The "GP" of Theme Parks Facebook Thread!
IronWolfman replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
On DL FB: "12 people on a single ride that takes an average of 8 minutes is ridiculous (load/ride/unload)..." Um, since when did it take 8 Minutes to load/ride/unload a S&S shot tower!?! -
Wow, I never realized how much the GP of DL like Viper. Recently I've been watching DL stuff (No idea why) but people are saying it everywhere! It seems like most of the online GP of DL considers Viper equivalent with ROS, some even like it better. I don't know if you care about this, I just think it's pretty cool, as a Arrow fan myself. I've also heard that DL Viper is much smoother since it's been under HFE-level maintenance. Maybe Arrow's don't age as bad as we think they do, maybe it's just park maintenance (as in SF & CF level will lead to unpleasant experience). I also like the Launch Tower addition, I think it'll be great for the park.

You should rehab the Arrow Looper and be different than other parks. -

Strangest layouts
IronWolfman replied to Her0ofLime's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The Ultimate's first half looks like it MIGHT have airtime.... ....and the second half looks like you MIGHT not get whiplash if you've developed a usable-on-a-coaster brace-for-impact position. I've always thought Iron Wolf's layout was kinda weird due to the first half being forceful with a loop-turnaround-360 (Sounds like Gerstlaur, doesn't it?) Then through what looks like it could have been a MCBR (It probably was going to be before they realized they couldn't load that fast) And then into a Whippy Corkscrew before it vanishes into graceful transitions through the woods. I don't know, it just seems... different. ...and Awesome -

Anyone else see this? http://www.cedarpoint.com/blog-article/online-fun/Mean-Streak-is-less-Mean Now, if the can keep this as smooth as it is, they can remove the trims! -
I don't know which coaster was the first with an underground tunnel, but I do know that The Beast predates Hades by a few decades. As for wood/steel and topper track... the track rests on stacked lumber, just like a woodie. The top layer of the stack isn't wood. That to me isn't THAT different than a stack of lumber with a steel rail on top, like a regular woodie. Just my $0.02 I meant of the most recent woodies with a underground tunnel, Hades was before the Voyage.
