Cyber.Fiber Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Aww... I will not be abel to attend, I will be in florida for 3 weeks. Not really a reason to complain, because I will be going to Busch Gardens, Islands and Disney, and seeing how Canada's Wonderland is my home park, I have all the credits.
PCW_Nut Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Ya should be a great day...civic holiday + ert + lunch = much better day then being at work.... Might i suggest trying to get a tour of Wonder Mountain, as in, the inside of it? Thunder Run would be quite neat to see... Could you add a guest with mine as well...So me + guest...thanks
larrygator Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Hey Robb - I'm interested. Paul - I'm crashing at your place!
Carnage Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 ^ I'll pencil you in for the futon. Breakfast is served at 9.* * - at McDonalds.
Carnage Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 ^ Get the breakfast from McDoalds, throw coffee in garbage, get coffee from Tim Hortons. Done.
thecoasterkid Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 ^ Have you heard those new commercials on the radio? "Name the first thing that pops into your mind when I say...Coffee." "McDonalds!" I can guarantee you there isn't a single Canadian that thinks that way. If you say coffee, we'll all say Tim Hortons. There is no substitute. Back on topic...This should be a blast! Really looking forward to all the upcoming information as it becomes available.
rollocoast Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Now this sounds bad ass. Put me down as confirmed. I wonder how much 93octane gas costs in Canada?
thecoasterkid Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 93 Octane can be hard to find, but it will run you about 15 cents more per litre than regular gasoline here. My car requires 91 Octane, which is at about a 12 cent premium. This summer I expect to be filling up anywhere from $1.15-$1.30 per litre. An empty to full fill up in Canada costs me $60-$65 on average, fill ups in the States are about $40-$45 for the same car getting the same amount of fuel. Needless to say fuel is more expensive up here than in the US, and it's even more expensive in Europe.
bmorel Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Just to let you know that I would be interested in this event. Benoit
cwcoasterboy Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Hey all... definetely interested in this one! Please mark down two spots for me, and keep me in the loop. Will watch for updates. Thanks for putting this together!
denning Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 The good news is that wonderland is not too far from the US border, only an 1.5 with bad traffic. So you can easily fill up in Buffalo before crossing over and avoid the evil Canadian gas prices.

I just gotta make sure I don't go WOT too much (4mpg average when I'm getting on it). I'm most definitely in for this trip. Maybe I can even convince Nuss to come up from Florida!
raptor6 Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 I definitely want to go, but I am not sure that i can get the time off work I probably need at least one, maybe two, days depending went I leave the park. At least I have a Cedar Fair season pass to cut some of the costs if I do attend. Hey Robb, do you have any idea what the latest date is when we can tell you the answer?
dandaman Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 ^ Get the breakfast from McDonalds, throw coffee in garbage, get coffee from Tim Hortons. Done. Heh. For the record, gas prices hit $1.10/litre this morning. Oy.
PCW_Nut Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Ya, and the fact that it's planning on hitting 1.30 or 1.40 by summer is insane...see, this is why i don't drive...lol...plus living in Toronto, no real need to... I can't wait for this event...Behemoth has started its pull through testing now.
carolinacaniac Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Since I wasn't able to do the Ravine Flyer/Behemoth trip, Melissa and I decided to go to her Mom's up in the Buffalo area around that same time. I would love to attend, so I would like to be added to the list.
chemical_echo Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I'd be interested in this. Having used to work at the park it will be cool to see all the backstage stuff again.
BrownStreak Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I would definately like to participate if for no other reason that to see all of you in person- I would pay extra if diabetic Dan was going to be there.
Fry Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 ^ Get the breakfast from McDonalds, throw coffee in garbage, get coffee from Tim Hortons. Done. Heh. For the record, gas prices hit $1.10/litre this morning. Oy. Lol, we pay the same, it's just in pounds... And I'll be at this event, woo!
PCW_Nut Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 They've begun testing the ride now...there are two videos now on youtube...am i able to post the links here or not?
Carnage Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 ^ Those videos have already been posted in the Behemoth thread.
PCW_Nut Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Just curious if there was any sort of update on this event such as pricing or when we need to order by...very excited for this event. - Josh
kris182_2000 Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 You guys are planning the best day for this, its my 1st wedding anniversary. I would love to join you guys with my husband, as we spent our honeymoon(sort of), there last year. I live close to the park, but am not sure what you guys need me to do.
