  1. it depends on if my dad can get off work. but next year i should have my drivers license and will go even if my dad can't get off.
  2. then lets switch them, turn the backwards racer forward and the forward racer backward. all you would have to do is switch the trains.
  3. coasterfreak gits toung twisted and you don't? or do you just not proof read your post?
  4. yea, when i was in seventh grade i went with the middle school band to preform in music in the park and we stayed at the hotel breakers and those rooms were in horridable shape. we even asked why they let the rooms go like they did and they said it was to keep the historicalness of the hotel. but the weird thing was the rooms were the only thing that were in such bad condition
  5. will there be a more diverce work force this year at Kings Island? i just ask this due to the work force at Cedar Point.
  6. In this weather no. Also keep in mind that right now flying is very expensive. If you think $40 to fill up your car tank is a lot, just think about what the bill would look like for an airplane. Right now I am sorry to say the only means of viewing KI from the air is by my old photos and satellite maps. o.k. i understand, boy i wish google would update there satellite images.
  7. I understand I am the off-season spy and many of you have been waiting patiently for aerial photos. Unless KI is owned by the government and has private airspace over the park, Kings Island and Cedar Fair have no say what-so-ever to tell people not to fly over their parks. so will pictures come soon?
  8. so if it wasn't for Firehawk you wouldn't be looking forward to opening day?
  9. the first time i rode this i was in shock with the thrill that this thing gives. i personaly think that this ride shouldn't be in the kiddie land surrounded by the little gentle rides
  10. That figure you quoted is not correct. Not even close. Just realized that it was very confusing to read, so i fixed it... hopefully it's easier now? I think he meant your figure of 70% is nowhere near correct. I don't believe it was a spacing issue in your words. well i can see where he is getting this, beings the recar almost always has a line twice the lenght of The Racer
  11. i think it was on how do they do it. one of the very first episodes. it still had upstop and side friction wheels but the top wheels were in grooves
  12. i was watching some show on roller coasters and it showed that blue streak has grooves that it runs along the track in
  13. i was thinking about how blue streak has ruts in its track
  14. then how about this turn the coney side forward and turn the x-base side backward so the views would be different
  15. There are many coasters that have been duplicated not only with their logos, but in design as well as name. Absolutely nothing unusual there. but those rides aren't one of a kind so it really it doesn't follow what i think and lets face it, it would look weird to see top thrills logo on a wooden coaster
  16. i would for one reason, and that i couldn't set in the back seat of the recar and watch the track pull away from me. plus i don't even like the forward racer
  17. wow they're cheap Parks are cheap because they reuse the same logos? Are ya kidding me? I would rather see any corporation use the same exact logo on their product, and spend their money on different things, or make things cheaper for me. Do you actually think that GE, one of the largest corporations in the World, has a different logo for all of their different products? Absolutely not. You see the same GE logo on a light bulb or a locomotive. i don't know why but to me a roller coasters logo is part of it's identity. And reusing it takes away the fact that it is one of a kind.
  18. No, I'm just saying that KD gets one GL coaster, why should they get 2? I say put it at a park like Knotts Berry Farm! Could it be because KBF already has a boomerang?Besides the only CF parks in the chain in need of a shuttle coaster are CGA,KD & Carowinds. could it be that i just said this?
  19. at Kings Island: wooden: Son of Beast and The Beast steel: Firehawk flat: Drop Tower of everything i have rode: wooden: same steel: top thrill flat: skyhawk
  20. i was just wondering if anyone else noticed that Drop Tower had what seemed to be more down time than usual after Cedar Fair replaced whatever part they did after the sfkk accident if anything has been posted on this, sorry
  21. i think if i was to get married in ki i would have the wedding in between The Racer turn arounds in the big grassy area there.
  22. No, I'm just saying that KD gets one GL coaster, why should they get 2? I say put it at a park like Knotts Berry Farm! but they already have boomerang and that is identical to head spin
