MiABeta

^^Which ones? Haven't been there on Tuesday in a while, I shall see soon! On it!

Heading to MiA today, would anyone like any pictures of anything, or updates on really anything in the park? I need my Shivering Timbers fixation after riding Mean Streak earlier in the season.

Giga: Millenium Hyper: Behemoth Hybrid: RMC Mean Streak (If the ride needs to be real, then Twisted Colossus) Invert: Raptor Woodie #1: Voyage Woodie #2: The Beast Launched: Maverick #1: TTD #2: Kraken #3: Zach's Zoomer at MiA (I kid of course, probably ThunderBird)

...If you read all 83 pages of this thread ...if you recreate your favorite rollercoasters in No-Limits to have a dynamic pov ...if you finished projects early to look at Screamscape and this forum in computer-based classes ...if you used all the free time given between projects in classes to look at Screamscape and the forum ...if every project done in said classes were about rollercoasters ...if you went to Cedar Point in high school with a club even if you weren't part of it (I had friends in it, it was first come, first serve anyway) ...if you have ridden a coaster looking backwards while in the back seat to look at the track and the chain (cough, cough Shivering Timbers and Wolverine Wildcat) ...don't mind riding Thunder Hawk at MiA only because it isn't the worst SLC out there (cough, cough Flight Deck) ...if you question whether a 'coaster' should really be considered a 'coaster' (Pipe Scream)

Ooops... Just read all 58 pages.

My number is only up to 40, but one fun milestones is #20 which is Behemoth at CW. #40 is... well... Pipe Scream. Oh no this can't be right, why did i ever ride this? Why did i count it as a roller coaster? Oh no!!!

I got excited when I saw new cement being poured next to dodgems and a week later saw a new blue utility building. Atleast that's what it looks like it was. It's behind the spin-the-wheel win a prize game.

Maverick or Top Thrill Dragster. Sure it's a GP magnet and a gimmick-esq ride but I'm a sucker for that 120 mph launch.

We all know what CF would have done to it if that were the case... Like I said, we can count our blessings that we still have a nice, if unspectacular, amusement park so close to us here in Michigan! Just... Need... Something... New... Even the second train would suffice if it actually worked!

I think the trains are adjusted to ride at Mantis' heartline, i don't know if Mantis would have a higher or lower heartline than a floorless coaster, but it at least seems as if Rougarou's trains sit higher than other floorless coasters. Maybe it doesn't but it feels as if they do.

Literally rode it yesterday. I have bad amusement park luck. One time we were in Orlando and one monorail at Disney broke, we went to Universal and the day we were there Rip Ride Rockit was stuck/ broken down for 2 hours, the time before last i went to cedar point was when Iron Dragon's chain broke and the guy got his leg stuck in the gate. WTF. Anyway yesterday was a good day with a dusk ride on TTD and a night ride on GateKeeper. Oh also someone vomited slightly on Millennium force. Only covered five cars.

New last ride: Night time ride on Gate Keeper last night! Exactly at 10:00.

Same. Plus Valran. Maybe Ziz. Who knows.

Shivering timbers - About a week ago.

What if both are launching dive machines. CF and B&M would have something to be proud off.

Notice that the train route is basically tunnels of foliage now, like they stopped grooming the back 9 so we can't see what lies beyond. Dippin' Dots guy tells me they're pouring footers... That made me laugh a little too much. The past few years they've added better utility paths going back there, used to be just dirt, now they're is gravel. Lets hope the Dippin' Dots guy is right. Really at this point I just want a new ride. Even, dare i say, a water slide.
