singemfrc Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 I chuckled just a little at the email CGA just sent out titled "Enjoy Summer, scream more!"
peetnik Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 When I saw that e-mail I laughed to myself and thought how ironic.
gisco Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Would be funny if all the CGA fanboys screaming in protest just closes the coaster longer because the noise levels are above the limit. Â Â I was thinking that too. They will be out there taking sound measurements when the fanboys are screaming and have to shut the ride.!
#1rollercoasterfan Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Or I know put a huge ugly pink sound proof dome over Great America like Circus Circus Adventure Dome. Cedar Fair needs to become real creative here so that Prudenal will zip their lips once in for all. Cedar Fair needs to consider our ideas.
Angry_Gumball Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 And that would be very costly to do and very unlikely. Â Hopefully the new "prudential tunnel" (or the STFU tunnel) will resolve the slightly above the limit issue.
Rollercoaster Rider Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Everyone who visits CGAm, Scream on Grizzly really loud.
Blue Fire Guy Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Yeah, as much as "Box: The Ride" would be amazingly unique, original, and funny as hell, it's pretty much not going to happen. Anyways, I'm excited to take another tunnel! Â Everyone who visits CGAm, Scream on Grizzly really loud. Â This just made my day!

rjvader Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Space Gold Striker? This calls for some half-assed photo editing!
Flagg O'Dim Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Just got this email from Roger Ross!  Great news regarding Gold Striker just arrived! All remediation work to comply with noise issues has been completed and approved by the proper authorities. The additional 70 ft. tunnel (which is themed similar to the initial descent tunnel which has been so well received by riders) will allow Gold Striker to run free the rest of the season. Gold Striker will open back up to guests in about 10 minutes! The line quickly reached 100 people outside the queue the moment guests saw cars running on the tracks.
JJnCFL Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Sweet! Kudos to CGA for their fast response just in time for the busy 4th of July Weekend. Can't wait to ride the new Goldy!
#1rollercoasterfan Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Yey so awesome & finally there will be no more problems with Gold Striker. Whoo hoo. Can't wait to go next week since I canceled my visit this week after finding out on here Gold Striker would be closed. Oh well next week will be here soon enough.
singemfrc Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Good news. I might make the trek down to the park on Monday when its a little cooler and less busy.
Swornenemy Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 They took care of it quick. Glad everything has been resolved. Need to get down there again soon.

Angry_Gumball Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 BYODT, Bring Your Own Duct Tape, just in case! Â Well, they did give out those free towels opening day
Blue Fire Guy Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) And here's proof from the permit page: No requirement at this time for new sound wall on roller coaster http://smartpermit.santaclaraca.gov/tm_bin/tmw_cmd.pl?tmw_cmd=StatusViewCase&shl_caseno=BLD2012-28623 Edited July 4, 2013 by Blue Fire Guy
