MARK Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 All they really need to do now is paint that tunnel! It kind of sticks out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemmy Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I haven't seen the tunnel in person but from the pics it looks nice if they can plant some grass and tress now that the ride is ready to open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 ^^ I think it looks just fine the way it is. It's the same color as the supports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric_Smith Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 It is not a clear shot but I really am happy that they brought this cam back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haux Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 The CP blog said the first 3,000 riders on Memorial Day weekend will get T-shirts, and the first 500 Joe Cool riders on Memorial Day will get a free pullover fleece. All right. The decision to get some rides on Raptor first has been trumped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom25 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Cedar Point never ceases to amaze me with their customer service skills. Given Maverick's delay in opening is only 2 weeks, they certainly did not have to provide such a lucrative give-away. This is why CP is my favorite vacation destination.

Wes Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 They are probably just trying to give away all the shirts that have the incorrect inversion statistic on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haux Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 ^Haha. Fine by me. I've got an MF shirt that says 92 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatorchomp83 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 That's SO weak. Missed it by 5 days...No idea when I'll be back to CP, either. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterviper Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 All they really need to do now is paint that tunnel! It kind of sticks out. I think they should of added rock formation around the tunnel so it looks like you shooting out of a side of a hill of rock. Then have that one part where it goes back over the tunnel be a small quick tunnel through the rock formation aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric_Smith Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Don't know if anyone noticed(or cares) but the animated Maverick is now at the top of the website with the rest of the rides at CP.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WickedCoaster Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Wait, so I know I may be dull, but so is Maverick opening this/next weekend then?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 It opens in about 18 hours or so to the public, depending on when the Red Cross ceremonies finish, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dandaman Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Good point. EDIT: Obviously the river of creativity has suddenly run dry for this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matteocrepaldi Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 My friends officially missed this ride by only 10 days!! I can't wait for an official review of it! I still can't believe CP had replace the pieces of track and got everything ready for opening in just two weeks. Great job Cedar Point!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Funny you should post... I saw at least a few stickers saying "Ride Tested by TheParks.it" on various ride supports last weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkchan Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I'm wondering when are they going to have a POV for the ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemmy Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I would guess yes, because a few days ago they showed a camera mount on the train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazydaveh Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I was there a week ago... I feel like I really missed out. Looks like I'll have to leave Florida again and head up north this summer! The only bad thing about that... Flying into Cleveland... That place really SUCKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DATman Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 ^Boo. Cleveland rocks, so long as you have family there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 I'm wondering when are they going to have a POV for the ride. I would assume Sunday at the earliest. Unless they do some live video thing like BGE did with Griffon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haux Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Funny you should post... I saw at least a few stickers saying "Ride Tested by TheParks.it" on various ride supports last weekend. I noticed those too. What a bunch of idiots. I'm psyched about riding! Tomorrow! On one of Raptor's air gates. In line for Dragster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvcoasterguy Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 ^ Yeah, defacing park stuff with ugly stickers is definitely a good way to protray enthusiasts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
