TheStig replied to niiicolaaah's topic in Random, Random, Random
Yeah I think its in Clearwater actually! Nice PTR Nicole, and if you are so bored in the offseason, maybe get a job working as a leaf vaccum-er? -
^Oh yes, it was you =]

Hey guys! Some of you have already seen Matt, Piers and Erik's photo TR's from the Orlando weekend. I was there also, but only for Friday and Saturday. It was a blast and everyone had a great time, even if someone was a bit "special" one night! Anyways, on to the photos... Sigh....one day Dinosaur World, one day....Thanks for reading! Dont forget about the drowned bodies floating next to their sunken van! Inside the train room, a little operational carnival! Bouncy-Bouncy it is not.......LARRY! Sorry Justin, but the whole world needs to see this picture! Really though, this tower is sick. Any one of you would look like this on it, trust me! And this is why! 4 of the 6 bravest people I have ever seen in my life. Catrina and I sat this one out! Robb doing what he does best. Talk about skillful! All hail the mighty Power-Surge! Stacy trying aswell, oh well, this is one case where "Its not me, its you" would work. Larry trying really hard to snap these things. I dont even think Ted was able to snap these! I could be wrong though... Impossible-to-snap flying scooters time. It sucked on epic levels of failure. Aww poo, spinning mouse time. The coaster that three hurricanes could not tear down...how extreme. Apparently they didnt spin at all, but did get rather wet at the splashdown. This might just be a horrible idea! Just a simple out-and-back layout. It fits in well with the park, but Im not so sure that this is the "Saving grace" the park needs. Thats just me though... Having never ridden it at Miracle Strip, I thought it was a pretty decent ride. It was kind of boring on the return run, but christ, two of the hills had some major ejector airtime. Here is what we are here for! Starliner! Unlike this guy who just sat out in the sun and melted for 30 minutes untill everyone else showed up! Over at Cypress, Matt and I take full advantage of the ice cold ATM booth. Matt and Larry, two of the most bubbly, slap-happy, energetic, spaztastic people you will ever meet! Hello, Nicole. Chuck with majorly cut off Montu. Some of the gang headed over to Montu. Robb and Dave (TPdave) in the back there. Too bad it did in Erik Johnson and I for pretty much the rest of the day. Up next was this beauty, oh baby. ...Gwazi was dueling! It wasn't running horrible either, but it was running "normal". It was kind of a bleh looking sky, but there was one good thing about today... The next day was BGT and CG. I tried to convince everyone into going to Dinosaur World, but not even Dave seemed interested! MOTHERLOAD! My camera fails at taking night shots, but I thought this one of the shovel guys was pretty cool. This was also the first time I have seen the "Boo To You" parade aswell. I was pretty impressed, even if I did make an ass of myself in front of everyone when I kissed Cruella DeVille's hand! I had never seen hallowishes before, and I have to say it was rather amazing. Reeeccctummmmm. Space Mountain night rides were absolutely amazing, you should all try it out sometime. First order of business, Its A Small World! I started my weekend at MNSSHP with everyone. Main street looked pretty amazing all decorated like this!

Photo TR: A short Florida Halloween trip.
TheStig replied to Erik Johnson's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
^See, I promised you that we would have quality time together to make up for Chicago, and that was it! There was room for one more, but we'll get to that in my PTR... -
^^A FourThree? A three seat car? They made the FourFour for a reason you know! Also, might wanna check out the Peel P50. It might be a substitute for what you are looking for. Seriously dude, listen to what everyone has told you. I drove a Buick Park Avenue for a year and it felt very safe. I would have been totally afraid to drive a car like the Smart my first year. Just get a toyota, or even one of those Scions if you want a smaller car.

Nice pictures Erik, and who's lovely Mercedes is that? I agree with Justin, 4 laps of Fiesta Express was rather awesome. Im putting it WAY up there on my steel poll this year. Oh, and dont hate because ATM booths are for cool people only. Look for my pictures later. -
To avoid changing ANY clocks, and to further my lazyness, I have my VCR (yes, I have a VCR!) clock set to daylight savings time and a regular clock set to non-daylight savings time. All I have to do Sunday is look at a different clock!

Im only in this PTR once, so it fails! Nice pictures Matt.

^Only you.

^ $11,000 for the standard model, $16,500 for the delux super death box. Too effing much if you ask me.

^^^Who says you arn't going to drive on the highway? Trust me, you are going to atleast once. I've seen Smartcars, I know about them and I know there are a ton safer car's out there. Hell, I bet even a Fiat Panda is safer than that thing! Im not going to say any more, because obviously its not getting through to you, but good luck. You will need it. We dont get ANY of those! Im sure you can import them, and there might be a few dealerships, but you'd never see one commonly on the steets here.

^Of COURSE they are going to tell you that, they are trying to both sell you the car AND bring it to America! You know what, go ahead and buy one, see what happens when you are driving down I-75 and get a flat, careen off the side of the road and die. You're 16, you are bound to get into an accident and this isn't the car to do it in.
-
Dude, just look at it, the thing is goofy to the max. If you want a car that size, get a Mini. Keep in mind that Smartcars are intended to be used on little European roads which have little European parking spots and little European speed limits. So if your little European car comes to the big roads of the US, chances are that everyone will laugh at you. If they dont laugh at you, the first accident you get in will surely be with an SUV and take your head off. So in otherwords, if you want to die and the main reason being "He was driving a Smartcar", go for it. Otherwise, get something a little more "American-sized". Trust me, you'd be much happier with a VW GTi, Honda Civic, Mini-cooper or even a friggin Ford Focus then you ever would be with this car. Also, take a look at this, make sure you watch the ENTIRE THING and listen to what it says: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ju6t-yyoU8s

I think that my 190 could eat one of those.

RIP, Masked_Maverick, Daniel T.Miller
TheStig replied to dandaman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow, this is really shocking. Its sad that it just happened so quickly. Its hard to think that he could still be alive if the driver was only paying attention to the road. RIP man. Also, has anyone tried to contact CP yet?
