PKI Punk

When you say TR:TR stopped you upside down do you mean the ride physically stopped upside down or the gondola just kept spinning?

It is compact for a few reasons... 1. It would be a B&M dive machine meaning the track layout would most likely be a figure 8 to some extent. 2. The coaster would be partially indoors (the lift) so this part of the ride would not take up much room. (it would be an almost vertical lift). Take this info for what its worth.

Odds are that PKI will not add anything to AZ. Look instead to CM or RT. About what the park gets in 2005, as the season progresses, it leads me to think that all the park is going to do is revamp CM or something stupid like that.

PKD had three, but they removed one of them. CP has three: Thunder Canyon, White Water Landing, and Snake River Falls. NOTE: All above listed rides are water rides, not necessarily "log flumes."

Something always goes wrong b/c the ride always has a lot of down time. I would just like two things from TR:TR. 1.The ride not hang you upside down for so long. 2. The ride do a few more top spins.

Yes it is.

1.Disney World is on the list in the form of Magic Kingdom. 2.Why the he** is Camp Snoopy and Astroland on the list? 3.Why is six flags astroworld on the list and not SFMM? 4.Carowinds, but not PKI???

I went up PKI this morning (7/11/04) to take advantage of the ACE walkback for the first ride on The Beast for the day. I got to the park expecting a few people to be waiting on the ACE marker, but to my surprise,no one was there. My father and I were the only ones there. Two PKI employees walked us back and we got right on. I must say that if you are an ACE member and have never done this before, it is worth it. My father and I were the ONLY ONES on the train! It was great! We got two rides in the front seat before the general public came back. After The Beast we went to check out the line for TR:TR, but guess what...it was closed. So we rode The Beast again. After this third ride, we rode Vortex then FOF. We then decided to check out TR:TR again, but the line was hugh. So again we walked on The Beast. We then ventured over to AZ. We were going to ride Delirium, but the line was long. So instead, it was off to SOB, which I must say had the longest line that I have seen in a while. It was down to where the que's are. That is about it. Overall it was fun (Other than the long lines which I think was because of Walk on Weekends). The best part was having The Beast all to myself, it was great. You have to try it.

I must say that I agree 100%. !400 posts!

OK, I was just wondering.

Don't you know what sarcasm is?

Why is this topic still open since eveyone knows we are getting a coaster.

New lighting and special effects? All I want is a few more top spins!

I would think the park has enough time on the off season to add at least one new program.

I have a question in reguard to TR:TR. I just got back from a trip to Orlando. At MGM Studios, I rode Tower of Terror and found out that they can change what the ride does everytime you ride it. Why can't PKI/Huss do this same thing to TR:TR?

20 minutes. I live in Northern Kentucky.

Jeff is just playing mind games with everyone. If we get an announcement, I think it will be... 1. At the end of the season. 2. When we begin to see construction. or 3. Next season/off-season.

Well, it sounds like nothing was told at Beastbuzz. I have been in Orlando for the part week, can some one tell me how Beast buzz went?

My mom was at the park last Thursday and said that a friend of hers recieved this survey. It was given to her when she entered the park, down be the stroller/wheelchair entrance. I would like to recieve one, it would be kind of cool!

My friends and I went to Dollywood Tuesday (June 15) and before I even rode Thunderhead, I thought that it had no way of being better than The Beast. Let me tell you, I WAS WRONG! It was the greatest wooden coaster EVER! It had crossovers, speed, and airtime. It was unbelievable! Sure The Beast is awesome, but Thunderhead kicks @$$. I HIGHLY recomend riding this ride!

I have an idea, how about taking less to PKI when you go, or empty EVERYTHING out of your pockets before you go through the security check.

Could someone that is going to Beastbuzz take some pics? I wish I could go (this is the second year I cannot go do to vaction), but I am leaving for Orlando. I have a question in reguard to the WDW tours. How do you sign up to take these?

\ It's actually 76mph, but you are right it is an unbelievable ride.

I didn't want to start a new topic so I will post here, I figured this topic was close enough. I was at the park today, Sunday, and I saw Montel Williams at the park. He was in a PKI van taking maintenance roads. I saw him cutting the line at The Beast and The Vortex. Just thought you would like to know.

I was at the park today and rode it. It brought back so many memories. It is an awesome ride.
