Retired Coasters
viking86 replied to pgathriller's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I dont think many people would care if they scrapped Magnus Colossus @ Terra Mitica. It has one of the most awesome locations ever for a coaster, but unfortunately its not very exciting at all. They could have built something really exciting in its place. -
Several of the vekoma slc's have really ugly colors. Some examples: http://www.rcdb.com/ig149.htm?picture=2 http://www.rcdb.com/ig158.htm?picture=1 But then theres some which looks really great too: http://www.rcdb.com/ig1799.htm?picture=29

Im a big soccer fan btw. I dont play any organized soccer, but I play with my friends once in a while. My favorite club is SK Brann from Bergen. Last season was awesome. We won the cupfinal and we came 3rd in the league -

Haha I actually watched the entire first half and parts of the second half on TV. The score was 1-1 when I left. It sounds like you had a great day, too bad your team lost. -
Weird Coaster Facts
viking86 replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Height has nothing to do with intensity. Heres an example: This coaster: http://www.themeparks.ie/fairs/2004fund/speed1.htm http://www.themeparks.ie/fairs/2004fund/speed2.htm is alot more intense than this coaster: http://www.rcdb.com/ig1366.htm?picture=20 -
Floorless Coasters....Great or Hype?
viking86 replied to ChrisFL's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think the floorless trains are great. The front is awesome because theres nothing in front of you. I also like that theres nothing to put your legs on. -

What's your favorite Flat ride?
viking86 replied to FlyingScooter's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I totally forgot about the Rock-o-Plane that came with the fair last year. That ride was the craziest, funniest, most painfull ride Ive ever been on. I cant decide if I love it or hate it... -

Anybody ever been on a roller coaster...
viking86 replied to Three's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Its obvious that you havent read any ride reports about Thundercoaster..... OUCH! I still love the ride though -
I thought the backwards lift on Stunt Fall @ WBMW Madrid was pretty damn scary the first time. It was my first shuttle coaster, and it just went steeper and steeper. But the rest of the ride was just fun

The government in Thailand wants to build an amusement park in Khao Lak, one of the areas that was heavily damaged by the tsunami. One of the main attracions will be a close-encounter with a simulated giant wave. The reason they are building this park, is not only to thrill guests, but also to learn people about tsunamies. People all over the world are reacting after the plans of a memorial museum were cancelled and they decided to build an amusement park instead. I only have a link to a norwegian site, but Im sure its possible to find some translators out there http://pub.tv2.no/nettavisen/verden/article356997.ece

RCT4?
viking86 replied to coasterdude5's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
The problem is that they did an awful job with RCT3. It runs like crap on my computer, while games like Half Life 2 runs perfectly... -
