Guys are you sure they're going to have the trains running in time for opening day? I know they're on the track but they haven't been moving at all. Maybe the wheels haven't been made yet?? I think they're way behind schedule!!!!

[deathbydinn]

There are only two cars on the track, how much do you expect them to move?

[sfgam#1]

I wonder if they're still going to create the hanger element ....

 

It has already been said MANY times.

All scenery as planned is still going to be incorporated in the ride.

Sorry, I'm to lazy to read the whole form Lol

I'm more enthusiastic about X-Flight after riding Wild Eagle at Dollywood last weekend--very good

 

I have been happy to read all the positive reviews about Wild Eagle and The Swarm.

The 2 cars they have on track will most likely be used for a pull-through/envelope testing.

B&M doesn't do a pull through test I believe. They have a metal envelope they use for testing but not a car itself.

[DJeXeL]

^I think you're correct on that. My bad.

Does it apply to ACErs?

[Jerrykoala2112]

I'll probably be buying the dinner season pass, as I go to the park so often.

 

But I'm still waiting for the Flash Pass for food lines

[Rollercoaster Rider]

I'm just gonna drink water. I can't afford to gain more weight.

'@WendyPackard Yes, stay tuned for info on what's new in Hurricane Harbor for 2012! Hint: What flys when your having fun?

 

Anyone else thinking flash pass for Hurricane Harbor? Can't remember if Great America mentioned they were adding it this year.

[deathbydinn]

^ Hurricane Harbor flash pass was announced at No Coaster Con, but I don't believe it's been publicly announced yet.

[Rollercoaster Rider]

Do Those Flash Passes really work at Waterparks? I see how they would work at theme parks, but Waterparks?

Seriously. $60? You can spend that in three meals there. Really good deal from the looks of it.

Don't they know that flies is the plural for fly? Anyway, I'm not sure if I would purchase the dinner pass. Yeah it's a good value but there are better places to eat outside of the park. That's just my opinion though.

SFGAm are having a season dining pass. There are details on their website.

[mcjaco]

^ Please read the thread. This is already being discussed.

[deathbydinn]

More cars are being put on the track today.

[sfgam#1]

There are 7 cars on the track now !!! I think testing might start soon.

[spinning man]

8 cars? I thought X-flight would have 7. The forces on the back seats should be quite forceful, comparing it to the swarm.
