dstephe9 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 So, how's Thunderhead this year? From someone who rides it about 15 times a year I feel it is getting rougher and rougher but several people disagree.. a lot agree lol.. so hard to say Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ape Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 So, how's Thunderhead this year? Well if you ride in the front seat, lean forward, hold onto your lap bar with you left hand and pull on your ear with your right hand it is smooth as can be.

coasterbill Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Keep talking. I feel like everyone who talks crap should ride Mean Streak in row 2 sitting normally. Then we'll see who's laughing. jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ape Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 A conversation for a different thread but I will say I have had one good ride on Mean Streak out of 100 or more. Any new updates going on with Lightning Rod? still in tech rehearsal and only one train? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicman Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 ^We don't need to have updates every second. It's fine to have a few days let alone a few hours without any posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ernierocker Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Considering the situation, his question is fine. I am curious as well considering this is an ongoing situation and this is a major holiday weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImNotOneOfYou Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 ^We don't need to have updates every second. It's fine to have a few days let alone a few hours without any posts. Don't complain about updates. On second thought, go right ahead. Somebody complaining about updates is what started the rise of the boat in the CP thread.

DefeatistNation Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I just feel really lucky I got my ride in a few days ago. When I was 3 trains away from riding I was just holding my breath, whispering to myself: "pleeeeeeeease don't break down." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appel Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I am also dying to get some updates as I will be in the area at the beginning of July, so I like to know how the soft opening went the last two days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFOG1991 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I'm waiting to hear it goes into full operation. I wanted to go this weekend but not if its still doing "technical rehearsal" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollywoodlover20 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Website currently says Tech Rehearsal. They haven't ran trains in two days so I'm not sure what's up. One of the workers on IG took a selfie from the top of the launch hill so I'm wouldn't base any trips because it's in tech rehearsals. I don't think they'll hold a huge special event for the opening of the coaster. Dolly was mentioned to be in the area this weekend, if it opens she might speak a few words, other than that probably nothing major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dstephe9 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 This will be a huge crush for Dollywood if they don't get it open this weekend.. AAA is saying this is going to be the biggest travel weekend in history! Memorial Day falling a week later than usual, gas prices as low as they are, and other things are making lots of people travel.. if they don't get it open i can see several people changing their plans even though they shouldn't lol.. lots of locals might not make it up because they know the coaster isn't open, and whatnot.. This will end up hurting Dollywood a little i know it will Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TB305 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Just like it's hurting Sea World and Iowas Adventure and Busch Gardens by not having their new rides open Error 404: Logic not found. Mako is on time, it was always advertised a s a summer opening. Monster is on time, it was always advertised as a summer opening. Cobra's Curse, while delayed slightly, is still far more on track than a 2-3 month delay. It's especially forgivable given that it's not an Earth shattering coaster like LR supposedly is.
