MarketingExpress Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 The fish tail effect has been there since day one, but it is hard to feel while riding because the cars themselves only move an inch or two. Quote
LongliveKingsCobra Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 So what does the effect do? I've been asking that for over four posts by now.... Quote
kjkjkj Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 It does exactly what it sounds like, it "fishtails" you know, the back end slides out a little on a turn?... Quote

LongliveKingsCobra Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Oh makes sense now. Does it really? Quote
Monroe Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 No, but it works if you try not to think about it. But you can't feel it unless you know it is happening. Don't forget to sit in the front of the back seat, you can really feel it there. Quote
MarketingExpress Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Don't forget to sit in the front of the back seat, you can really feel it there. Wouldn't that be the front seat? Quote
Monroe Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 ^It all depends on your perspective, are we talking about the front of a car, a train, or a row of seats. Or are we talking about a different dimension. Quote

VortexPKIFreak Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 The billboard that the cars shoot out of has changed. I personally dislike the new name. Its so plain-ish. I guess its only because I liked 'Italian Job' as its name but its Paramount licensed. Oh well. I'm still calling it by its old name Quote

I liked it, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064505/ Michael Caine was and is a great actor. The action was great considering when it was made, and the story line.........oh you were talking about the re-make, sorry. Quote

Vortex Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Can anyone please tell me why the speakers where taken out last year? This is my sisters favorite ride in the park and she keeps asking every time I was at the park last year. Quote
MarketingExpress Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 ^ I noticed today that they installed speakers on the brakes outside the unload area that plays the audio that was suppossed to play in the cars at the end of the ride in '05. Quote
