whats up Paramount?
Bk1870 replied to stricklandCC's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yeah, Carowinds seemed to "fix" the ride. It's pretty reliable. Most of the time they are running two trains, but at first they only ran one train (even on busy days). It's a popular ride. -
TR: Belmont Park - 6/23/06
Bk1870 replied to coasterville's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I went to Belmont Park a few years ago...it's a funny little park. This wooden roller coaster and a few rides and shops..and thats it. The ride is so-so. It's a classic so you can't really complain, but fun none the less. I also was surprised to venture off thinking that was it of the park to fine "Krazy Kars!" Those were fun! -
Heritage USA Updates (9-9-06)
Bk1870 replied to Bk1870's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
They took the water park down last year, and are renovating Main Street Shoppes, the Castle (sometime) and HOPEFULLY the Grand Tower. They had it checked out and engineers said it was structurally stable...but now they aren't. I don't know what they know...but yeah. It wouldn't be the same if that was gone. They also have already renovated the Barn and Upper Room (which is now open). -
/\ Sad to hear that! Everytime I go I say I will eat there, but never do. :-/

S&S Sansei Discussion Thread
Bk1870 replied to Coaster Joe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
At least they opened it up...all those rides will now be put into better use! And that place will probably have S&S' newest rides before anyone else does...like we've already seen. -
So yeah...here are pictures of the on-going renovation at Heritage USA (or Regent Park) in Fort Mill, SC. Main Street Shoppes- New Clubhouse Bridge Construction Just think....Jim & Tammye used to travel over these tracks everyday!

Thunder Eagle will not be rebuilt!
Bk1870 replied to Absimilliard's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The "smooth" aspect sounds neat, but after looking at picures...it does look rather "meh." But still sad to see it be lost after a short life! But seriosly, do people expect for a new "ghetto" park on the strip to succeed like that? Especially with a roller coaster. It was kinda hidden too. Not really on the road. I mean, all the go-kart places with bungee jumps and now screamin' swings are good with mini-golf and everything else...but a full blown coaster? Especially with Dollywood there. -

I was just in Pigeon Forge and was remembering this coaster. I saw it one late and dark night a few years ago before they tore it down in Pigeon Forge and went to go and ride it...but soon figured out it was closed. What else was at the "defunct park" where this was located? And has anbody rode it? Was it any good? -
BEST La Ronde Photo TR EVER!
Bk1870 replied to Canobie Fan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
WOW! Drive alllll that way to get a few pictures. Crazy! And I thought you "cancelled" this trip!! -
I've always wondered about this park. It's showing its age...but they are kind of stuck with it being INSIDE.

2006 Golden Ticket Awards
Bk1870 replied to coasterdave's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm glad Thunderhead won again...give someone else a chance before the Voyage keeps the top woodie till who knows when! -
Yeah! My first Disk-O and I had to ride by myself. :-/ It was fun though. I didn't think Timber Tower was that great. It was fun...but...yeah. Luckily I didn't get SOAKED like others did.

I LOVE the Hot Chick. I don't remember how well it did in the theaters when it came out but its one of those that people like and forget about. Kinda a fad movie I guess. But I still LOVE it and watch it about once a month to get my fix.
-
I would say it would of done better if it was PG-13. I know A LOT of people who weren't 18 and wanted to see this movie.
-
Dang that is time consuming! I'm still looking for the making stuff in a minute program. I have the Adobe Photoshop but never can get myself to look through it more than five minutes. Very hard stuff. Why oh why can't there be an easier program out there?!

/\ LoL Cool pictures! I think I've seen a few of these before somewherez. It's so weird to see NO foliage. haha. Oh, and all the rides that are gone now! -
I'd like to see another one of these. Tennessee Tornado r0cks and is very smooth. I'd like to see where they can go with it.
-
