I might do that. Thanks for the suggestion, friendly stranger! -

I think my issue with the layout (and this is coming from someone who's only seen a video) isn't so much that is has a slower finale, slow finales can be fine. The problem I see is that the final little overbank seems extremely out of place in such a low-speed setting. It's obvious they thought this thing was going to be taking that final section at a much higher speed. -

Still would love to go ride it, but wow that has to be the worst ending to a great coaster that I've ever seen. -
Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said

The comments from the GP on Facebook about that recent article about the fairground coaster's restraint coming loose on some kid make me want to kill myself. -
Floater or Ejector Air, your preference?
Mater replied to Coaster Curt's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm not a scientist, but I'm assuming the difference is that one makes you float in your seat and one ejects you upwards. -
So when people were mentioning bruised legs, I really thought that was just hyperbole. Then I went on Twisted Colossus fifteen times. I'm so bruised up I don't know if I can do day two of the preview. Also, did anybody ride in the back of the blue car just before they took it off? About an hour or so into the day I started feeling a really weird vibration happening in the back half of the train, was wondering if I was crazy or if anyone else noticed. Highlights of TC in no order: - First drops in the back. - Dueling on the green side (I personally think the best moment is watching the blue train spiral around you right before the double-up.) - The lift hills when dueling. - Any part where the trains are racing side by side. - The twist out of the green stall. - Making eye contact with someone in the high five or top gun.
