SharkTums Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I have been told that this coaster has the most sustained positive G's that Robb has ever experienced on a coaster! Pretty crazy! We'll have lots more details tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeist04 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 ^Interesting, but not surprising. I never doubted this coaster would be intense. Definitely looking forward to the review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilltopper39 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Not that it matters, but I think I like the color scheme on Carowinds' Intimidator better. But looks like a pretty sweet ride, great addition to Kings Dominion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have lots more details tonight! Holy moly! I cannot wait. I wanted to drive up there but I can't do it after just going to Carowinds last weekend.

coastered Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Looks like a good strong ride, only wish I was closer in the world to be able to ride this!!!! You're not the only one. I used to be on the TPR IntimadeTour 2010, but I had to cancel it. No I have to wait at least 2 years before I am able to ride I305 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willh51 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 From a Times-Dispatch article: "Nine-year-old coaster enthusiast Josh Rachlin said, “Oh my God, that’s the best coaster I’ve ever ridden!“ His dad, Doug, added, “My favorite part is the smoothness. That makes me happy." - Good to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorkscrewFoley Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Elissa, did Robb say anything about grey outs on I305? I know Millie was known for causing grey outs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atem122 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 From a Times-Dispatch article: "Nine-year-old coaster enthusiast Josh Rachlin said, “Oh my God, that’s the best coaster I’ve ever ridden!“ His dad, Doug, added, “My favorite part is the smoothness. That makes me happy." - Good to hear. To be fair, 9 year olds (myself included when I was that age) will say any tall ride is the "best ride ever!!1!1!1111!!." And the smoothness is a given with today's ride design technology! That said, the positive force on this thing looks beyond beastly, and the airtime on the first hill looks pretty good too. I can't really judge since I'll probably never ride it, but it looks like those trims REALLY kill the airtime on the 2nd airtime hill. That said, I'm going to hold off any validity to that comment until we get some actual reviews of this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have lots more details tonight! This looks awesome in action! I'm looking forward to comparing this to Millennium Force. Elissa, did Robb say anything about grey outs on I305? I know Millie was known for causing grey outs... If I'm right I305 will be the winner of this battle, because MF is famous for having no forces of any kind at all.

gforce532 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I appears to have the best of both worlds with extreme positive and extreme negative Gs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeT Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Oh my God ! I`m sooo curious what Robb`s gonna share with us...do we (probably) have a new TPR-Nr.1-Steelie-Candidate ??? Greeds...GeorgeT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emiroo Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I never realized that first turn is immediately after the first drop. Carrying so much speed, it's going to be wild to say the least. Can't wait to hear the reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willh51 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I actually just included the kid's quote because it was funny, but I mainly liked the part about it being smooth. Can't wait some updates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taytig Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I have been a MF fan in the past, but I think that this may become my new favourite. I can 't wait to ride it this summer! It looks like a lot of fun and the transitions look intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
