Coaster Cow Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Whhaaaat? That just made my day! They aren't even run by the same company! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillrider Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Now that I look at the rest of the stats, they are all wrong. Ha....I think they got coasters mixed up. Here are the real stats for the ride... http://www.rcdb.com/3183.htm And here is steel force... http://www.rcdb.com/276.htm I know they probaly use the same T shirt company, but a weird mix up none the less.

Hayzle Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I am really looking forward to Chang coming to GADV, it may not be anything special, but it is a standup ride which seems cool (i've never been on one) and it is another solid ride in the middle of our lineup. For people who have ridden a lot of stand-ups where does Chang rate for you, just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I thought Chang was fun. I like Riddler's better, but it was still a good solid ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEAPUgrad Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I could be way off here but is there any possibility the train could be used to help create the Green Latern themeing to the train since RR is green? Maybe compare colors schemes and how they look and what not? Or maybe just for spare parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Roxy Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I could've sworn I saw something that said they were gonna paint the track blue even though it's the green lantern. I WOULDN'T mind it though. Two green coasters in the same skyline would get kinda samey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrataKirby Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 The green trains on blue track (or yellow) will look pretty tacky i think... Green on pitch black wouldn't be half bad though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For people who have ridden a lot of stand-ups where does Chang rate for you, just curious Chang was ALOT of fun. I'm used to the smaller versions of the B&M Standups like Scorcher and Vortex, so was worried about this one being a little too much. It was great fun.

Hayzle Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Well since Riddler's has only been running two trains for a while now I doubt the roller coaster formally known as Chang will run more than two trains. I am think that they will add a row to one of the trains from Kentucky Kingdom because it ran 7 row trains and the the green train will be painted and used as is the rest used for parts or maybe sent to great america for iron wolf?

CHILLERLC1 Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Word up: someone had a Twitter pic of Chang's train: black, yellow, red, purple against the simulator building - Old season pass processing side in between Dare Devil Dive and Nathan's on the Boardwalk. That view came from up high on the Skyride. That's really hard to get from ground level for park guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible but not likely. Iron Wolf uses Intamin trains because B&M wasn't making their own at the time. Some parts may be similar though, but if we needed parts or an entire train I would think that they would just use the Chang trains that are already backstage.

CHILLERLC1 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 That train is now near the former Shockwave site as well. It's like a changing of a guard, a rebirth even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayzle Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Anybody have an update on Scream Machine, is it gone yet?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I was at the park on Wednesday and Thursday. The Great American Scream Machine's first drop and first loop seemed to be standing, along with one other section of the track that appeared to be a turn. Also, the station is still standing. However, other that the entire ride has been completely taken down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayzle Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 They should've just imploded it with dynomite. Then Chang could be called Pheonix because out of the ashes a Pheonix arises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLERLC1 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) The station was gone about the first week the ride was closed. Only the lower half of the lift hill, the lower part of the first drop and the first loop remain. The bottom of the drop is gone.

Canobie Coaster Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 ^ I thought the station was still there since I saw the ride's logo and ramp while I was walking over to Superman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
