Still looks like a giant flop to me. I think IB is over hyping this one, they'll be disappointed when everyone hates it. -

That's because it only runs 2 trains. Behemoth needs a MCBR to run 3 trains. -

Well, thank you for enlightening me with that unnecessarily sarcastic and slightly insulting response. I guess I just don't care for the way that MCBR looks. It seems like it will be slow to start again, whereas something like Nitro's that goes directly into a drop is more exciting in my opinion. http://www.rcdb.com/ig1106.htm?picture=10 The way you said it led me to believe that you thought the ride had to have that hill to keep going. I agree that a giant drop may be more fun, but B&M has also made some pretty awesome helices. Sorry to sound rude. -
I think primers are a red hue actually... Anyways, movin off the CF hate; does anyone have any recent construction photos? Is the clearing still just a clearing, or has foundation laying started? Check out the pictures on the ride's site. It clearly says that the gray stuff is primer, and they have some nice pictures of footers and foundation work being done. LINK

Uh, it kinda has to have that dip to pass an emergency stop, which is the entire point of a MCBR. Ever seen a MCBR that the track goes up afterwards? I don't think so. -
Photo TR: Cedar Point and more!!!
CP_RULES replied to SFOGdude25's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This TR sucks, CP can't possibly be a CF park AND have trees! Great to see it's possible to have a TR of a park without cliche and insignificant gripes. Great TR! -

You mean this?: Yea I'd say that's pretty impressive. As far as the EK vs Boss thing goes, Ive thought about it some, and I just don't know if EK can beat it. I seem to be one of the few people who always catches good rides on Boss. My rides are always filled with great laterals, loads of airtime, and smoothness. It will be a tough act to beat, I mean c'mon, even Evel Knievel had to have had a Boss! -

Wow, talk about stadium seating! Looks like the back seat can provide the airtime of the back, and the views from the front! -

You lose. -
I always pictured that as the area the new GCI woody would go, is that a good enough "doing" of the area? Wow, I just literally laughed out loud, is that bad? Ah well. Nice one Wes.

7/10 and I know NOTHING about Disney. I guess I'm just good at ruling out and guessing. -
-Mr. Freeze has already been almost completely repainted as of last season, "finish it" would be a better suggestion. -Agreed on the tree problem, though I never really noticed until you just said something. -The parking lot situation is pretty bad. It was HORRIBLE last time I went, the lot looked like a giant pile of garbage, and they already have tons of trash cans there! -Batman's queue HAS air conditioning, it just rarely works. "Fix it" would be a nice suggestion here. Worlds of Fun -Please turn off the trims on Mamba, the MCBR can't possibly need to be on that hard. -Revamp the back section of the park by the coasters diner, adding some flats, more restaurants, and some more theming. It changes from Africa into a random path with nothing on it. -Finish Timber Wolf re-track and get new trains for it. Heck, why not spend a couple mill. and COMPLETELY rehab the ride? (see Thunder Road). -Repaint Boomerang and theme station. All that faded clashing neon needs to go. They could actually make Boomerang cool if it was themed a bit more. -More fountains and other nice touches. The park is in the city of fountains, why not add a few more? -Revamp "Camp Snoopy" or whatever it is now, add a few flats up there and get some stuff painted! -Re-paint all flat rides. If WOF did this stuff this off season (they could, they arent adding anything), the park would look WAY better and I might decide to actually go!

^What seat have you been riding Boss in? The front seat was giving me very smooth, airtime-filled rides last season. Good to see EK is coming along nicely, can't wait to see it finished! -

"Fanboyism"??? No. More like being normal. Anyone who makes fun of CF has to make fun of SF just as much. Sure CF's ride names aren't the most original, but its nothing to gripe about, and as I showed, SF is a tad bit worse... and by a tad I mean A TON. -Justin "You're just looking for a way to put me down because you know I'm right" Seabaugh PS- If I was a CF fanboy then I wouldn't have a SFStL season pass, I'd have one to WOF instead. I don't even plan on going to WOF next season. -

I can't believe you guys are getting all hyped up about the name! Making fun of Cedar Fair is pretty much the stupidest thing I've ever heard! You guys must have forgotten about the train wreck of naming we have at Six Flags: -Fourteen coasters named by Six Flags using "Batman" -Twelve coasters named by Six Flags using "Superman" -Seven Six Flags coasters using "Boomerang" -Six coasters named by Six Flags using "Viper" -Six coasters named by Six Flags using "Road Runner Express" -Five Six Flags coasters using "Goliath" -Five coasters named by Six Flags using "Canyon Blaster" -Five coasters named by Six Flags using "Mind Eraser" -Four Six Flags coasters using "Tony Hawk" plus one water slide -Four coasters named by Six Flags using "Shockwave" -Three Six Flags coasters using "Medusa" -Three Six Flags coasters using "Dark Knight" -Three Six Flags coasters using "Rolling Thunder" -Three coasters named by Six Flags using "Déjà Vu" -Three Six Flags coasters using "Ninja" -Three coasters named by Six Flags using "Cyclone" -Three Six Flags coasters using "Flashback" -Two Six Flags coasters using "Roar" -Two Six Flags coasters using "Great American Scream Machine" -Two Six Flags coasters using "Roller Skater" -Two Six Flags coasters using "Mr. Freeze" -Two Six Flags coasters using "Vertical Velocity" -Two Six Flags coasters using "Vampire" And you cant forget about the ever so unique: -"Batwing" -"Wild One" -"Cobra" -"Demon" -"X" -"X2" -"T2" -"Scream!" -"Thunderbolt" -"Mine Train" Yea, I'm pretty sure SFI's naming squad is WAY worse than CFE's. Grow up... Slow news day.
