[RCT3] Tennessee's Great America
I305KD replied to fraroc's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Wow! Vampyre looks awesome! It seems like a mix of Mind Bender at FOG and Lisebergbanen at Liseberg. Fireball is really cool too! This is SO much better than Kings Paradise. Great work! -
I HATE ND with all my heart. So I gotta go Bama. Just angry my Scarlet Knights are in the crappy Russell Athletic Bowl. On another note, thid year's Cotton Bowl should be interesting! I can't wait to see how Johnny Manziel plays in his first bowl game!

Elementary School Shooting in Newtown, Connecticut
I305KD replied to SoCalCoasters's topic in Random, Random, Random
Death toll at 28. So sad. I know that this is a roller coaster site, but I feel that roller coasters can take the back seat for today. Now it time to pray for the victims of this tragedy. May the victims R.I.P -

The Campaign - This movie was HILARIOUS! Marty Huggins (Zach Galafinakis) was the best. Skyfall - Best new James Bond movie in a long time. One of the awesomest movies ever! The Other Guys - HILARIOUS!!! My 2nd favorite movie! Miracle - A movie about the 1980 USA hockey team. I think I'm the only one that watches it but being the hockey fan I am..... What can I say! It's awesome!

Apparently people in the U.S. are unaware of what "true" Hair-time feels like(outside El Toro). If these started popping up, B&M-megas will look like child's-play. But, I thought B&M Megas already were childs play. But I think that the closest thing to a mega-lite, and that's as close as we will get, is Skyrush. A smaller version of a giga with great forces and insane airtime. I think that Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit doesn't get enough love from alot of people. Yes, they did over use the brake runs, but the ride has great forces and airtime.

Alright, alright, I worded it wrong. I meant they look insanely painful.

If every time you walk into Ikea, you think of Liseberg. -
The "Pleasant/Unpleasant Surprise" Thread
I305KD replied to cfc's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Pleasent Surprises: Hurler at KD - I was so scared about riding this. I thought I was going to die. But as it turns out, the ride was perfectly fine! It wasn't smooth by any means, but a woodie isn't supposed to be! Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit at Universal Florida - I heard bad things about this ride, so I wasn't excited about it. But, I was proved wrong. This thing had great airtime and awesome g forces! Yes, the brake runs were a bit excessive, but at least there was airtime going into them! Goliath at SFNE - I purposly waited till the summer to ride this because I've never been on one of these before. I was expecting a rough ride, but it rocked! The cobra roll was great, and the vertical lifts were unbelievable. It actually makes my top 25! Unpleasent Surprises: Millennium Force at CP - Sorry, but the airtime isn't great on this. Sure it's a top 10 ride, but the layout is boring and the ride is way to hyped up. I'll take I305, Skyrush, and Bizarro over this anyday. It doesn't deserve to be the best in the world. Griffon at BGW - Yeah, the drop and first immelman were good, but after that, the ride meanders around the entire time. It's relaxing for me. -

Nickelodeon Streak @ Pleasure Beach, Blackpool? -
Most. OverRated. Ride. of 2012.
I305KD replied to Chroniq's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Sorry B&M, but it's gotta be Swarm. No forces toward the end. What a surprise there. I love B&M one of my favorite companies (behind Rocky Mountain, Intamin, Gravity Group, GCI, and CCI), but there work has been just horrible. They don't build rides like Raptor, Talon, Alpengeist, Incredible Hulk, Nemesis, Kumba, Montu, Green Lantern (yes the one at SFGAdv), or Kraken anymore. Those rides are full of intense forces and great pacing. Have you seen Black Mamba doing that lately. Didn't think so. Sorry, but the people at Rocky Mountain Coasters are coming up with new stuff. Successful woodie with inversions, 170 foot airtime filled hybrid coasters, etc. B&M has the same elements that they used on coasters from the 1990s. That is all. -Darren "I love RMC!!!" Katz- -

Best View From A Lift Hill
I305KD replied to bubala's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's not a lift hill but I'll put it up anyway. The view from the top of Top Thrill Dragster is stunning. Seeing all the rides and coasters below you is awesome. And looking over the water is great too! It may be quick, but it is still breathtaking. -
So, you say that they HAVE painful layouts, then you say that the Butterfly loop LOOKS insane... A very strange layout that I particularly like is that of the Hersheypark Great Bear. It's not because of the pre-drop spiral, or the strategically-constructed supports, but because of the maneuvering after the zero-G roll. You get a very interesting perspective of it while standing in Sooperdooperlooper's queue. I've never ridden Manhattan Express, but it seems like it would be a great coaster if it wasn't manufactured by TOGO. Yes they have painful looking layouts and the Butterfly Loop looks insanely painful. That's what I was trying to point out.

Ninja at SFOG and Goudurix at Parc Asterix have awkward and painful layouts. That butterfly loop looks crazy.

Great Trip Report! KI seems to be a great park. I hope to get there one day to ride Diamondback and The Beast! -
Favorite "themed lands"?
I305KD replied to Bryce's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I like all the lands at IOA. But, I particularly like Wizarding World Of Harry Potter and Marvel Superhero Island. Great park overall. But, nothing compares to Disney! -
What is your favorite launch coaster?
I305KD replied to EuroTre's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Storm Runner, Volcano, and Incredible Hulk are all really good.
