Clementon Discussion Thread

I saw they plan to retrack Hellcat...maybe not for this season but definitely next. If they can full retrack it, and remove those trims on the drop, the ride has a lot of potential. The layout is actually really good, the roughness and then trims just killed it. -
That was a lot of fun! Thank you TPR and William for being excellent hosts and must do this again soon. -Jake "I was just there to beat Adam" Garbles

Fantastic pictures and story telling as always Andy! Learned a lot from your report. Im sad this park was closed due to weather (while Energylandia stayed open) so I missed out on it. But Lech Coaster definitely looks worth the trip back. And while Tornado does the underground barrel roll through the station, this one looks a little more effective and visually pleasing! They are just European cousins

In other good news, an operator has been selected to run the park. While SFM is a nice park, Six Flags did not win and I'm happy to see a competitor in the region. Hope they can restore the woodie, the park, and be successful! The winner is Mota-Engil México. https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=es&u=https://www.eluniversal.com.mx/metropoli/la-sedema-anuncia-la-empresa-ganadora-para-nuevo-proyecto-en-la-feria-de-chapultepec&prev=search&pto=aue

Dollywood Discussion Thread

Ah, so you are the one person in the world that gets to define what a wood coaster is! While I'm fine with all of the RMCs being classified as hybrids, is is a true statement that topper track and I-box rides feel quite different from each other. Topper track definitely feels more like a woodie vs. a perfectly smooth steel I-box. But at the end of the day, like Bill said, who cares?!? The track could be made out of anything as long as it is fun. -

So it's basically an I-box coaster now...the only topper track between the launch and brake run will be the first 2 wave turns? The 45 degree airtime hill is right after the 2nd wave turn thing lol. Why even bother? Make it all I-box and be done with it. -
SeaWorld San Antonio Discussion Thread

Definitely agree with you Bill, seems like nudging it forward would have easily cleared the course. Taking people out of those cars at that exposed height seems risky. But according to a reddit user on the ride, they removed a few riders then pushed it backwards onto the launch track. Guess nothing was broken then, just balanced on top... -
The Jet Star at Lagoon...can't ride by yourself. Luckily I knew the policy, and asked a nice group of 3 if I could ride with them. With only 4 of us we had enough space to not be touching, so that worked out. Pro-covid of course.

Welcome to the new TPR Forum!

Looks really good on the computer! Love the modern look but with the same forum layout/sections we all know and love. Makes the transition easy for the user. Love the new features you shared, especially for mobile. That should make visiting the forum on my phone a lot more enjoyable. And the reactions will be fun Edit -> The notifications are sweet, like being able to log in and see who replied/reacted to my posts.
