I hope they leave just the primer on it.

I'm getting personal? How is me saying "I'm right" getting personal?

I'd rather participate in an online discussion with 5 people who know what they are talking about than 50 who don't.

Paul most likely knows more about it then you, no wait...He DOES know more about then you. Just sayin. Hmmmmm.... Looks like you're challenging my credentials there. All I did was mention the fact that the wheel material build up was being falsely recorded as paint chips. Show me again where I "attacked" our good friend Paul or even you?

I do believe you were the one who called me out initially. BTW, I'm right.

Actually, there's a huge difference between a paint chip and wheel material build up. Wheel material build up proves nothing in regards to needing a new paint job, which is what our dear friend Paul has recorded. BTW, the people that matter know my credentials and frankly, you don't matter.

His "credentials" speak for themselves when he thinks wheel material build up is paint chipping.

Maybe because I know what I'm talking about? You should take my advice of knowing what you're talking about before you speak or in this case, type. ECSPECIALY before you call somebody else out on their credentials.

rctfreak, if you're so confident, lets put some money on it. Pauls credentials against mine.....Haha

And how does wheel material build up do that? I think it's a case of the original video owner not knowing what he's talking about (in this case filming).

So whats the purpose of the video?

I don't understand what that Youtube video shows? What's the purpose of filming the train pass over wheel material build up?

lol @ smooth out Vortex

Looking at those two pics TopGun1993 posted, anyone have any idea why they rerouted The Racer exit?

I'm glad they are cutting down the trees.

Seriously? Get over it already.

And to be perfectly honest, it looks a hell of alot better without the ugly radar tower.

The later opening day is clearly a money saving move.

I didn't realize you were familiar with the criteria for passing the state inspections. Oh that's right, you're not. And before you ask, yes, I am. I will not respond to your comments, as I do not feed trolls. You think I'm a troll? HAHAHAHA... It's best to know what you're talking about before you go making false accusations. Btw, you responded to my comment.

Sorry but Planet Snoopy was not a "huge investment," and how is 2011 a make or break year for SoB? In the grand scheme of things, the park could care less if that ride sits for another season. The ride itself has sat idle for how long now? What's another season?...And where do you get the idea that just because FlightDeck doesn't have a fresh coat of paint that the ride is shown a "lack of care"? Do you think the wheels change themselves? How about the track bolts? I guess they replace themselves as well. Thankfully the ride has the self welding track option or that would never get done... You really don't "get it" dude.

In my non professional engineering opinion, Son of Beast is engineered just fine. The park got what it asked for. The worlds tallest and fastest looping(at one time) wooden roller coaster.

The fog is no longer used due to the fact it interfered with the electrical sensors, not due to budget reasons.

LOL @ "contacting Mr.Kosmac" and "I have already talked with Him about it"

I seem to remember the operators walking around with about a 6 inch long hand held piece of wood to make sure the restraint was down far enough before the seatbelts were added.
