys still doing an east coast trip? If so are there still spots on that, or can I meat you at sfne or cannobie? *UPDATE* I found a really cheap flight, they want $253.00 . Is there still time to register?

I can't go, my parents said it was to much to fly.

^That's what me and my dad were wondering. Are there hotels in between both parks, and what's the distance from knotts and magic mountain.

Ok, It's either yay or nay for tonight. I'll know later on and then register tonight if it's gonna work out.

My dad will be calling "AAA". I think it might work out. I'll probably put in later this week.

That makes a lot of sense, who goes to a big theme park to play mini-golf? It could be cool if you don't like rides or have small children but I just never see anyone playing golf at parks when they have a mini golf course.

^ Ok coo! And I'm assuming the best way to register is online?

Would my dad be considered a guest? He isn't a member of TPR, but I need him to come with me because If I go I'm flying from New Hampshire. Does he need to register for the site?

The rainbows end park looked small and had simplistic feels to it until I saw that massive drop tower. Looks like a cool park!

Great job with wicked twister so far! I'm in drafting at my school, but the teacher is terrible and makes us do stuff the old fashioned way.

I really love what you are doing with all of this. Keep up the good work! It so neat to see all the styles and things from the 70's and on!

Flashback at SFNE. It just isn't that great, and with it's new not so hot paint job, it looks worse than ever. I don't see why they put the stock in the ride, when they could invest in something else, like a euro fighter!

That art shot, was actually very good. I would just edit out the trashcan. Keep the good coaster photos coming!

- Most memorable coaster moment: Riding El-Toro in the dark with my dad and getting our faces wet with water, but thinking it was puke.

Whenever I get on a racing coaster, someone pukes or comes close to puking. On Gemini at cedar point, somebody barfed on red, so I only got to ride blue. At SFGAv on rolling thunder I had a flash pass and some little kid was waiting in the flash pass line for a while. The op noticed that it was set for 2 people, (my dad sat that one out because he was tired), so the opp let the kid ride with me. It was ok, until I started talking with him and he told me it was his first coaster. After the first hill, the kid turned white and had his head to the side of the train. I looked at him the hole ride because I did not want to get showered in vomit. He was ok though, and we hit the brake run and he started laughing. I wanted to scream at him. To top it off, the trains weren't that synchronized when they dispatched, and some lady getting of El-Toro threw up right next to my dad. So let's just say I jinx the racing coasters.

On that blue coaster themed like a race car, there was this spot of crooked track on the decent that looked really dangerous.

Pax, Means peace in Latin, but this coaster looks anything but peaceful. I guess I can't pass complete judgment though due to the fact that I have never ridden one. It's a good concept, but It looks very intense. Overall, a challenging looking credit. Has anyone ever had a chance to ride a Pax Coaster?

They must be expecting alot of lines for this ride. Look at the distance from the station to the entrance. Also as some of you have said, I wouldn't put to much stock into the other images. Overall, even more great pics!

^ I always thought that coaster was new. But I guess its been going since 1971. Did they re-theme it?

^ That definitely gave me a better idea of the layout. Thanks!

I'm getting wicked excited. I think my parents will let me go.

Definitely! Can't we start social groups on this site as well? I think it would be a cool way to post coaster art and regular art too.

Whats cool about this, their constant use of scenery and man made valleys will definitely help complement the dark and scary theme. It truly is a win-win situation. I was not aware however that there are noise restrictions. Is it because of the local hotels and stuff?

Well, that and I rode El Toro. It's easy to get hyped up about a coaster if it's a record holder, but as I said, I thought about it, and it really is rather repetitive. I'm perfectly capable of forming my own opinions.
