robbalvey Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Busch Gardens Williamsburg update was posted... Â http://www.themeparkreview.com/parks/photo.php?pageid=42&linkid=6556 Â Griffon brings out the best in everyone! Â Backstage tour of DarKastle was VERY cool!

ernierocker Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Whoops, looks like you snuck an update by me on Sunday morning. Â Busch Gardens was an amazing day. It was fairly crowded that day, but with the Quick Queue and ERT, we pretty much destroyed the park. (Kind of like Busch Gardens is destroying Big Bad Wolf ) Â The Rapids spray zone was amazing. Especially, the machines facing Apollo's Chariot. If you could man all the sprayers and with the right timing, you could own some people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Fantastic photos inside DarkKastle, those 4-D dark rides are one thing that have always fascinated me. Â Did they explain exactly what the car does to make it feel like you are falling?...That's one effect I have never been able to get an answer on.

robbalvey Posted August 28, 2009 Author Share Posted August 28, 2009 ^ The car doesn't really do that much. Tilts down a bit, but it's mostly the visual experience of the film and set that your in during this part of the ride. Â --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philthephorce Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 ^^^I remember the tour guide telling us that they decided on a pneumatic system to make the cars tilt, as opposed to a hydraulic system similar to that of Spiderman. It makes for slightly milder movements, but as Robb already said, it really depends on how well the visuals sell themselves that make you think you're moving more than you actually are.

jedimaster1227 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 ^Busch Gardens Williamsburg treated us incredibly well on the East Coast trip, so I have no doubt you'll have a fantastic time with TPR on the IntimidaTour.

kenshinmac Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Amazing amazing update. It delayed me getting out the door this morning because I just wanted to see as much as possible.  Thanks again to all that were on the trip... Truly I am now a TPR trip addict because of all the fun I had on this trip. Both the shorter trips I did this year were great as well with another amazing group of people.  Thanks especially to Robb and Elissa for the amazing organization and generally being willing to put up with all of us weird people  I can't wait to see the DVD now... Sadly snow on the ground here now with a little more than 5 months till coaster season in CO again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
