I think that the bigger version of the S&S free spin would be perfect for cedar point. -

^I have only been on Sheikra, but I preferred the back row to the front because of the airtime on the drops. It was awesome being pulled over in the back. -

I had no idea where to put this but on S&S-Sansei Technologies youtube page, there is a video for a launched El Loco. Anyone know more about this "prototype?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9EmaM0cUAFY

Saturday, June 1, 2002 Im back! Went to the park today in hopes HV would open. It was testing all morning but at around 12:30pm, an announcement on the park speakers said that High Voltage would open to the public for the first time ever at 3:00pm!! I was super excited. A line started building up for it immediately, and I was probably the 50th person in line. By late, the ride had a 90 minute line. High Voltage operated from 3:15 until 8:15 where it closed due to tech diff. Ended up getting 6 rides on it before marathoning The Great American Fun Racer (Racing!) High Voltage is CRAZY! Crazy acceleration! Loved it. Wow. It does not beat UNLEASHED or SIMBA but a great third place ride. Here are some photos. INSANE! Was down most of the day though it did reopen at around 4:00pm. Good sign that it did open. HUGE! Testing with employees gave me hope! cool open-air station. Big Thunder was stuck on chainlift. I hear passengers were taken off. Heard it got stuck around 4:00 and I walked by at 4:30 still stuck. By night it was no longer stuck though it did not reopen. Rotor was also closed all day. This rides future seems dull.
