Montu is my favorite, with raptor in a close second. -
Best Drop Ride!!!
Nwstone replied to coaster_shorty's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That would be so awesome if you could just set that up in your backyard and ride it all day -
I mean 90% of the fairgrounds is just a parking lot. They could list turn the stadium area into a parking lot, and allow KK to build on the parking lot close to them. That way they could expand and keep the same insane amount of parking they already have. Well, they do use a lot of that parking space up when it comes to the State Fair coming into town. I've had friends with stories of having to park far away or in grass just to go to it. I get what you mean though, as there is still some room for possible expansion. There are some plots of unused land behind T-Cubed and Deep Water Dive. I think the biggest disadvantage of being there would be the fact that it's directly under the flight path to one of the airport's runway, so the height limit in that area would be super-low. I'm sure you'd see the rides portion of the park expand in the original direction/plan if the park stays successful; expanding behind the 5D Cinema into the area the current KSF Thrillway/animal trailors lots. There is more than enough undevveloped property at the fairgrounds to make up for the lost spaces (mentioned in the hotel RFP during the time KK was open and doing good) and with Cardinal Stadium coming down there is even more space to work with. I'd imagine with the Chang removal/waterpark expansion, we will probably see HB fill up the rest of land closest to the airport. Don't know if I'm pulling this out of thin air or not but I think I remember one of the SF RMC announcements mentioning IH treatments being exclusive to SF parks...Could that be a way around an exclusivity contract? Personally I think if RMC redid TT it would keep it's wooden track, kinda like a reversed IH Outlaw Run; whatever happens I hope it's not just retracking the coaster. I think TT will definitely be combined into one coaster, Ed Hart said once that he had a plan to combine twisted twins into the longest wooden coaster.This rules out Iron Horse for me. I think that either RMC will renovate it, or gravity group will renovate it and create a (hopefully better) hades 360 like ride.

Worst Coaster Ever?
Nwstone replied to Mind Eraser's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Oh my god yes, beech bends dragon is terrible, it should be classified as a thrill ride purely on its roughness. -

Weird Roller Coaster Dreams
Nwstone replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Ok I had this dream a few nights ago where for some reason I chose either to ride iron rattler or millennium force.Which is weird because I've ridden Millie and thought it was just alright and would prefer to ride Irat in real life.Another thing that was weird was that both coasters were just by themselves at random locations in a desert. So I chose Millie and somehow teleported to the ride which was situated in a random place. It also looked to be only close to 100 feet tall, so I was basically riding Millennium Megalite. I rode it and it had some good airtime which I actually felt in the dream. The weirdest part was that at the end of the ride it went into an underground tunnel made out of concrete and inside there was a ton of graffiti spray painted on the walls. Then, the ride went into a large drop underground so I had to be like 100 feet underground but it somehow immediately went back to the station. So the station was somehow underground now. -

You expect people to crap their pants just because you are running a coaster backwards. -
Weird Roller Coaster Dreams
Nwstone replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I once had this dream where I went to a park that had an intamin gyro drop exactly like Drop Zone at KI, and there was a woodie that looked similar to thunder run and hurler, also there was a blue arrow corkscrew in the back of the park. -

Has anyone been keeping up with the construction cam today? Today begins that phase in construction where we would absolutely know what they were building. -

Ok sorry to double post but I'm going to give my opinion. I was surprised in a good way seeing that this was a wingrider over a flyer. Also, the colors and station are beautiful and I love all of the farm theming around the ride. As for the ride itself, it looks awesome, it is short but sweet and I love the near miss through the house and how it crosses the voyage, and that Immelmann !!! -
