singemfrc Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 ^ Yeah, they're all similar but I don't think any of them are identical, they look like they all start with the same basic layout and are slightly customized to the buyer's needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azza29 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Hopefully they'll get the eight-seater trains rather than the four-seaters. Those outside seats are sensational! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double0Kevin Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Incase you guys missed this. Should be a crazy weekend at the Dome. I mean, $12.95 for a all-day ride pass? That's crazy cheap. Cupcakes, confetti and clowns will abound as The Adventuredome at Circus Circus prepares to turn 20 years young on August 23. To mark the milestone, one of America’s largest indoor theme parks will host a month-long celebration that will include special pricing, commemorative gifts and a birthday party in true circus style. Beginning July 29 guests are invited to submit their favorite park photo memory to The Adventuredome’s Facebook page for a chance to win a staycation prize package including: -Two-night stay in a newly remodeled Casino Tower guest room -$50 dining credit for the Garden Grill or Blue Iguana -Family four-pack to The Adventuredome Thursday, August 22 -Throwback Thursday with 1993 opening day prices for all-day ride passes; $12.95 (Premium: 48 inches or taller) and $8.95 (Junior: 33-48 inches tall) for savings of $15 and $8 respectively -Free commemorative button with the purchase of an all-day ride pass -Free T-shirt and birthday hat to the first 50 guests purchasing an all-day ride pass -Join the entertaining Circus Circus clowns at 11 a.m. to sing “Happy Birthday” around a special cupcake tower and salute the confetti cannon as it fires off in celebration -Guests are invited to enjoy sweet cupcake treats while supplies last -Enjoy $20 meal deals at the Main Snack Bar where guests can choose one of the following: ---One 16-inch cheese pizza and two medium soft drinks ---Two cheeseburgers with one large order of fries and two large soft drinks Friday, August 23 Sunday, August 25 -Premium (48 inches or taller) all-day ride passes for only $20; Junior (33-48 inches tall) all-day ride passes stay the same at $16.95 -Free commemorative button with the purchase of an all-day ride pass -$20 meal deals at the Main Snack Bar The five-acre, family favorite opened in 1993 with four major attractions and has grown to 25 rides and attractions 20 years later. The Adventuredome is a hit with guests of all ages, especially during summer months when the park maintains a constant temperature of 72 degrees. “I’ve had the privilege of watching thousands of families enjoy this thrilling theme park for the past 20 years, and I can’t wait to see what the next 20 has in store for us,” said Tom Nolan, vice president of attractions operations at Circus Circus. Along with celebrating the past, The Adventuredome is looking ahead to the future with the addition of the El Loco roller coaster. This gravity-defying attraction will take coaster enthusiasts on the ride of their lives with negative G drops and heart-pumping twists and turns. El Loco will become part of The Adventuredome family this December. www.vegasnews.com/100562/celebrate-20-years-of-family-fun-at-the-adventuredome-at-circus-circus-las-vegas-august-22-25.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arby Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I'm looking forward to my trip there the end of the year. I hope the Adventuredome is not too busy since it looks like we'll be there right around New Year's Eve. I do need to get our schedule finalized. Fortunately the Circus Circus campground still has a lot of sites available so that sounds promising. I would think the majority of people in Vegas for New Year's Eve wouldn't be there for the coasters and amusement park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccfan007 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 From Screamscape.com The latest buzz oozing out of the Frightdome is that it will have a special 6th maze this year that will be a little different than the rest. It is called Hotel Argento and will not be included with general admission, but instead will be exclusive to guests who purchase the FastPass style ticket option letting them skip the lines at the other mazes. I’m told that thos who opt to experience Hotel Argento will have to do so... ALONE. No guide, no friends... just you, all by yourself... alone in the dark. I’m told that previously Frightdome has always been limited to having only 5 haunts each year due to space issues, but Hotel Argento will be built in an all new secret location. Sounds interesting! Anyone thinking the haunt could be going through the layout of the old water ride maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenbowl Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I saw this on the Adventuredome website and noticed it wasn't posted. Renderings of the car/train! They look great, and only lapbars!!! No OTSRs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XYZ Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Thank goodness that it has lap bars. Hopefully, I'll get the credit in a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jray21 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 If those are what the cars will be that will be great! It could really make those type of rides a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetman82 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Beautiful, beautiful lap bars! Maybe now S&S can start building more of these puppies in more parks, and compete with Gerstlauer? Also was the ride originally planned to have an onboard sound system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
australianalex Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 If the onboard sound system is anything like Green Lantern's expect a lot of quiet rides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Stratosphere Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hi everyone! Here with a quick update at the Adventuredome! Grand Slam Canyon aka The Adventuredome recently celebrated their 20th anniversary of being in operation! Now that school has started up once again the Adventuredome is operating at their seasonally reduced hours of operation. With that being said, it gives construction crews more time to continue construction on El Loco. I can now report that many of the footers have been poured and are curing. Some still need to be poured but I anticipate vertical construction very soon! Rim Runner's old control panel and operating booth has been removed as has all of the queue railings in the station. Things should get real exciting soon! Enjoy the photos! On a side note Fright Dome construction is in full swing. Looking forward to it this year! Happy 20th Anniversary! Footers have been poured!

chickenbowl Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I imagine track and supports should be arriving soon. Maybe they're already here, but in a back stage location? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Good to see that El Loco is having the new S+S cars with the Lap Bars. Green Lantern's lap bars and seats are some of the most comfortable seats i've ever sat in on a roller coaster. Will be interesting to see if they have fixed the onboard audio issues with this ride (if it has them) compared to Green Lantern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COASTER FREAK 11 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 It doesn't appear that they are removing any of the rock work like we had though (could have just been a rumor) But I'm excited to rid my first El Loco soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted September 5, 2013 Author Share Posted September 5, 2013 Won't be long before they start going vertical. I hope I have time to check it out next month when I'm in Vegas then ride it when I'm back in May! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arby Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Yay! I have finalized our plans and made reservations at the KOA beside the Adventuredome for New Year's Eve. I made my reservation early enough so I was able to get an upgraded site with 'real or artificial grass "yard" with trees and/or a shade structure.' That night should prove to be quite an adventure. Hopefully El Loco will be running by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
