Whats the funniest rumor youv'e ever heard?
when i was in 6th grade one of my friends said that the shocks on the flight deck trains were computerized so they pushed out and pulled in at only certain times. and also that last season they sped up flight deck ten miles an hour.

i was just wondering if anyone on here has been lucky enough to be looking through random roller coaster pictures and then found yourself setting in the picture somewhere? i have found myself in two pictures, one was from some ace event at Kings Island where i was riding The Racer, and then somewhere i found a picture of me on The Beast.- Paramount Names Remain for '09?
yea, they even have a sign in Vortex's station saying that it isn't paramounts Kings Islands fault if something left in the station is lost or stolen, and isn't congo falls named after a paramount movie too?- Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
quick question, will they put a train on the track before they make it a complete circut, or will they wait and then pull the transfer track over and slide them on there? and yea, i know i set this question up for one of terpy's infamous "yes" answers.- New Perspective of the Park from Diamondback!
