  1. I guess you can get a dominatrix vibe from those trains...
  2. Is one of the trains black covers with red ridge, and the other red cover with black ridge? Can't really tell from the camera angle. Either way, it looks awesome!
  3. Reminds me of waking up first thing in the morning and groggily shuffling to the bathroom Can't wait to see it all warmed up after a shower and coffee!
  4. I had figured the strips were there since the track was painted in the first place. The paint in those places is going to get worn off anyway, so why bother painting it? Saves a few bucks.
  5. If they're going to put anything at the bottom of the drop, it better be this:
  6. This should be a fun one to see go up. I'm always fascinated by how many supports Premier coasters have; this one is sure to be another maze of blue!
  7. I still eagerly look forward to the day they take the shipping padding off the restraint bars. They still look quite ridiculous.
  8. Mine combines my love of El Toro with the ridiculousness of Six Flags' ad wraps.
  9. Those covers are the only surface I can think of that could be used when it comes time to promote things like Karate Kid or Stride. Well apparently we won't have to worry about that, at least for the time being. Looks like all sorts of Six Flags parks are taking off their ad wraps.
  10. I'll chew a whole pack of Stride gum out of mourning.
  11. I still look forward to the day when the cross-beam covers get shipped
  12. Oh, wow, you guys are still going at it. I guess I'll just head back to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.
  13. Wow, that zero-car looks awesome! Certainly a lot better than what I've seen in the concept art. Is the floor of that front car not installed yet or something? Not really sure what's going on in that picture.
  14. Absolutely heavenly photos! I don't know if I'll be able to handle it once this starts testing. Was Great Bear running at all this weekend? I didn't see any trains in any of the photos.
  15. Semi-Charmed Life? I bet it's Semi-Charmed Life. That's like the #1 "I Didn't Realize It Was About Meth" song.
  16. Just had a rather confusing and somewhat frightening moment with a crazy conspiracy theorist. I was waiting at the train station for the cab I called to pick me up, and to pass the time I texted my girlfriend, as I am wont to do. This guy came up to me, wearing a stained sweatshirt, dried spittle around his mouth, a lazy eye (which I was mistakenly focusing on for half of the conversation; I thought he was just pensively staring off into the middle distance until I realized he was looking at me), and he was chain-smoking at an alarming rate. Anyway, he was completely incensed at the fact that I was texting and being 'sucked in' by the phone, and kept saying how smartphones are an Illuminati conspiracy to make people dumber; he was stressing the Illuminati part big time. I just wanted him to go away, so I was just saying "Oh, I don't know, okay, sorry for being such a sheep, etc.". Luckily my cab called as he was ranting, and I said, "This is a bad time, but my cab is calling me." and he said "No, go ahead, that's what phones are for!", and he just sort of wandered off... What.
  17. In Storm Runner's debut year, I waited about an hour and a half, and I didn't even get to go on it I was there with my middle school for Music in the Park or whatever it's called. I had about 90 minutes before I had to be wherever it was I needed to be with my Concert Band, so I decided to try out this newfangled ride. As I got closer to the front, I got more anxious because I thought I was going to be late for the thing I had. Well I was almost there, when the ride broke down about 1 cycle away from me getting on. Admitting defeat, I had to go back through the entire line. But then I rode it the next year and it was amazing
  18. It's a loop and an Immelmann from a funky angle. It does look pretty sweet though
  19. The close-up of the zero-G roll (fourth from bottom) is close enough that it could conceivably be seen as a really twisty element on a sit-down. Now why doesn't B&M do that??
  20. ^ Wow it sounds like you're living with a bunch of Good Guy Gregs. I'm envious. Also, next year Skull is moving out, and I'm much friendlier with the guy who's moving in (anti-Skull), and he professes to be a neat freak, so that sounds promising.Though annoying, Bulk's drawbacks are mostly harmless. Plus, in the immortal words of Kim Pine, "At least it'll give us something to complain about." New update on the Great Macaroni Kitchen Siege: Skull made M&C again two days ago, and I'm besieging the hell out of it. Well, he decided to make M&C again tonight, but I had used our other big pot to make some halfway-decent chicken penne alfredo, though he could've used it because it was on the drying rack because I actually clean sh*t in a timely manner (quick aside: our two big pots have built-in colanders in the lid. Skull somehow didn't pick up on this for two months, always using the much harder to clean plastic colander). Anyway, he used a third pot plus the colander, so now the sink is completely filled up with his dishes. Ladies and gentlemen, this man is going to Columbia Law School next year. Try not to need a lawyer for the next 20 years or so.
  21. Bringing this thread back from the grave. Screamscape has a bit to say on the matter: Layout: If you ask me, that looks like the best placement of an inversion that I can think of for this type of ride: Right at the end where nobody would expect it!
  22. There are Internet Explorer commercials?
  23. Going off of what knowledge I may have: -8 cars per train I believe -Well based on its placement, it would be most efficient to travel underneath the bridge. -Left: Exit. Middle: Front row or perhaps single rider. Right: Everyone else. Hope this helps!
