I agree with you. I think this was the first year for walk on weekends. I hope they bring it back. It is by far worth the price of the gold pass.

They said in the video that construction started in February. Any ride that takes that long should be something to see for sure.

He said beavers...lol.. Just kidding! I say theme the ride already.

I just went flying today, I think you'll like what you see! When will you be posting the pictures?

Anyone have any idea how much a ride like this costs? Do you think that Paramount would ever add some of these rides to any of the parks?

http://www.buschgardens.com/buschgardens/va/ar_rides.aspx I have been waiting for this release since I visited the park in August. Now I don’t have to drive to Florida for a ride of this type. Funny thing is it’s not a coaster and it’s a well themed ride. Just goes to show you what brings people in. I know I will be taking the family back in 05 for sure.

Thanks for the tip. Now I won’t be screaming like an 8 year old girl anymore. At 32 things begin to hurt more. I do not want to give my kids anymore ammunition to use against me than they already have. I ride it no matter how bad it hurts.

I think a new area to the park would be great to ease the congestion on busy days. Anytime you can stretch the crowds is a good thing. Just leave The Beast area alone!

I would agree with you about Geauga Lake. CF is making a great move in moving the water park. I just hope they don’t do what they did at CP and up charge for the water park. At least they have a ton of space to expand.

Ok ill bite. I love the ride but hate the abuse my body takes.

Is it just me or has the weed and vegetation blocked the view of the ride? I am mainly talking about around where you can plop in a quarter, push a button and drench the rafts as they pass by. I sure wish they would trim those down so we could see out hard earned money used well. LOL

Is it just me or do you just plain despise PKI? It seems all you do is slam IJST and other rides at PKI. IJST hasn’t even revved up its engines and such the expert that you have already condemned it to break down failures and long lines.

Just goes to show ya that you can build those hyper coasters but they don’t always come. Or you can go with great theming and pack em in.

Runaway Reptar could have been designed to handle another train but it is such a short ride it would not make much difference. Besides that unless you have a kid why would you stand in line to ride it? As far as face off goes that is they type of coaster it is. If you want a comparison, look at Wicked Twister. It only has one train.

In the Columbus Dispatch they stated that attendance at theme parks has rebounded this past season. PKI attendance increased 7 percent to 3.5 million as it introduced CDBB. Cedar Point’s attendance fell 4 percent to 3.2 million from 3.3 million from the 2003 season. I found this to be very interesting. I always thought that PKI did much less than CP. Who’s the big dog in the yard now?

What a great site to feed my addiction! I just wish PKI would throw us a bone for the holidays!

That is so nice of you to take those pictures. I for one would like to see some closer shots of the new construction if possible. Did you notice any tracks for TIJ lying around anywhere?

I would have thought they would be much further ahead than where they are now. Not that we know for sure. I just hope the ride opens on time.

Hopefully PKI does another themed flat.

I love TRTR. From the time you walk up to enter the cue line the ride sets the mood. No other park in Ohio has a ride that does this. Once you enter the tomb you are entertained by the scenery and special effects until it’s your turn to ride.

My kids got a kick out of it.

Was it visible though?

Does SOB still hold 3 records?

Man what is the deal with what I call the “Foot boxes?†people will throw al kinds of things in there with all those shoes. Smells like a huge mistake to me. Anyone else ever think about this smelly dilemma? I for one would never throw my hat or some prized stuffed animal I planned on taking home in the “foot box.â€Â..lol

Publicity stunt for the site perhaps? Any money involved ?..lol Hey every man has his price.
