No it is not true. The campground is currently torn up with a big ass hotel being built on top of it. Foundation work was under progress last time I rode TOP GUN at the end of the season.

What exactly is going to happen in HB?

Do they do something? I always told parents they were just there to give the kids something to do. I will admit though that I don't know for sure. What I do know is that they will go on their own with nobody even in the car - let alone pedaling. -
The Helix 2000 is great - but the Helix 2001 is even better. It is so smooth, yet intense. And I think it would actually be a Helix 900 - or 900 Degree Helix on IJST.

A family coaster is something the whole family can enjoy. Beastie and Reptar are both family coasters. And since PKI calls it a family coaster - and they are putting it in Nick Universe - you are obviously wrong...

Have you even seen the MI stunt show? Oooooh - BURN!!!!!!! I would rather see the MI Stunt Show than ride the Italian Jaerb.

Most kids like doing it too - and feel accomplished when they make it back. -
Not just the concept - but the actual type of ride it is.
-
Totally b*tchin! The regular one - not the huge one. I know someone that got a 30' wide poster. I'm looking for the regular 5x3 or whatever it is.
-
Yeah that's right. It may be on that same show that will feature Flight of Fear and Beast. It will be a really good show, as coasters and sich, pkiDelirium and myself make numerous appearances in it.
-
I heard about that happening this summer. Only there were 3 people down there - the employee and two guests. The guests were later apprehended - as they were the reason SOB shut down. But still - what a dolt! "You visit PKICentral every day, and make serious posts that contribute to positive discussion. Pay 50 dollars for membership to the PKI Fanboy club."
-
They removed it because there is a lot of speculation on more important sites like Coasterbuzz and Thrillnetwork that Avatar will not be a coaster, but a coaster-like flat ride - most likely a Zamprela Disk'o. Someone did some brainstorming, and figured out that it could be possible that every new ride Nick Universe is getting will be Zamprela - part of a Zamprela package. Only time will tell. Personally I think it will be added back to the list, when we find out that it is indeed a coaster.

Is this back in the day when if the Pirates of the Carribbean broke down, the pirates would eat the tourists? -

I felt so bad one time. These people rode Skytours, and the kid asked if you had to pedal - and I said yeah - you know, just joking around - it makes most parents laugh as their kid starts pedaling like mad, and tuckers out around the first turn... Well, apparently this one kid pedaled like mad the entire way cause he was scared it would stall. When he got back, he was exhausted and really upset. The mother was irate and yelled at me for making her kid do unnecessary work, and "scaring her kid to death". I mean most kids love it - and they feel proud of themselves or something. They come back and you say - did you have fun - and theyre like YEAH! But not this kid. I guess you can't please everyone. -
Did you notice that IJST didn't make it onto any "Extreme Coasters 2005" or any such show?
-
Ouch! I have a really funny photo if you ever want to see it. Ooooh I got one. You drive 4 1/2 hours to PKI and they close the park early, at 12 noon, because of mid 40 degree temperatures, high wind and rain. To get your fix, you ride Boa Squeeze. Pay 50 dollars to the bank for your ACE membership, and have something to look back and laugh about for years to come.
-
Hey I got level oned every time I asked... "You ask a ride operator if the time is Ohio time or Indiana time. Collect 10 dollars and go buy some common sense."

Top Gun The Jet Coaster (Caro) is supposed to be one of the best. I don't see us getting a B&M. They are far more expensive than any other coaster manufacturer out there - and not as easy to theme. I would LOVE to see a cantilevered coaster built. Those things would be intense, and would be able to have theming that makes Revenge of the Mummy look like a POS.
-
Yeah - the ONLY ride I EVER took shifts at was MSD - and that was after I was sent there, trained, and fell in love with it. So yeah. PWNT. And I check bars in both a circle and a line. Well Troika is more of a 3 leaf clover pattern. I have checked bars on Delirium, and it is extremely easy. I beat Aaron B a few times... Sooo anyways... "You go to school and leave PKI early - just after your ride is FINALLY fixed. Sell your ride back to the bank for 1/2 of the mortgage value, and go directly to South Pie, do not pass the office, do not collect 200 dollars...

Chicken gravy or beef gravy? Hmmm....
-
I really hope we get the Addams Family coaster. The concept is awesome.
-
No, they are described by the track. Wood coasters use wooden track. Steel coasters use steel tubular track. Hades - Wood Voyage - Wood Adventure Express - Steel Gemini - Steel Like if Voyage had supports made out of cheese, then it would still be a wooden roller coaster. So yeah, youre wrong.
-
Raven is fun. I think of it as a wooden Top Gun. It is fast and doesn't let up. But its too short - and it just isnt awesome. Legend is freaking awesome though.
