  1. Diamondback Length: 5282' Behemoth Length: 5318'
  2. And to add to that, Diamondback is indeed a tad bit shorter than Behemoth by a few hundred feet. But I think Diamondback will all in out, turn out to be a better coaster. Theme wise and ride wise.
  3. I remember seeing a KI comercial not to long ago, and they used footage of Behemoth for Diamondback if I do recall. (searching youtube)
  4. You might be a KI addict if you have tried to re-create KI in RCT more than once...
  5. The only thing I dislike about those restraints is, if you get your foot on top of the metal plate that is risen a tad for the wheel.. Then your foot gets crushed while the other is nice and snug.. I don't know how many people that goes for but I'm so skinny I need it to come down like all the way..
  6. I'm 14... but 6 at heart..
  7. Nothing beats the classic sound and feel of a woodie... But I would rather ride a nice B&M than a woodie any day..
  8. EDIT: delete this post, stupid computer did it twice
  9. if it is educational in any way shape of form.. 90% of America will probably not want to go.. the American people are generally looking for great thrills when they look for an amusement park, not another boring field trip that's educational.. looks like a big waste of money and land to me..
  10. A few plastic fellows...
  11. It's definitely a lot different in person that just watching a video.
  12. I just had the unique experience of seeing Diamondback today. I got a behind the scenes tour of the whole ride with one of my mom's good friends that work at the park. I literally just got back and all I can say is WOW! This ride looks really intense. I was also able to see it run, it sounds like the classic B&M roar! I can not wait until the 18th!
  13. In the video at 1:10.. look closely at the dummy's, they raise out of there seats after the mcbr and you can watch them all fall back into their seats! This ride looks intense!
  14. -New Water Slides -Wifi Hot spots around restaurants(forgive me if their already there) -A COMPLETE CURCIT inverted looper -More theming on more rides -Flight Deck Re-Painted -A Penn Station
  15. its amazing what people will do in this economy just to earn a little money...
  16. ^ Not the splash down... the splash down was at the end.. but at the second launch, the water was eroding at the track, thus causing the end of the water features through out the ride.. am I right??
  17. That could be part of it but the chemicals within the water to keep it clean is what eat away at backlot's track and hence the removal. I promise it had nothing to do with the pumps not working in such. So what I'm saying with Diamondback is that chemicals must be watched carefully in order to insure the track being kept in top shape. It's definitely possible to keep it in great shape and I'm sure B&M engineers much better track than premier but still care will need to be taken. the water from backlot's splashdown never touched the track rather than a few drops here and there. Indeed water actually did.. the second launch before the tunnel.. you know.. where they pretty much sprayed you down and you were in a mini WWC for a few seconds ...
  18. For the first time today I saw Diamondback run from kings mills road and all I can say is... WOW
  19. Gotta save all them nickles and dimes! Knowing the economy now.. that's a safe bet even Diamondback can't buy!
  20. B&M's are people eaters! Im thinking 3 to 4 at most!
  21. Correct-a-mondo! ---------------- SOBFOF:2 goofywdw:2 CoryButcher:1 ---------------- Looks like we gotta a tie for first.. Thats all for tonight folks!
  22. ^ Was not including footings so that will give you one point sir! ------------ SOBFOF:2 goofywdw:1 CoryButcher:1 ------------ Next one.. and last one for the day.. How many acres does Diamondback cover?
  23. Alrighty here is a tough one.. How much does the whole intire ride weigh??(HINT: ton ton ton ton tumms!)
  24. Now the song is stuck in my head as i drift on into dream land... great. night yall.
  25. ^ We will count it.. -------- SOBFOF:2 goofywdw:1 -------- Thats all for today folks
