  1. The sub par great R food is reserved for park employees.
  2. Classic rides are fun. Bad Iwerx films are not. I dont think Days of thunder really has drawing power as far as names go anyways.
  3. its the B side movie. DOT was really REALLY dated. Plus if you really watch a nascar race the last 50 or so laps are the only exciting ones.
  4. Incorrect Drop zone would of been there but not the Gyro Drop Model. Ours would of been a regular 2nd gen Drop Tower.
  5. Like brad said WRONG! Thats what they thought happned. The lady was drunk.
  6. Not really. Out of the 10's of thousands of guests who come into the park daily did they ride the ride. It looks like they did not ride it. Looks like it was terribly un popular and it was easy to axe.
  7. Actually theres a REALLY good chance that if KC wasnt gone we wouldn't have the Frisbee. Remember the guests voted for the 2003 ride.
  8. I don't remember ridership being low on King Cobra, even during the last season "2001". And the arugment about not being able to get parts doesn't make any since to me either. Keep in mind, they are still 2 other TOGO stand up's still in operation at 2 other Paramount Parks. Skyrider at Canada's Wonderland opened just 1 year after Cobra, in 1985. You also have Shockwave which opened at Kings Dominion in 1986. So if parts were hard to come by, why are these 2 still in operation? Where do you think there getting the parts from . King Cobra was the prototype and the others are production models. Things may have changed greatly between KC and the others. Parts for KC may have been used that are not used on the others.
  9. Im assuming the concrete is still curing. Thank the wet weather for that.
  10. Easy. Every ride has a shelf life, Its was up. Plus parts were getting hard to get with togo gone.
  11. Meh welcome to the world of TV tapings. Watch the discovery channels tapings they do that alot.
  12. Well I didn't sleep at all. So I was uber tired when I left this morning. Mach 3 up 71 and I pull into the assiotate lot. I need to be in the VIP lot. I go back around. I sit and bs with Dane and co for a bit. Jeff comes out welcomes us ect ect. We walk back to The Beast. They had breakfest for us. That was just what I needed to make me even MORE tired. Then after a bit(second tyson lit up)we were told to come on up. We stood there for a good bit while they set the cameras up. Then they ran a POV shot then they fixed the camera back. We boarded and sat somemore............we go and as enthusastically as possbile we cheer. We do this a few more times and sit some more. Then were done. Dane reverts back to child hood and chases animals. We get back in the station. Stand around some more and ride 1 last time We head to the flyers. Wasn't even really worth it. Me and tyson hitup Tiques and Top Gun and Leave. I cant keep my eyes open anymore.
  13. Saw this over at westcoaster a few weeks ago. they had a Giant Frisbee game too.
  14. According to the 1989 map it was also called Wild Animal Habitat.

  22. The backseat has the most airtime on raven. Even one seat in front of it is not as violent. anywho this isnt holiday world unlimited.
  23. Yeah she may have but still raven has standup air all over the place. Including by the parking lot. Its ran even more insane for SRM. We are never going to know why. But this gets off topic dude. The raven already had seatbelts to begin with. PTC was just covering thy asses just in case.
