CP Maverick Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Reports of more lift work being completed. Fast approaching the original height. Not much else visible without venturing to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I love pie Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 My uncle's neighbor told me that Magnum's back cars are going to be fitted with cargo shorts. The dippin dots guy told me that cargo shorts are going to be used to prevent magnum from sinking any further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry M Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 I know how to get enthusiasts ranting again! So...What does everyone feel about that rattle on Gate Keeper and Valravn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleDown Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 What are you supposed to do? Some B&M's have a rattle. It doesn't take away from the mediocre ride experiences though, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT325 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 What are you supposed to do? Some B&M's have a rattle. I always figured if they had more ball & socket joints at the track/structure connection, they would be much smoother. Hinges of any kind would be nice. Look how silky smooth most Schwarzkopfs are. And Giavanola. Even super-sturdy Intamin rides (Millennium Force and Maverick come to mind) have a distinctive *grind* to them. It doesn't take away from the mediocre ride experiences though, that's for sure. Bhahahaha!!! Thank you for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABW Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 ^I remember Maverick being silky smooth so I don't know what you're talking about. I'll give it to you the Millennium Force can rattle in some places, but it's still incredible and smooth. Interesting observations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 No nig deal, we can just Von Roll with it. Woah. That was a close one. That is NOT what I meant to write! Thanks for pointing that out. Corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdahoKat Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 My uncle's neighbor told me that Magnum's back cars are going to be fitted with cargo shorts. Is you uncle's neighbor related to the Dipping Dots guy? Because we all know Dipping Dots is where the most accurate info is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyRCT3 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 If we were really going to do that, it would have to be SFGAm vs CP. I mean, does Magic Mountain have any non-coaster rides left? CP wins operations, and rides are debatable. We all know that, right? Lex Luthor & Jet stream are the only ones that come to mind. Everything else is your run of the mill carnival flat. I've heard Nagashima Spa Land is like the CP of Japan, so maybe that's another better comparison than SFMM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blakelemay23 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Webcam is currently turned back towards Mean Streak, got some crane action going on. That crane is getting it done! Two pieces of track gone within a 5 minute period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cj1990 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Well it's moved over to MF now but they did zoom in close up and I managed to get a couple screen shots. I'm only sharing what was shown on Cedar Point's public webcam so this shouldn't be an issue. I just grabbed a screen shot each time the cam went to this view. Mean Streak lift hill close up Similar to the first but cam went over twice and screen shot both times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakelemay23 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) Someone's having fun pointing the third web-cam at a giant floating crane as it sails past. Yup! Kept zooming in and out of the big boat and back towards the lift. *Deleted picture because it was low quality and someone beat me to it * Edited November 28, 2016 by blakelemay23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
