  1. I voted for I don't know since I didn't read all of it when I saw that it was 23 pages long. Next time you should make the stories shorter. I think that would help.
  2. I don't think PKI should model itself after anyone. It would be best for PKI to go in their own direction and do things their own way. Sure, they could learn from other parks but I think that PKI is big enough to set the industry standard themselves.
  3. I think that anyone who complains that SOB is a rough ride is just down right a wuss. Wooden coasters will always be rough and when you make a wooden coaster that big, what do you expect it to do? The only bad part about the train is that it has those god forsaken footpads.

    I haven't heard anything exciting about the flyers other than x-flight and batwing's barrel rolls are top notch.
  5. I hope they play something other than pop music. I absolutely hate that.
  6. I haven't been on PKD's, but I'm not really sure if you could actually tell the difference. I'm just happy that we have a DZ.
  7. Wow, did you guys get into the park to take these pictures? They're awesome! :rambo:
  8. I agree with mars! P.S. You guys are still doing great!
  9. I sent an email to Jeff Siebert asking what happened and he replied with, "You'll see..." I wonder what that could mean. Any guesses?

    I think that Paramount still trusts S&S. It was really Paramount who shortened Hypersonic XLC. The drop originally went all the way to the ground, but when Paramount moved it to PKD, they had to shorten the drop so that they could put it over the midway. By doing that, the only good part about Hypersonic is the launch.
  11. Well whatever they do, I just hope that it is more exciting. I mean, at the beginning you go up so slow and it takes so much time to get up to the top. I think that if they get you starting out fast that they can just give you an action-packed ride that never stops. Maybe we can even ask Jeff for some photos! :rambo:
  12. Wow TT is going to be awesome! Just look how huge that funnel is. All I can say is wow! Great job guys on taking the pictures. They are the best that I've seen! :rambo: P. S. The PKIC pictures are better than the PKIU ones so I don't know why Aaron even posted that link. Maybe he's jealous.
  13. 10. Carousel 9. Shake Rattle and Roll 8. Flying Eagles 7. Monster 6. The Racer 5. Dodgems 4. Top Gun 3. Drop Zone 2. Face/Off 1. Eiffel Tower P.S. Scrambler is receiving a major refurbishment this offseason.
  14. Backwards hands down because it is a one-of-a-kind experience. The only other roller coaster you can go backwards on at PKI is F/O. An added plus is the airtime. I just wish that they didn't break the hell out of that ride. By the rate that the wooden maintenance is going, SOB will probably be breaked so much that it hardly makes it over the hills.
  15. Well, I was riding The Beast when it was completely dark, there was even some fog in the woods and it just had a kind of creepy feeling. When we went through the second tunnel, you couldn't even see your hand right in front of your face, but then I saw a whitish/clearish hand right in front of me that came from the left side where I was sitting. Even my friend saw it and it was downright creepy. The only explanation we could come up with was that it had to be Tower Johnny.
  16. Does anyone know what the attendance figures were in 2003? I think that they would already of been released by now. If you don't know what they were, what would be your guess? At the beginning of the season it seemed like no one was at the park at all but at the end of the season you couldn't find a day that the park wasn't packed.
  17. The pictures are great! :thumbsup: Nice job guys! Please keep the pictures coming as they are a great source to squelch the offseason blues. :offtopic: I have a question about the contest. Do I have to sign up somewhere or am I automatically entered because i have more than 10 posts?
  18. I have to take a spin on The Beast before I do anything else at PKI! I'm building a tradition of riding The Beast as the first thing I do when I go to the park at the beginning of the season.
  19. I like number two the best. :cowboy: I wonder if anyone will get sick when they ride on TT, going up and down the funnel?
  20. This sounds cool, but what do you guys think will change?
  21. I voted not sure because I'd need to know how much it costs first.
  22. How much would this cost?
  23. Cool! When you take the pictures, please post them on here so we can see it!

    That coaster would be sweet if PKI got one. It would be like saying up yours Cedar Point!
  25. Click Here to see some ghost stories about PKI. Do you believe in them? I believe in the tower johnny one, because I experienced something in the second tunnel.
