djcoastermark Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I always enjoy a good coaster show, and last years ICW was a lot of fun to watch. It will be just as fun to watch this years episodes I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrbuzz Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I'll have my DVR ready to go, can't get enough coaster shows. It's a shame Discovery channel doesn't do the shows like they used to. At least Travel Channel is picking up the slack now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boardwalkbullet91507 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 OK, so if I'm not mistaken, the footage shot recently for Insane Coaster Wars on the Iron Rattler and Outlaw Run won't air this season, but next season, right? I'll have to set my DVR! The selection of rollercoasters for this season is very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArundelHigh Coasters Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Lol, I love how right after I got a notification from TPR, Insane Coaster Wars notified me.

Woodie Warrior Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Are Boss and Mr. Freeze at SFSTL going to be on ICW in season three? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterman17 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Why was El Toro not in season 1's top ten????? (this requires 5 question marks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodie Warrior Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Why was El Toro not in season 1's top ten????? (this requires 5 question marks) I think they took the top ranking coaster from each episode, and then in two of the categories the coasters were really close so those 4 made it in as well. We don't even know if El Toro was even #2 in its episode. The Beast could have been up there too. It also made no sense why Aftershock won its episode when WAY better inverted/flying coasters were there (like Manta). But hey, the gp obviously saw the backwards part and went "OMG!!!". But hey, the show is awesome anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 ^ The voting is done differently this time and I think you'll see it makes a bit more sense. Be sure to watch the show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
