  1. When will their new plant be ready to be used?
  2. ^I haven't been to the park with zumanjaro opened so I don't quite know "how much" you can see behind kk. Is this something you would be able to see from there?
  3. I think I had never really noticed how slow it moves through the first inversions (despite already having heard of the slower launch).
  4. In theory shouldn't I305 be as complex (and, therefore, as reliable) as Millennium force? They're both gigas with cable lift hills and MF actually operates with more trains and was build 10 years before, so I would expect I305 to be as/more reliable than MF.
  5. Could you tell which ones? All I know is something about a woodie for ocean kingdom.
  6. Coming from someone who really likes cars, I also get the feeling their acceleration is nothing compared to intamin accelerator coasters.(for instance) I've been having driving lessons and sometimes, when going uphill I have to completely floor the gas pedal just to maintain the speed. Then as the uphill part gradually becomes flat or the cars gains some RPMs I can feel it starting to accelerate better but, as I have to respect the limits, I have to control myself (which is really hard and frustrating). I also have the constant desire to speed through the corners to get some lateral Gs.
  7. ^Where did you sit on KK? I went there last summer with flash pass and waiting for the front alone (once in the station) was around 20 minutes.
  8. Stairway To Heaven - Led Zeppelin
  9. ^Wow I had no idea that some of those would go upside down. Now it would be even more interesting if these was no counter weight, the speed on the bottom would be ridiculous!
  10. ^Now the question is if those pieces are for one of these coasters or even another one. That would be surprising.
  11. That's what I thought too. I believe that's why intamin lsm coasters like ispeed or the one in turkey crawl through the top hat.
  12. ^Isn't it around 570? Probably the next tallest one would go over 600.
  13. It's alive!
  14. I sorta mean the "old-style" ones. China gets a lot more, even if they are a bit less intense. They still look cool (Voyage and RFII are good coasters from what I've heard.) I get what you mean. Still, given that you already have a few of those there, I don't think I would mind getting these "new-school" ones now if I lived there.
  15. wicked twister
  16. A 2 hour queue line to find out the ride is closing when you're about to board it. What's worse than that?
  17. That's why I still maintain that I would like to see a new B&M standup one day. It looks like as soon as they got it right parks stopped buying them.
  18. ^Yeah, I honestly don't think that the heartlining thing would be much of an issue as some say. I think the opposite (going from a sitting coaster to a standup) would, but not really this.
  19. ^Interesting... I totally believe you as I've heard a few people saying it before but you can't really tell from the videos (at least the ones I've watched).
  20. ^Yeah, I know It just sounded funny.
  21. ^I was kidding, and yes, right now I can't think of one, but you never know....
  22. Do you find Gatekeeper more thrilling than Raptor? I'm not Danderson, but even if GK is a bit forceless and has some weird restraints, it has a unique layout. Hopefully, whatever Valleyfair gets, it isn't a typical cookie-cutter repeat of B&M elements a la Raptor. Fair enough. But some people (like me) honestly don't care that the layout may be bit cookie-cutter if it is as intense and good as raptor (when compared to Gatekeeper). For example, dragon khan has a layout which is a bit like kumba (except for the extra loop and a few obvious differences) and it's still my favourite ride as it is intense, has a nice pacing and length. Not to say you're wrong, you definitely have a point, just to show that it may not be so simple.
  23. You can NEVER say that about any ride! There is always a way that can be found to do it.
