What's your most hated coaster company?
simaticable replied to mrlego611's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Oh, come on--Vekoma has done far worse than that. For example: SFOG's Ninja -

Looks to be another great Schwarzkopf, but then again, when is there not one? (Revolution doesn't deserve to be treated the way it's treated.) -

Congrats Falcons, I hope you realize that you guys need some serious work on your defense. Losing 3 in a row, wow. I hope this game is a wake up call. -

It's great that El Loco is already up on vertical construction. It shouldn't take long until it's done. -
Knoebels Discussion Thread
simaticable replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I imagine something similar to that. While Flying Turns has a smaller hourly output than Gate Keeper, Cedar Point is also much larger than Knoebels. I could see lines up to six hours for tomorrow. -
GA Cyclone. Out of all the Six Flags parks, SFOG is one of the few to not feature a new wooden coaster or hybrid from GCI, RMC or even Intamin. Let's see: SFOT: NTAG SFFT: IRat SFGAm: Goliath SFGAdv: El Toro SFMM: Apocalypse and Iron Colossus SFStL: American Thunder SFM: Medusa: Steel Coaster SFA & SFDK: Roar(even if they aren't the best coasters) Point is, only SFNE, La Ronde, and The Great Escape are the only three other Six Flags parks that don't have a wooden coaster from these three manufacturers. At the very least, convert all the track to Topper Track, give the coaster new trains from RMC, and turn it back into the insanely fun ride it supposedly was before it was neutered by Six Flags..

100 Best Roller Coasters
simaticable replied to gisco's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I wouldn't count half of these rides as the top 100. They just took a list of 100 random and well-known coasters, put them in alphabetical order, and said it was the list of the best 100. They didn't even check to make sure that the picture matched the coaster they were talking about. Anyways, I got 5/100. -
It would cost much more money for the park to refurbish the track than for a new coaster. When Astroworld closed, the coaster was not disassembled correctly, and most of the track was heavily damaged. Also, the track has been sitting out in the elements for so many years that it is more valuable as scrap metal than a coaster.

Heide Park Discussion Thread

For a permanent coaster, this has to be the fastest construction in a while. This thing just flew up there in no time. Huge props to the construction crew on this.
