It's a shame you didn't get on that paratrooper. That's a story I'd have loved to hear. Also, if I remember correctly about the go-kart tracks, that one with zero elevation changes is one of the best as you have to drift around the turns else you'll crash into the wall or another driver. But Fun Spot Replicant ride ops have to begin and end with the dude that left me locked in the Enterprise on the back side of the ride. -

I'm all for the possibility of a ski lift transportation system, but at the same time, I'm skeptical after Lake Compounce recently removed theirs after the events at The Great Escape. -

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

^I just got an email from Valleyair that they're now accepting 2018 applications after making some changes to the site and application process. I would imagine that CP's doing something similar and will be up within the next couple days. -

Ohio State Fair accident

I was thinking the same thing. It uses a box spine. B&M is the only active company I can think of that uses that style. But it's a two-abreast vehicle. Giavanola used a similar style box track on their Six Flags Hypers, but even that looks wider than the track used in filming. At the same time, I wonder if this is also being used as a test by Universal to see how a gyrosphere coaster could work at one or more of their parks.

The Winterfest ride lineups probably wouldn't get as much hate if Six Flags Great Adventure didn't run Nitro during Holiday in the Park. It's an easy thing to compare Cedar Fair to Six Flags, and in the case of ride lineups during the winter time events in the eyes of many enthusiasts, Six Flags wins hands down. -

The Room has under 30 reviews and most of the "fresh" ones love it as a cult; so bad, it's good film.
