  1. Hey, @CoastersRZ can you give Gould a buzz tomorrow and get a quote on a dozen 4 passenger model 400Ts?
  2. I am just going by that price sheet you posted (the one without any prices. ). Electrics would just sound like golf carts. Where is the fun in that? Also note the electrics have a separate brake pedal.
  3. I beleive the electric models are parade vehicles and not tracked like the gasoline models.
  4. If you make the BBQ in Kansas City how can it be anything but authentic Kansas City barbecue?
  5. I don’t know, I am really concerned about the pacing of this new ride. Especially the 2nd half.
  6. Well I got 1 out of 3 right for sure. No Action Zone drink refill station announced.
  7. I don’t think it really matters anymore regarding the actual pass. I have switched back and forth between CP and KI in buying passes and even one year had one of ours different from the others. Last year my wife’s was through CP and due to a bone spur was not able to go to any parks at all. We were able to roll that pass over for this year for a $50 charge at KI. Have also lost a pass and had no problem getting it replaced at the other park. (Didn’t even charge us the $15 “nominal” fee)
  8. It’s cool that KI is getting a new installation. I had this sinking feeling it was going to be a hand-me-down from CP. When I was a kid the thing to do on the antique cars at SFSTL was bump two cars on a tight turn so the bumpers would lock and a ride op would have to run over and stand on one bumper to separate them. Opps. Fun times.
  9. Yeah, I don’t do that. Ever. Gallon freezer ziplocks for water rides and zipper pockets. $2 for a locker at SV. @chad_1138 No, the FL is only valid at the park you purchase the pass through. Want it at CP? Buy through their portal.
  10. Now if that $100 worked for an all day roaming locker like CP has for $10 it could go a long way to solving loose article issues. Under what circumstances is your phone at risk of being stolen at KI?
  11. 1. No drink refill station in Action Zone 2. Rivertown Free Style repurposed as claw machine arcade. 3. Parking lot trams make their triumphant return.
  12. While all of that is unfortunate it would be much less of a problem if the park were not so stingy with opening up dedicated refill stations.
  13. For comparison. We all know in many cases CP offers smaller portions on the meal plan than KI. Kiefer ate at the Panda there for the first time last week and was offered 1 entree, choice of white or fried rice or chow mein and either a spring roll or egg roll.
  14. I had no idea. Ryan would have eaten there if he could just get rangoons and rice, in fact one time he did eat there. Just white rice. Forcing chow mein on people is not going to go over well.
  15. Hold on here. I thought you got two entrees and your choice of white or fried rice on the all season meal plan. Period. Am I to understand there were other options available?
  16. Only problem with that is faulty sensors are usually what takes rides down. So let’s add like 80 more to each coaster.
  17. I see both sides of that. The parks have “no rain check” policies but we all know they do issue rain checks and other types of refunds depending on the situation.
  18. Certainly CP is less but I think you would be surprised by the number off Passholders. It is only an hour from downtown Cleveland so significantly less for anyone on the western side if the city. I have noticed rural Ohio is much different that rural Missouri in that most if it is developed and there are not huge swaths of sparsely inhabited forests in addition many of the small towns you have never heard of are not all that small.
  19. It’s all bait and switch. They are trying to trick me to make the bumpy trip down on 71.
  20. You know what is even more distracting than a lighting package? The Sun. Someone should really do something about that thing.
  21. If KI can ban wedding rings on a water slide I wouldn’t put it past them to ban watches on a coaster at some point.
  22. Expanding the depth of the beach by 50’ there would a major improvement. She must have super powers. We should pitch her to Marvel and Netflix for a series.
