Diamondback POV
Haha, well with Diamondback, your hat wont stay on your seat because you will be out of it for more than 30 seconds!

Having some trouble!
You could probably look at your missed calls and call that number to get back ahold of them. That's what I did.

I hope that the special gift is truly something special! I know that the breakfast at RJ was an unexpected thing, that might be the special gift. I kind of doubt that though.

Hmmm, there appears to be a train stopped on the MCBR. Just a little tidbit of info. Edit: It just left the MCBR

I cannot say this for sure....
I'd say MaXair, that's the name of the one at CP, is more intense than Delirium. Only because the ride program is different though.

No it isn't, but dang they did some major landscaping around the Crypt entrance! The Beast entrance will be towards the upper left corner of the picture.

Are you an Auction Winner?
That sounds like a good idea! I'll be alone so I'd be happy to join anyone else

I forgot to post this earlier, but I caught a good view of The Beast/Crypt area of Rivertown. The landscaping under the helix is looking nice!

Well, what I meant is that they have known that they are going to get ERT on it for about a week and have been anticipating it since then. We, on the other hand, have been anticipating it for 1 1/2 years.

I don't mind that they are riding, its just that all of us have been waiting for 1 1/2 years for this and they have been waiting, what, a week?

I think it would be cool to ride Beast in the early morning with some natural fog throughout the ride and no sunlight yet. pure awesomeness

A Note To Successful First Rider Auction Bidders
Haa, I hope they call after 4:30 because I won't be home until then from school and track practice! I have a $300 bid and I'm super excited. Edit: I'm confused though on how I would raise my bid because I probably will. Do I call the park via the number given on the Diamondback website?

Happy Birthday, Big Guy!
I just saw on the KI Insider website, there is a day in August where KI is holding a 10K and a 5K race! Myself being a distance runner in high school and loves XC, this combines 2 of my most favorite things into one awesome event! I'm DEFINITELY signing up for this!

Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
I keep looking at the construction under the lift hill and am wondering if maybe people will be able to walk under the lift hill, not in the queue. I think that would be very cool, but it seems like that would only happen just behind the yellow building because there is a fence that goes around that little area.

Realistically, how many Diamondback Opening Day rides do you expect?
I have only been on Mantis and Raptor, like Angie, and they were both fairly smooth. Mantis bumped me around in the OTSR causing me to have red ears, but that will not be a problem for Diamondback. Raptor was a great ride. My favorite part of that whole ride though was probably the zero-g-roll. It was IMO, the smoothest part of the whole ride. I unfortunately didn't like the cobra roll too much because it jerked me around to hard for my liking. Another down side to Raptor, the ending. One of the most painful final turns on a coaster, unless you are prepared and tensed up for the jerk that the turn gives you. But overall, BMs are my favorite kind of ride. I love the way that the track spine is designed: with a billion triangles all welded together.

Son of Beast's Loop
There is a difference between scraping and scrapping something. Just trying to make a joke, that's all

Son of Beast's Loop
I thought the loop was scraped? I don't really think that scraping the metal from the loop would do anything. ;)

I like the pun, but how can something be equally ineffective to something that is effective? Just curious.
