Worst Coaster Ever?
XSupremacy replied to Mind Eraser's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
CGA's has absolutely no airtime, is slow as hell, and has the worst restraint system ever created -

Kings Dominion, Cedar Point and Valleyfair come to mind as being on time. I guess you're right (though two of those haven't opened yet). Cedar Fair usually sets the standard when it comes to being on time with their new stuff, but Dorney, Worlds of Fun, CGA, Carowinds, and (kinda) Knott's were late this year. If you thought Cedar Fair was late, you wouldn't want to know what Six Flags' new rides look like right now (Hint: None of them are open). Anything before Memorial Day is nowhere near being late. Patriot opened a week after the park opened, and Knott's never closes so there is no "late" -
Given that the area is kinda sorta close to Whitewater Falls, what I'm predicting is that they'll remove WWF in the future and use that space plus the Invertigarden for a water coaster. I could be wrong, but that's just my guess. Looking further into it, I can definitely see now how a coaster going in to the spots of Invertigo and WWF wouldn't be that crazy. It looks completely plausible.

Where Are You Going in 2017?
XSupremacy replied to ytterbiumanalyst's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Going to be at CGA and SFDK regularly, will probably also mix in trips to SCBB and Gilroy Gardens. Heading to the Santa Monica Pier and Universal Studios Hollywood in about a week, do not know any more past that. Might also put in a trip to somewhere in the midwest or southeast(huge Falcons fan, really want to see Mercedes Benz Stadium) and a trip to KBF. -

The car in front of Mel's Diner shot was the best. Always have loved American Graffiti -

Nice pictures, there also is an open air penguin exhibit at SFDK -
The one of Vortex was shot with a full train (as you can hear), the one of Patriot was shot (I believe) by the park with an empty train before media day (note the load platform at the end still under construction and with absolutely nobody in sight). You hit the nail on the head. When the train is full of riders, I highly doubt there is any noticeable difference in speed / duration. Exactly. At season pass preview night on Friday it was actually running a little faster than Vortex with a full train.

Carowinds Discussion Thread

If you want a "trick" for stand up coasters, slightly bend your knees until they lock the seats in place, and then fully lengthen your legs. It gives you a gap between the base and your privates
