Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
DoinItForTheFame replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was surprised to see nobody discussing that tweet today. It's quite exciting. But where in the world would they have room for ANOTHER coaster? Iron mean Streak? -
Since we are on the topic... Having been on El Toro and Outlaw Run both many times each... I still prefer Outlaw Run. YES... El Toro is good, its really good! And it has a longer ride time... But something about the relentlessness of Outlaw Run gets me every time! However, they are both super amazing coasters, and both very extreme, and re-rideable!

Favorite Shuttle Coaster
DoinItForTheFame replied to Woodie Warrior's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's a toss up between Mr. Freeze Reverse Blast, and Wicked Twister! Both such great rides! -
Okay. Just an observation. But does the gondola on the right (if you're looking at the tower from the front" always seem to drop later than the others? In all the videos (and photos) I've seen it's always falling later than the others. Any one else notice this? (Not that it matters at all that it drops a split second after the others.) Just something I noticed. And was curious about. With that being said: The ride still looks amazing. And I can NOT wait to ride it!

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

Having ridden both types many of times, I personally prefer the cable style. The elastic rope style is BEYOND rough. You get thrown around every where, and it is a very uncomfortable experience. I also feel that the cable style's launch seems more intense. But that's just my opinion. -
High Roller - use to be at the top of the Stratosphere.

CARS! The Car Super Thread
DoinItForTheFame replied to Jordan Shankman's topic in Random, Random, Random
Speaking of fast cars... I must say... I HATE the way the Bugatti Veyron looks. It may be the fastest car in the world .... But it is beyond ugly. Why can't it be as beautiful as the Lamborghini Aventador?!? -

Law Of Heights?
DoinItForTheFame replied to DoinItForTheFame's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ That's the one. Have you ever experience this while on a roller coaster and/or thrill ride? -
Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

So I've been looking over the pictures from the flooding. I can't help but notice the US's first AQUATRAX!!!! (Sorry I had too) Hopefully there was no serious damage. Aquatrax!!!! -
Hey everyone, I have a quick questions for you all. (I've done a google search, and a search here on the forums and I got nothing. So I apologize if this has already been discussed.) Many years ago while watching a travel channel theme park show I remember someone saying "...and then _______ law kicks in and your body perceives the height to be twice what it actually is...." Recently I've been trying to find this "law" which I am assuming is like a Newton law or something, and I have found nothing. I was hoping someone here has heard of this before, and knows what it is called. While on topic. Have you ever been on a roller coaster and you perceive it to be twice as tall as it actually is. IE: you're on a 100ft coaster but it seems like you are 200ft up? I always have this altered perception on drop towers. Anyone else have it as well?

Okay... Not going to lie... I was super excited for this ride. But the pov just looks disappointing. We need to wait for ride reviews to get a real idea of how it rides. But thus far it looks super disappointing compared to the "test slide" we first saw. I would rather have had the 80ft tall test version the way it was compared to this. But that's just my opinion.

Your first Arrow Dynamics coaster
DoinItForTheFame replied to stashua123's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Runaway Mine Train at SFOT. I was 5 at the time... and I remember biting my tongue in the tunnel after the "main drop" and think that it was the most crazy ride ever. My how times have changed. -
Photo TR: Frontier City
DoinItForTheFame replied to Shavethewhales's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Great TR. I haven't been to this park in at least 4 years, and it seems like a lot has changed since then. It's sad to see some of the good rides gone... IE: Eruption. Glad I got to ride it while it was still there. However, I am glad to see that the team is taking GIANT leaps in making a come back for this park. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this park. My favorite part of this TR: Ouch... But at the same time... LOVE IT!
