The "Preview" Thread

While the roto-shake provides a decent thrill I don't think SFI would add one to their parks after the maintenance problems SFA had with iron eagle. Yeah, and with all the maintenance problems Roto-shake's seem to have, I'm surprised that Zamperla still makes them. With that aside, I think something like an El loco would really add to the parks collection of rides as well as a S&S tower. BTW, do you think that the space that the Iwerks theater takes up would be big enough to fit a dark ride? I would love to see one there!

Another X-Shuttle update (and probably the last)- The supports on the back spike are done. As well as the supports for the launch track. It should be done very soon! -

^ That looks great! The only thing is that the second inversion seems a little "odd" for a Stand-up coaster to me. -

I'm currently working on a simple, launched X-Car in Nolimits. I don't really have a name for it right now, so right now I'm calling it "X Shuttle". The forward spike. The backwards spike, I'm working the supports as you can see. The whole layout. -

Kong at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Every ride Ive had on this coaster has been complete crap. There's not to much head banging, but holy crap does that thing love to beat you up! My whole body starts to hurt a little every time I get off that thing. -

Would a show on that lake make THAT much noise, I can just barely hear events that they do there from the parking lot. Im pretty sure that distance is just as close, if not closer than any of the neighbors. And besides, does this park need another year round show? They already have 8 or 9 if I'm not mistaken.

Well, even if they where to just removed one and not the other, they could still fit a pretty big flat or a compact coaster like a Zacspin into ether one of those spots. As for the bridge thing, its cool idea but if you look at the park from any map, you would see that any place where you could put a bridge ether- Blocked by a ride or show In a back stage/ storage area To far away to save you any walking And besides, the walk from the entrance to the Roar/V2 really isn't that far.

Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
Andrewoplis replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
So true! I got cused out by two different people by saying that X2 at Magic Mountain was rough and not that fun. But that was before I rode it few months ago, it was running amazing! -
