O.K. third times a charm so could the Son of Beast accident been avoided? because when you think about it when they removed the sixth car from each train they added weight to the remaining five cars to make the five car train equal the weight of the six car train( the little boxed under your feet that appeard in the '05-'06 off season) which would throw off the displacement of the weight of the train EX: take a 30 lb. weight and throw it at a two by four then take a 90 lb. weight and throw it at the same two by four wouldn't the peice of wood be more likely to break as did the support beam did on Son of Beast?

me to

did they change the lay out of The Beast? because for one the helix is backwards and two you don't go over a bunny hop hill after you come out of the first tunnel until after you turn to the left where the lay out pictured you going over the bunny hop as soon as you come out of the first tunnel. and to top it all off when The Beast first openned it didn't have a tunnel over the helix o.k. i am starting to second guess myself was The Beast suppost to have openned with the tunnel on the helix or not?

i would also like to see The Racers with the final bunny hops back and then the antique cars back

yep that was 14 years before i was born

well when you think about it paramount was the one who chose to put the breaks there, being they were in charge when The Beast was built. No, they were not. Taft was. Beast was built long before Paramount Communications bought the parks. 1979 vs. 1992. . . See also: http://www.KICentral.com/history/timeline.php i read my roller coaster book wrong it says The Beast was built prior to the parks puchace to paramount, but i wasn't thinking when i read it

those had to have been some of the weirdest trains i have ever seen. they looked like disaster transport's trains hooked together

if they ever put stronger breaks on The Beast again i just hope they don't put them on the first drop like they did on mean streak, because that is just painful getting almost up to full speed and then slamming on the breaks.

i never got to ride it at gl but as far as how it looks i like it better at ki because one for the colors of it and two it has a place to set in at ki insted of setting in the parking lot like at gl

Exactly. I couldn't even find the kiddie area. yea if you look at the Cedar Point park map both kiddie areas combined take up about 1/100000 of the park map

building a millenium force style out and back coaster would be great, but don't theme it with a member of The Beast family because that would ruin that theme because it wouldn't be wooden.

o.k. if that is the case i am glad that it is a gyro drop one for capasity and two for the view you get insted of being fixed in one direction

what is that suppost to mean kwindshawne?

i did but if ki has seven differnt wooden coaster trains at the park like what topgun1993 i'm pretty sure you can use one on a Son of Beast and still be in good shape with six trains of spare parts.

so is the only differnce the gyro drop spins on the way up the tower?

if they wanted it to look like a road then why didn't they put a double yellow line going down the center of the track?

i thought that water was the run off from the water ride that is where tomb rader stands today.

this will most likely sound stupid but what is the differnce in a giant drop and a gyro drop

o.k. since that question was answered here is another one. if the story behind Son of Beast is you are going to find him in your PSV why was the design on the trains bio-hazardy looking? because i never heard any thing about Son of Beast being hit by a nuclear bomb.

i have never been to GL, but with what i posted before you i was talking about CP not GL. so were you talking about CP or GL. or did GL have a poor kiddie area like CP?

me too, but with demon drop you get something you normally don't get on a drop ride. and by that i mean finishing out on you back

so you're saying Son of Beast's trains were painted with bio hazard design because you were looking for him and that is not what i am asking. i am asking if the first trains on The Beast's paint job was incorperated into the Son of Beast trains
