I was at CP with a couple friends yesterday. It was my first time back after 10 years, and I have to say it was nice being tall enough for all the rides. Good weather and short lines made for a great time! Dragster had a few rollbacks late in the day. We were next in line for the back train when one of them happened. They temp closed for maintenance and cleared the trains. The guy in front of us, who was in the train before they cleared, left. There were some spots open in the front train, but we stayed in back. We got in the train when they opened, and the front train rolled back...AGAIN. We could've been on that train! But alas, we'll have to get a rollback another time. Nevertheless, they ran it successfully for a little before the park closed and we got to ride twice in a row, the second essentially being a walk-on (we got to walk-on Dragster!! ). Fun day.

Hey everyone, my name's David. I was born, raised, and live in Cincinnati, Ohio, right in King's Island's neighborhood. Even though I've made regular visits to KI my whole life, I'm just starting to become a roller coaster enthusiast as my geeky friends are introducing me to the community. My favorite coaster is Dragster, with Diamondback and Maverick tied for second (though KI's Vortex will always have a special place in my heart). In the not-too-distant future, I hope to hit up King's Dominion and Carrowinds. Also, I have at least 31 credits, but I need to double check as I may be forgetting a few. Outside of coasters, I'm a huge astronomy nut, I'm currently studying astrophysics in Cincinnati, and I like to play video games. I'm excited to be a part of the forums, meet all you people, and explore this hobby!
