RaptorGuy Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Actually, right now, Delirium holds 600 and Maxair holds 0! Maxair has been mysteriously closed down for the remainder of the season. When it was running, they were able to really move the que a lot faster than what Delirium does for some reason. Also, in my opinion, there's so many other things to ride at Cedar Point, that Maxair isnt a priority to a lot of people, where as Kings Island lacks in flat adventure rides, and Delirium is one of about 3 total that are worth waiting for.

FOFirehawkFAN Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Yeah KI is just slower at loading and unloading for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browntggrr Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 It could be that the load station set-ups are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KIBeast Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Delirium has a longer line, always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Touchdown Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Also do not underestimate the actual length of the queue for the reason Delirium has a longer wait. At CP the Maxair queue holds 3 cycles (20-30 min) max, at which point it does (frequently) spill out onto the Midway. However, even when the queue stretches back to WT its still shorter then Delirium's designed queue. People are much more likely to line up for a ride that has its line only filling part of its queue then one that spills out past the entrance, regardless of wait time, which is why Delirium usually sports a much longer line.

flightoffear1996 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 yea the line for Max Air is really short. I waited in it when it was filled up and it took about 15 minutes until I was riding. Usually most guest are riding Raptor, MF, TTD and Maverick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysteriously closed down... More like maXair blew a drive motor... again. I was up at CP this past weekend, and theres some parts and what looks like some sort of drive belt that is off the ride and draped over the top of the arm. I would highly doubt that it will re-open before the end of the season. I think they are just going to wait until the off-season to fix it and get it up and running next year. Yeah KI is just slower at loading and unloading for some reason. I've noticed that CP is a lot better at filling the pre-ride queue that KI is. The maXair crew has been really good at filing in 50 people and giving them their seat number before the previous ride cycle has ended, which is not what I can say for the Delirium crew. My guess is that that might have something to do with the higher pph capacity, since a lot of the time people are still getting their seat assignments when the previous ride cycle has ended on Delirium.

MarketingExpress Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 what had to be replaced on Delirium in 2005 To make a long story short and save a lot of technical terms, Delirium was not installed correctly. Nothing was wrong with the ride itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing was wrong with the ride itself. Where did you hear that it was installed incorrectly??? From my understanding a part broke and you could hear a really loud grinding noise when it went down for the summer. The part was a part that's not supposed to break and it had to be remade in Germany and was quite an expensive part to break...atleast a million from my understanding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
