Great pics, cant wait for the POV's. Please tell me you have a Big Bad Wolf POV?

HiYa!!! I think its pretty funny actually, the ride ops need to entertain themselves somehow. They did only say it once though when i was there last.

Thanks 'Olsor' for this link http://www.themeparkbrochures.net/ theres some good stuff there. I was certainly freaked out when i went back to magic mountain last year and hadnt been there since '92, they sure did go freakin crazy puttin in new coasters in the last 10 years or so.

1. M/Force, back seat 2. Xcelerator 3. Goliath SFMM, after so many rides, i still think i'll lose my arms if i hold them up in the tunnel.

Here is a picture of Magic Mountains park map from a trip i did in September 1992. The big new ride of the time was Flashback and guess what???? it wasnt operating on the day of our visit. Does anyone else have any vintage park maps from any park? I would love to see some more.

Here's a shot of Superman's ride entrance, sorry, i couldnt help but pretend to be able to fly in this photo... Having ridden both Superman and the Tower of Terror, i am positive that Dreamworlds version is a little faster, i know that they've got the same stats but superman just didnt throw me back as much.

Maverick looks awesome!!! (it doesnt take much to get me excited over a new Intamin) This is a quote off Cedar Points website... Colour Scheme: Rust-colored track with brown support columns Train colors -- Gold, Copper, Brass, Iron, Gunmetal and Silver Am i colour blind or is the track Red, not Rust Coloured?

Yeah i know, i guess it would depend on the speed the train hits this section of track.

Just got this picture from a relative who was at Cedar point yesterday.

'Superman The Escape' at WB Movie World, mmmmmmm Intamin Goodness. Superman the Escape, the best coaster in OZ

when im talking about something small and say that at least it's bigger than the disneyland castle.

Well, im now officially checking out airfares and costing this baby up to see if i can make it happen. Thank you to all the posts that have actually been informative and offering advice, it has been a big help so far.

I guess when you look at the number of people that go through the gates at Disney parks, (Magic Kingdom has 14 million+ per year, Epcot and MGM Studios have 8 million+ each per year) compared to others, (Cedar Point has only 3 million+ per year in comparison) the chances of an accident happening are much, much higher. I think it's a credit to Disney's ride manufactuers and maintenece team that this sort of thing hasnt happened more often. I love this coaster and wouldnt want them to change it in any way. My thoughts go out the boys family.

I havnt been on too many woodies but i will have to go for the second drop on GHOSTRIDER as my favorite.

Hows this, i fly in to L.A. from Perth Australia on fri 28th and am at MM on Mon 1st May. What a shame i miss the Tatsu campout only by a few days, oh well at least i will get to ride it (i wasnt sure if it would be open by this time). p.s. I want to live in America so bad that i would happily be someones slave if you will take me in.
