Yeah, its really bad. I mean I love the atmosphere its in cause its at Kings Island and its a cool idea having it there. I mean you go to the park, ride a few coasters, then go see a concert. Only a few problems. Seating is terrible, views are terrible. Compare this to something like Riverbend. Riverbend is great and gets so many bands and events. Like the Vans warped tour. That brings in A LOT of money for riverbend. They can have about 5 bands play at once and its not all seating. Theres a grassy area and a general standing area close to the stage. I really think timberwolf needs to go and I can see it going in the near future. Thats a lot of room KI could use for some cool stuff.

Good point Boddah

Yes, Im 5, hahah you dont like the ride yet youve never ridden it.....you really think you know everything dont you? Once again quit acting like an idiot.

I think we also need to take into account that there were no leaves on the trees. During the tour I could see straight back to The Beast's station while during the season I cant see through foliage.

Modest Mouse was pretty good but most of the other bands brought in by House of Blues werent that good. Honestly, I dont think Timberwolf is a good venue at all. The seating is awful and Ive been to a few shows there. You can barely see over the row in front of you, if you can at all so kids stand up on the bleacher and the people behind them get mad and of course fights and arguments break out. Timberwolf is not at all a very good venue. The bands that come there are better off at places like Bogarts and Topcats or if your a larger band go play at one of the stadiums or the gardens (although I can see Timberwolf being cheaper) I would like if they pulled out Timberwolf and put in a few rides. Does it really bring in that much money for the park?

Kong fu guy get over yourself and shut up and stop being stupid, get back on topic, everyone here is sick of your crap. Yes the ride looks very cool.

The blue car was sitting seperate elsewhere on the track because as jeff said it was being tested earlier that day for something. It was sitting up closer towards the station. The other two red vehicles were, as you can see in the pictures, situated on the piece of track that switches trains in and out.

hahaha a movie would be cool. I hope Timberwolf gets some better acts this year....last year the only realy good act i remember coming was Modest Mouse on the HOB tour.

yeah, it was great. I cant wait for the ride to open.

PKI is featured on various travel channel/discovery channel/ other channel's shows about amusement parks and coasters. In fact theres one on at 2 this morning on the travel channel about the worlds greatest coasters though im not sure if PKI is featured although we all know it should be!

Hahahh well you have job there.

Speaking of hand grenades.....they didnt make us go through metal detectors tonight and it was pretty easy to slip off from the group. I did and got an excellent picture of Vortex.

Hahaah, im xtremely bored and i got nothing to do anymore so yeah ill admit im a post whore tonight. I look forward to seeing your guide sometime chef.

haah oh my god you were standing right by me. Now I know who you are. I asked about if the helicopter would be visible once the park got the ride up to normal operations or if it would be hidden.

I think i remember hearing about that guide book somewhere id really like to see it. (Now ive replied to every post on the main page and my name is the only name ont here....yes i am the post whore tonight!)

Im an idiot, I shouldve worn my jacket with the big letters on the back that say "Combat Stupendous" (cause its also my bands name) then you all couldve targeted me.

No, I dont think I heard anyone ask about it. Im hoping its something like Disney's fast pass system, id also like to see them put that in on some other rides like TRTR. They could put it where those useless lockers are but I dont see how theyd do the que. Yes I was blending in with my silly jacket. But I think my shoes stuck out.

Hopefully we will all get to meet once the park opens. It would be cool to hang out with you guys a few days at the park.

Yea I remember, its the old olive drab. Like I said what a shame we didn’t all get together. We could have put a target; I mean a name to a face for a change...lol. hahah a target? Crap, is their some conspiracy against me!?

I looked around for someone in a red Indiana shirt but didnt see one.....you probably walked right in front of me and Im jsut stupid and blind. hahah

The short girl in the IJ:ST shirt was Deleriumdreamer

Did any of you see me at all? I had a green army over coat from the 60's on and a black tee shirt and red chuck taylors and i was carrying around a silver camera.

haha ok, good thing i didnt say anything to that guy then. That wouldve been akward going up to him and saying "hey is your name family man on a fan site message board!?" I think i remember seeing you.

Hey family man were you the guy with the two little kids, one who was in a stroller, and you had some kind of PKI name tag on?

The ride looks great and construction is coming a long very well, from what I could see the theming is going to be really good. The helcopter is actually a real helicopter. The cars are very cool. The tour was fun.
