Trevannosaurus Rex Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 That was an excellent trip report. I had very little interest in the ride, till I read through. I love the idea of the Cheetah lure, it sounds ace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skycoastin Steve Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Fantastic report! Once again, Busch has seemingly knocked one out of the park with this project. Only three short months away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Too bad they didn't let keep that cool Cheetah Hunt hard hat--you could've worn it to your next fraternity mixer. Â This new ride and the area surrounding it just look better and better each day--great job on the report (looking forward to the videos). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ejectorbater Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Fantastic report adam:) You did a great job! Im liking what i'm seeing and wish we could fast forward to opening day, but then again, its darn fun to see this project coming together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonskeep Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I am glad to hear the launches are a little faster than originally thought. Launching to 38 out of the station is sounding a lot better than 30, a lot better...and that airtime parabola should be great taken at 50 MPH. Â Cheetah Hunt is officially one of Florida's best coasters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Any idea what's going on with Montu? Looks to be a lengthy closure with benches across and no employee in sight. A friend who was there over the weekend said it was closed so I'm curious if it's been closed all this time? Â According to pictures, it looks like they are doing work on its trenches. Â On topic, this ride look awesome even more now. Â Thanks, but considering that the picture of Montu being closed is in *this* thread, I'd say it's very much *on* topic.

Guy T. Koepp Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Awesome TR Adam. You and your camera make a great team! Â Can I just say, the way you were sexing up that hot Intamin track was almost pornographic. I thought that your report was devolving from PG-13 into full blown penatrating X! I'm sure there are a few pictures that you're keeping for yourself that involve lubricant, midgets and mayonaise. Kudos my friend! I hope it was a new, scary, exciting, and fully realeasing experience for you. Â Guy "Awww C'mon! I was talkin' about her cat!" Koepp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â If I had a dime for every picture that involved one of those three items. I could afford to take my entire family on every trip Robb & Elissa has done and will do in the future.
