  1. ^^Yeah, you should have skipped the Colts game...The Barn sucks for them right now!!
  2. As long as Kalahari sticks around, I'm happy!!
  3. ^^Hahaha!! Why I stopped my modified way of riding Mantis and Chang...the G's were going somewhere I didn't want anymore!!
  4. ^^Yeah, "Coney has it!"...that was it!! And btw, and for the record, I never claimed SFGA...I claimed Ah-med-i-ka!!!!
  5. ^^And Nitro, etc....but D-back just seems to be getting more intimate with both the ground and trees!!
  6. It could be true...Carowinds is removing it!! Hey, did Coney see that Six Flags America's version of Intvertigo is for sale?! Why not get that!?! Btw, am I remembering this right?? When I lived in Cincy, was Coney's catch phrase "Coney's Got It!"??
  7. ^^Can't wait for B&M's first terrain coaster!!
  8. ^^I don't quite fancy stationary heights too much (but do like the S&S Double Shots, including the Stratosphere's), but does that 15 degree angle outwards before the drop really make a big difference or not?!?
  9. ^^YES!!! Well, for an alleged ~200 ft 2nd hill they still have a ways to go!! The Crypt building is what? 140 feet?? The track is barely eclipsing that now...more track should still be added if this 2nd hill is really going to be near 200' for the 193' 2nd drop! But what they have now looks good so far and is a great start!!
  10. ^^Hey! This post came 15 minutes after you said you were going to bed!!
  11. ^^What about the line for Acrophobia?!?
  12. ^^Giga said she had to work most of all day tomorrow. I am planning to finally get to Indiana Beach to check out Steel Hawg...pathetic I haven't already since I live in Indy! However, at the moment I'm feeling a little sick from a super greasy Five Guys burger meal (I guess that's what happens when you usually eat mostly healthy stuff) So if I don't start feeling better, like, NOW!! I'll have to shelve that idea and probably detail my car and watch the Cubs clinch the NL Central tomorrow!!
  13. ^^What?? And BLSC or AE aren't enough of a fix for ya?!
  14. ^^What's the quote??..."You've come a long way, baby!!"
  15. ^^Could flatbed truck drivers be of a different association than the const. workers??
  16. Ummmm....like Millennium Force?? Only instead of a breath-taking view of the Lake, or you'll get a view of ummm...ummm.... Western Row?!?
  17. ^^What about Lightning Racer??
  18. ^^Yeah, I can't tell you how many times the past two years I've been in line for SOB and people have STILL thought the loop was there!?!? But in the GP's defense, back before I was an enthusiast, I had no clue about such ride facts!? When I went to a park, I saw a ride and rode it, and when I left the park didn't think about it again until I went back to the park again!! That's what separates the GP'ers from the KIC posters. Of course, the average GP'er is also waiting in the longest lines at the wrong times, not riding in the most thrilling or smoothest seat, passing up on park gem's, and missing out on park perks...needless to say, I'm glad I'm not a GP'er anymore!!
  19. ^^Talk about taking a leap of faith with my discounted PP renewal then!!! Oh well, at least we can hopefully still verify the alleged 193' second drop height pre-11/2. Btw, Beast, you know how the webcam occassionally "messes up" giving you a good view of the lift area? Have you noticed any patterns or rhyme or reason to when it messes up?? Like, does it mess up to show that view on the 20's of each hour, or anything like that?!
  20. ^^So does that mean no first drop (and obligatory protractors to confirm the 74 degree descent) until AFTER Nov. 2nd?!
  21. Wow!!!! Well, I gotta hand it to you then!! I can't imagine my first few trips to KI once D-back is open and riding something else and thinking "What am I doing??...I could be in Diamondback's last row seat now, yet I'm on Flight Deck?! Ughhhh..." I guess that also means you wouldn't have approved when all I did was ride Maverick on it's opening day at CP!? Of cource, the line was always at least 1 hr 30 mins.
  22. ^^Which will hopefully be utilized to confirm the 74 degree descent!! So Beast, will you be the kind of person who drops by KI for 3 hours on a random Tuesday in June, or Thursday in August, or Sunday in September just to ride D-back 5, 6, or 7 times (including maybe in some previously unridden middle train seats/different trains), while most of us will have to make actual trips for our D-back fix?!
  23. ^^Yeah, but uninformed GP'ers maybe interested....remember, enthusiasts only make up like .0005 of a park's attendance...so give me ERT now!!!
  24. ^^Are the MF stats going to be current dispatch intervals?!
  25. July 6, 06!! Just as I was really getting into the enthusiast and traveling thing! After lurking on and off on KIC since college in like 2003 (thanks to the link on RCDB.com!!), I finally joined right after spending three straight days at KI since I was off from work for the holiday (living in Deerfield Twp.). Then I realized, I freakin love this park!! So I joined KIC. While thankful that I power rode SOB about 25 times during those 3 days, I'm sad after joining I only got TWO more looped SOB rides! The loop was definitely fun!
