teacherkim Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I know who that “maintenance guy” was! Not me though. I was there for the Pandemonium unloading though. Hope I didn't get anyone in trouble! We were all questioning him pretty hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teacherkim Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Sorry about the double post, not sure what happened there. As an add on to my previous post. At the end of the night during ert I spoke to one of the security guards who happens to be friends with a co-worker of mine and he confirmed that the queue for Boss will not be altered in anyway, that the new flat will have the lighting package, and that they are discussing the possibility of moving the moon cars to what will then be the unused portion of the go kart track. That's it, that's all my sleuthing uncovered on this trip. Do what you will with the info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teacherkim Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Those are all true things. To be honest I’m surprised a security guard would know any of those things though. He or she’s been listening. .......And I have taught 7th grade for 27 years, I know how to root out important info from people when I need to.

LegendLover Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Honestly at this point, I’d just like to see Tidal Wave get removed for either an S&S free spin, a Zamperla giant Discovery, or a Mack powersplash. It is one of the rides of my childhood, but it just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. At a small park with three huge wooden coasters to maintain, I just would think the cost to keep it around wouldn’t be worth it, especially given that it will only get worse in the future.

Yeah. That's a good idea. Maybe that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollerManic Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Honestly I’d rather see an RMC Raptor come to the park (even over RMC Boss) but we know that’s not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastard69 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 RMC Boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendLover Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Honestly at this point, I think an RMC Boss would actually be a really good idea just because of the maintenance costs of the current Boss. Not having to maintain all of that wooden track would save a lot of money eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 What are the current maintenance costs of the Boss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastard69 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 ^Judging by how it rides, the cost is high and the budget is nil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castaway_kid Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I remember being told a few years back that the off season rehab is around $250,000 for the woodies, now I cant remember if that was total for the three or how the breakdown really was. On another note, you should be seeing more updates with excalibur around the time Fright Fest opens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 ^ If that's an accurate number, that's a pretty significant investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prozach626 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I don't think you're going to see RMC Boss or a Raptor. Our park doesn't need a new roller coaster as much as we all want one. I think it will be many more years before we see a new coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will be many more years before we see a new coaster. For the most part, I do agree with you. But I will say that a lot of GP people I talk to (and I mean outside of the park like work and such) do complain about the fact that there hasn't been a new coaster in so long. So it is something being noticed by the GP which as we all know is the target audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treburton101 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 My wife and I were thinking about heading to the park this Saturday (9/21), seeing as they’re only open 5-9 what are crowds expected to be like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacherkim Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Not sure how many will head out there for just the 4 hours. The park is being "rented out" for the day by Edward Jones so there will probably be some leftover when it opens to the public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymouscactus Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Wow. First time here and just spent the last 3 hours riding everything as a walk on and I really dig these rides (though most of the queue paths are ridiculous). Huge surprise to me that ALL the woodies were way way way better than what I was anticipating. -- also enjoyed Wonder Woman and Justice League though our vehicle was a bit messed up. Batman was insane mode, I swear every time I ride these they get wider each time lol. Great night. Loved The Boss. Especially that extra downward hill after the first drop.... totally caught us off guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollerManic Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 The extra down after the first drop and racing through the structure is one of the best starts to any coaster ever, I think (too bad the rest sucks). Glad you enjoyed it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
