^^That brings me to another question lol In that LA Times article it says SFMM was going to do something to the trains to make them spin more? What are they going to do and why didn't they already do it, to have the trains spinning at there max upon opening?

^ I don't think that video should be here. Violates guidelines.
I'm just asking a question here not telling anyone how to run there site...But why is it ok for videos/pics that's in violation of park policy ok to be posted to a parks own facebook page and they say nothing about it's against their policy I've actually see a few give props to the poster saying nice pic or vid, but when a video/pic against park policy is posted to a enthusiast web site it's a problem.
Is it b/c it's the GP usually posting it to a parks Facebook and enthusiast are held to a higher standard b/c being an enthusiast parks feel we should know better and the GP is GP and not going to follow the rules even though they're right in their face and being blasted in their ears.

Is that Ride Hopper APP pretty reliable? If so SFMM must be having some opening day issues with Green Lantern b/c the app is saying the ride is down along with Tatsu. I know it's not uncommon for a new ride to have kinks I just hope it's running when I get there later today when it's a little cooler out, hoping to stop by for a few hours to get my GL credit hopefully Tatsu is back up hit that and X2 and I'm out

^ You say you don't think this coaster will have many i305 elements, yet your own drawing looks like a mini i305
I don't think anyone ever thought this would be a mini i305 clone, but it does look like it will share some similarities with i305. Like the lift hill with the two support towers, the first drop and turn, the twisties so I don't see why it such a problem when someone says this coaster resembles a mini i305 when in a lot of ways it does.
Is there another layout some where beside the supposed figure 8 layout?
-
Thanks
Just keep playing with it and you'll get the hang of it, trust me when I first started I was like WTF I'll never be able to figure this out and over time you develop your skills, I had given up on the game more then once lol but I would always go back like I am going to figure this Shtt! out lol.

From the vids I've seen on youtube CP versions seams to be the only one doing this at least to this extreme, maybe it has something to do with it being right next to the water and the winds that come off of it. Either way if Knotts version is doing that they won't have to worry about me on it lol. I can ride any coaster but that the way it's moving in that video looks like it may be a little to freaky for me.

Sorta like this

Ok so doesn't anyone know if Green Lantern has tested yet?

^Where is the LIKE button lol

Those two colors together are not to appealing Imo, looks like someone put mustard baby poop on top of baby blue supports

RUMOR (possible name): Wild Eagle
Oh so I guess Dolly didn't like my names Wild Turkey Moonshine or Blue Butterfly

I don't go to my mailbox often so I was extremely excited to see my first ever TPR Bag-of-Crap in the box Thanks Robb
But now my post is crap compared to the one IloveRides posted lol

I was looking at some of those SF survey names posted on Screamscape and one in particular caught my eye was OMG! 400, I know that's most likely not a real name they would use, but could it be a hint that they are thinking of adding some kind of 400 foot tall ride maybe to a park that was just rumored to be getting a big thrill ride in 2012?

After watching that I am now Hypnotized and under TPRs control lol
That is a impressive light package

I'm hoping it's the Worlds Tallest Starflyer, I hate drop rides so I could care less if they ever get one of those.
And I couldn't care less if they got a starflyer. Sans the lower cost and portability, I can see no reason why any park would take a starflyer over a drop tower. The GP and enthusiasts alike would totally eat up a 350ft+ drop tower. On my last visit to SFDK, V2 and Kong's wait was between 45 and 90 minutes all day, Medusa between 60 and 120 minutes, with Sky Screamer's wait at a measly 30-45 minutes. In addition, the most litered item I saw all day was Sky Screamer Fequent Flyer Cards. (Apparently no one had any desire to ride again) Drop towers have better capacity and they are more hair-raising rides. (Actually, your post kind of just proves why SFMM SHOULD get a drop tower. If you are freaked out by them, imagine how many people it would scare!)
Like they say everyone has their own opinion! I've been on Millie /I305 and plenty of coasters over 200 foot I'm not at all freaked out by a drop tower I just don't like them, well I like the S&S towers that blast off from the ground what is that a Turbo shot? I may ride a Drop tower once when it's new to the park or someone in my group wants to get on but other then that once is enough for me.I'm a coaster man I'm more then happy with SFMM being a coaster park. SFMM has had many many years to get a drop ride yet they haven't, I was just suggesting the Worlds Tallest StarFlyer since that seams to be what SF is interested in at the moment and what would interest me more, but it could be a Drop Ride Finally or even a 300 foot tall Tilt-a-whirl for all we know.

After looking at that figure 8 layout for Hershey's 2012 coaster, I realized KDcoasterMan was right it does seam to have a first drop and turn more like i305. Also with the reworked layout the ride does come closer to what QueerRudie said about the ride being 5500 feet in length. So here's VERSION 2.

Hershey Parks SuperNova
This is based off of the figure 8 layout that's floating around the net of Hershey's possible 2012 Intamin Hyper coaster.
212 feet tall, 4628 feet in length Enjoy!

Looks like Intamin Intamin Intamin
2012 is looking like it's going to be Epic and not just b/c the world is ending lol j/k
I love that baby blue on those supports, can't what to see what color the track will be.

^I agree I don't understand whats with peoples obsession over there with it being a penis or penises in the box, over half of the post on there refer to that... weird.

A bit random here, but how much did El Toro cost? I can't find it, sorry!
I i am not 100% sure but i think it was 17 million.
It was 12 million
I doubt El Toro cost only 12 mil that only 2 million more the Apocxernator @SFMM
That the same thing that pisses me off while trying to ride RRv is all the stupid people who hold up the line by bouncing in the seats and making the ups lock and unlock a million times before they can dispatch a train.
-
Yeah I was going to say the trains have been on site for a while now, my bet is on a giant lantern for the Green lantern plaza packed in with a Tilt- a- Whirl
