Jealous of all the snow! All the Midwestern resorts have closed already, or are about to.

Hopefully the lighting package is just as impressive as The Windseeker/Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket, if not more! -

2 of the trains are now on the track and testing should begin in a few weeks. The LED lights look cool being situated on the sides of the seats, and the "big boy" seats are in row 4.http://www.cedarpoint.com/blog-article/online-fun/These-Trains-Are-On-Track -
New B&M trains on Steel Dragon

That's one of the slowest restraint checks ever, and Why do they clean the seats off? Those shin bars look much bigger than I originally anticipated from the pictures! -
Has anyone ever been to a Pole Position Raceway, or another place like that? The karts had speeds 45+ MPH on a twisted 1/4 mile track. Easily the best ride, other than a roller coaster that is!

I really hope it's ready by then since I am visiting the park in August. More seriously, at least it is another credit. If its not done by August, I'll boycott the place! -

Six Flags mentioned on their Facebook page that Boomerang " is under construction and will not be ready until June 1st." Do I sense an opening date? -

Favorite Defunct Roller Coaster/Ride

That looks like its got some intense laterals being banked like that! -
Definitely the Bonzai Pipeline. Being closed up in that capsule is terrifying, especially seeing through the floor at all that rushing water. The ride ops just make it worse through the mic and speaker. I do have to say, those were the best/ smoothest body slides I've ever been on. Top Thrill Dragster also made my heart stop for a second after the launch.

Six Flags America (SFA) Discussion Thread

The membership is like a season pass with no commitment after 12 months. It only charges a small fee every month, but you get most of the same benefits as a season pass. Technically, after you're out of the 12 month commitment, you could go unlimited times in 1 month for a very low price then stop the membership. -
Safari. IE has way too much lag, and I don't like using chrome or Firefox. All I do is browse/watch YouTube/check work schedules and bank statements, nothing too intensive to warrant using one with more features.

Saw the boomerang for the first time today from the highway, and it is VERY noticeable from the road ( even the cobra roll is visible)! -
Top Roller Coaster Myths & Rumors!

The Screamin Eagle at SFSTL comes off the track on the hills and may completely derail if loaded with too much weight. -
You Might Be A Coaster Nerd If....
Zcev5454 replied to PCW_Nut's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
1. You draw roller coaster sketches when bored with paper in front of you. 2. You get excited when you see a coaster on a tv commercial, movie, etc. 3. You wonder how people can survive in the world from some of their stupid comments in line for rides or on park's Facebook pages. For Example, praising SFSTL for staying with current technology for adding a "new" boomerang( no joke), or thinking a lime green and orange boomerang looks like SheiKra( really???). -

^ I'm wondering how congested it will get, especially on busy holidays? I guess we'll see soon enough... -

Didn't realize how much over the walkway they actually meant! I hope the fix up that area and do something with the large concrete footers out there in the path. -

^ same experience for me. It seems it gets rougher in different places in different years though, and last year the helix was unbearable for my head. I would love to see the second part of the double down fully enclosed in a tunnel, and a topper track treatment would be amazing! -

That's the same place where SFSTL's is. Just hope they don't run it like they do there, were people are corralled into queue lines under the tower and only allowing 3-4 people up at a time. There is lots of wasted time this way, but I guess it has to be done for the flash pass to work. -
Least favorite coaster element.
Zcev5454 replied to darklingscribe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That weird transition into a corkscrew on Arrow loopers, where your body is flung to the side. Apparently they didn't think it over too much when designing them.
