Re: Universal Studios Florida | Unknown | Unknown Zola7 used coaster track, too. ;)

I wasn't aware that the station is up on the hill... And I like how it crosses Lisebergbanan's lift hill three times.

...and you have described a part of why I say Cedar Fair removes the soul of the parks it touches. I swear, if they had ever actually bought Gilroy Gardens, they probably would have removed the circus trees within a year.

Water was pretty clean the day I was there, and I could smell the chlorine. <shrugs>

Some people are never happy. I think it looks pretty fantastic.

Yup. Got it before it left the fairgrounds. Weird ride, not uncomfortable at all. IIRC the cars get tossed ofer the top of the lifts pretty quickly, so there's some partial-G action on the first drop.

I got to ride the Dollyfood one, and it rode exactly like I expected it to... A little less forceful than I expected, but it really is just a frisbee, with the arm turned upside-down, and with a barely noticeable counter-rotation of the whole ride. (The swing direction changes, but without...

Re: Thunderbolt | Coney Island | Zamperla The plot of land it will occupy is very thin and already flat, so ground preparation should go very quickly. Access is a city street, which can't hurt, either. I wouldn't be surprised if once construction starts it takes less than two months before the...

Re: Universal Studios Florida | Unknown | Unknown I would laugh so hard... And it would explain the short track length.

I thought you might have been unnecessarily harsh, then I watched the video. Wow. I hope that turns out better than it looks right now, because that looks like a dud compared to the original layout.

GAdv needs HIGH throughput rides.

The movie obviously has an agenda, and is conducted as a total hatchet job, and I do appreciate that SW has a fantastic rescue and rehabilitation program, and that the massive draw of Shamu and company is a huge part of the funding for that, but... It's the lies that they perpetuate that are so...

Re: Hunderfossen Familiepark| Il Tempo Extra Gigante | Unkno I thought the same, and wondered who stole from who, but some quick googling shows quite a bit of difference between the two cars, and there's almost no commonality between the movies apart from the fact that they both feature an odd...

I think it's the angle from up on the tower, but right now, it looks like the train is going to come into the final brakes with some serious speed.

Seahawks have had the Niner's number all season long. Why was today going to be different?

Your words... Are they tasty? :wink:

Re: Phantasialand to demolish the Western area for something I haven't been there, is that park limited by a local ordinance causing the crazy shortage of expansion space? Aerial images can't justify all the demolition that they do there.

Re: Universal Studios Florida | Unknown | Unknown Well, the Hogwarts station was an empty platform, and the Hogsmeade station wasn't much more than that...

Built my Marina Bay Sands. I'm really hoping that these rumors of Trevi Fountain are false.

These guys are flying. It looks like it's going to be done some time next week at this pace.
