November 20, 200817 yr Why in the world would you want an S&S woodie? CCI who is now S&S are not what they used to be... So Thunderhead, Lightning Racer, Kentucky Rumbler, Evel Knievel, and Renegade to just name a few are considered ordinary? I agree that Gravity Group has built some great rides, but I would not complain if CP went either way. I think S&S Woodies look pretty neat, another coaster id' like to see go to CP is something somewhat like this- http://rcdb.com/ig4065.htm I wouldn't be disapointed if CP got a GCI, im just saying i don't see them getting one unless it's alot more unique than the others. Renegade for example isn't like most other GCI's.
November 20, 200817 yr Would I be dissapointed if CP got a GCII? Ask me on Sunday, after I've ridden 2 of them.
November 20, 200817 yr Author Why would I want an S & S woodie? Perhaps because the two I have ridden are among my very favorite woods? http://www.rcdb.com/ig2588.htm?picture=24 (By FAR the best wood in the Dells, in my not so humble opinion). And: http://www.rcdb.com/ig2586.htm?picture=15 ' When it opened, the most intense wooden coaster on the East Coast, and by far. Either is miles better than any Gravity Group coaster I have ever ridden. As for GCII, the best I have ridden by far was/is located in a park now closed for good. Sigh.
November 20, 200817 yr Author GCII....not CCI: http://www.rcdb.com/ig1888.htm?picture=2 By far the best GCII I have ridden. I hope it gets relocated. I much prefer it to Thunderhead at Dollywood, the second best GCII I have ridden.
November 20, 200817 yr ^ Thats right I forgot you are not a Lightning Racer fan. Still one of my favorite woodies. I think thats what makes coasters so great. No 2 people have the same tastes or the same favorites.
November 20, 200817 yr ^^You mean, "And the winner is...Lightning!!" Btw, seeing and smelling the Wendy's from the LR lift when you're hungry is NOT a good thing!!
November 20, 200817 yr ^^You mean, "And the winner is...Lightning!!" Btw, seeing and smelling the Wendy's from the LR lift when you're hungry is NOT a good thing!! Mmmm Wendy's sounds so good right now. Tigey are you a Ligtning Fan?
November 20, 200817 yr ^^I mean, it doesn't knock my socks off, BUT...considering on all 4 of my lifetime HP trips this summer and last (during fairly crowded days) LR was near a walk on, has MF's (which I love), is super smooth (especially Lightning), and is really fun and enjoyable and in my mind how a true "racing" coaster should be, yes, I am a huge fan!! However, if I want my wood thrills, I go to Voyage or Toro, but if I want to smile and laugh, Lightning Racer it is!!
