Why breath air into the fire, why try to keep this flame war up. Let it go. It's over. Leave it.

All I have to say is WOW!

Not trying to start "Round 2" Just stating what a majority of opinions may be.

I would say the flagship ride in Coney Mall would be The Racer.

Watch out, this what I was trying to point out but was blasted and told I didn't know anything by the know all end all AZ Kinda Guy!

Updated post You can update your posts all you want, you still don't and won't know what you're talking about. And you know it all, Correct? No wonder membership has dwindled here. With douche bags like you jumping down people throats and acting like you are the know all, end all in roller coasters. I never said I knew anything for sure. This was my guess.

I do believe the "footer" or "footing" is made of concrete. Which is not made by the ride manufacturer.

ummm no. I never said it would be saved. I said it would "NOT" be saved.

Oh really? And you've seen the budgets? Did you get this information from "people you know?" The information you supplied about budgets to steel coaster maintenance is just plain wrong. Seriously, just stop. I think you need to chill out and walk away from the computer for a while. I have no idea what you are trying to say, but I was just stating that simple logic would be that wood is cheaper to modify and repair than steel. And the "people I know" comment??????? As I stated in the previous comment, I take it as rumor. So should you.

It is also easier for them to maintain wooden coaster as the cost of custom making wood pieces is cheaper then fabricating and installing steel track. Plus no matter how much you "protect" steel, it will rust and degrade over time. That is why you still see some old woodies around. **I am editing this post for those who need more explanation*** It is cheaper to repair small sections at a time as in a wooden coaster than it is to replace steel sections of a steel coaster. The wooden coaster requires wood that can be cut to size and replaced by the park maintenance staff with normal carpentry tools. A steel coaster, if a section of track or support goes bad that whole section has to be replaced, which would mean that the process of building a new piece of track and replacing it is far more costly than a wood coaster. For one, the part would have to be fabricated by an outside company which will cost $$$$ since track is not available due to Arrow no longer being in business. Yes, I know normal maintenance parts are available from S&S. Plus I will bet you S&S will not want to keep making parts, because this will require to have tooling setup to make these few parts for these old coasters. After so long; when the demand goes down, the cost of keeping the old tooling creates a monetary loss for the company. So since steel sections last longer than wood, by the time the track needs to be replaced, it would be an exorbitant amount of money to repair a 25 year old coaster.

From what I was told by people I know, Vortex last year will be 2014. As with any unconfirmed information just like Screamscape, take it as a rumor.

Wouldn't that be Horizontal? The supports are going vertical.

^ OK; this is getting old. I think he is just trying to see if someone will post pictures.

All I can say is the park was there first, so they would have no right to complain.

As for the terrain They're called earth movers for a reason.

Not much left?? I was there yesterday. Half the coaster is left.

I am really shocked they would advise students to this. Not very responsible on the schools part. Doing this may trigger someone to attack or open fire on such students. My motto. "Get the hell out of there any means possible" yes that include going through glass windows. I would rather take my chances with safety glass than a bullet.

Fright pass or what it is called is CF's answer to making more money with over crowding .

Have you looked at the weather report? High of 52 Sat and Sun partly cloudy That is colder than usual for the last weekend. It will be dead.

Some more pics from Twitter.

Wasn't that Fanboys or something like that?
