Speaking of the B&M Roar I really like it! It freaked me out at Knott's when I walked up and they were testing Silver Bullet, its weird how quiet that ride is.

Its not a blue print, but here's a couple of photos of Adventuredome's Canyon Blaster. Canyon Blaster Canyon Blaster

It to me already stands out a lot more. But yeah I cant wait to see it completely done.

We couldn't even ask for a better weather that day. It was about 75 degrees we spent most of it in the ocean lol. We got there around 11am they were working on it all the way to around 4:30pm

LOL I'll fix that post. HAHA if I could tell that I think I would keep it to myself! But yeah I would love to Travel to the future and come back to tell you all if X2 is any better!

EDIT: Here are some Photos of the transformation of X to X2 that I took on 7/14/08

I was just in San Diego earlier and decided to go to Mission Beach. And I noticed there was some retracking going on. So I decided to take some pictures. Enjoy!

Hey everyone just stopped by the park today and took some pictures of X from outside the park. The ride seems to be about 50% painted. Looking really good. I will be back home on Thursday and I will post them. I also have a couple of shots of the painters. Were going to Disneyland tomorrow and I will have a photo TR up soon! Take care everyone!

Does anyone else think that Xcelerator is in desperate need of a new paint job?? It looks really faded in those pictures!!

Just a thought of a question, What kind of Vehicle does everyone drive? I drive a 2007 Chevy Cobalt Its white and a 2 door.

The very last ride on the World's Highest Roller Coaster The High Roller Stratosphere Tower Las Vegas. All the employees took one last spin on it December 30th 2005 Psyclone (SFMM) Lightning Bolt (MGM Grand Adventures) Whirlwind (Knoebeles) Oh yeah the Wacky Soap Box Racers at Knotts!

From Screamscape.com Park News - (12/6/07) Screamscape has heard that a contract with a demolition company has been signed for the destruction of Flashback. Look for it to vanish in the next couple of months.

I believe the OTSRs are still there because if you sit in the front seats of cars 2 3 or 4 the seat backs of the car in front of you come extremely close to your face while in the loop and the ending of the twist and dive segment of the ride.

Post from Screamscape.com 2008 to 2009 - Space Mountain: Mission 2 - Rumor - (11/27/07) The latest buzz about the upcoming Space Mountain rehab claims that “Mission 2” has been given the green light and that it looks like they will likely be gutting the entire inside of the mountain and rebuilding the ride from scratch. A possible plan to speed up the process may be to remove the “top” of the mountain itself to allow for the removal of the old ride more quickly and in much larger pieces than what would normally be able to fit through the 22 ft tall back door. The funny part of the this story however is that in much the same fashion that they put up covered scaffolding around the buildings in Epcot when they go under rehab, painted to look like how the exterior should look, they are considering a similar tactic for the top of Space Mountain to help hide the bald spot if they remove it. How does everyone feel about this? I actually love the way Space Mountain is at WDW.

I really miss MGM Grand Adventures in Las Vegas, It was a nice little park behind the MGM with an Indoor Coaster, Log Flume, Rapids Ride and a few other flat rides. And of course The Sky Screamer 250ft Sky Coaster. Man those were good times! Now all we have in Las Vegas are a couple of rides at a few of the casinos, and the Adventuredome. And for a local the Adventuredome can get old after a while. Since Las Vegas is heading towards more adult entertainment, we've seen a lot of places close like Scandia and Mountasia. I'm surprised that the Las Vegas Mini Grand Prix is still open. I wish that Vegas would have a major park, but again I don't mind heading to California every so often lol!

Last tuesday I went to see the Frontier Implosion in Vegas, I wont miss one again its really amazing what they can do with these buildings. The Videos dont do justice of the sound and feeling of seeing one of these in person. A big thing now with Vegas Implosions is the countdown in Fireworks on the Building Heres a couple of links to the Stardust Implosion and the Frontier Implosion. Leaving Las Vegas ^ This site is really detailed with the Las Vegas Implosion These Implosions were only 8 months apart. Vegas doesn't hold on to any history, I'm surprised they haven't touched downtown.

Tatsu Media Day, 7 rides without getting off! They were recording the B-Roll and they just kept on sending us out! It was great.

Been stuck quite a few times on various rides. My favorite was on Tatsu Media Day. Tatsu was lift stopped and I remember all of the camera crews running from everywhere to get footage of it. We were only on the lift for about 7 mins and then the ride restarted. That was the best. The most recent was Pirates at Disneyland. We were stuck on the lift at the end of the ride for about 45 mintutes.

The Roller Coaster At New York New York I'd rather they kept the name Manhattan Express!

Actually the Psyclone Logo wasn't taken off of the train this photo was taken on 10-26-07. The Psyclone logo was still on this train, not on the yellow one. Psyclone.bmp Psyclone logo.. Yep it's still there.

We made it fine out here, A little smoky but everything is fine. Today was just a trip to Huntington Beach. Six Flags TOMORROW!!! Disney on Saturday. I will post a Photo TR once i get home. I hope everyone is doing well.

We just might end up doing that instead of San Diego
