Guest rcfreak339 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 ^so wait... you're saying they're crap, but agreeing that they're not at the same time. Try thinking before posting. Arrow is anything but crap if you ask me. Just going through the park today I was thinking how the arrow coasters have the best chain-lift sounds I can think of (Magnum, Vortex, AE). But dont go thinking that I like them because of the sound of the chain. All great coasters if you ask me. Not to mention, they've designed many record-breakers. Gemini and Magnum were both the tallest in the world when they debuted. That being said, the departure of BBW hits a personal note with me. I was a little kid when I first rode it, and it looked fun from the side (because I couldn't see the GIANT drop down onto the river!). So we got on, and needless to say I was terrified going over that hill, but afterward I just loved it. That propelled me to try bigger and better things. So I guess I have that ride to thank for developing me into an enthusiast. Mind your own business. I think Magnum is crap, yes. And I was responding to "Jackson's" post, not yours. So thanks and good day. LOL I find it pretty darn funny how you say Magnum is crap but yet you rate Magnum a 9/10 on your coaster list....

HTCO Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 ^^^We have The Beast, Fairly Odd Coaster, Racer, Son of Beast, and as you like to say, Adventure Express. I don't need you to tell me what I already know. Adventure Express is 90% wood. Just not the track. Not need to get all fancy with it. Adventure Express is classified as a STEEL roller coaster! The track is made of steel. The supports how ever, are made of wood. Supports have no effect on the classification of the ride. It doesn't matter if you use steel, wood, plastic, Styrofoam, play-dough, or basketballs & glue. Even though most of those are a bad alternative, it is still true. This is like the 50th time I have had to explain this on and off these boards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flightoffear1996 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 What do you think they will replace it with. I would like to say a flier would be nice zooming past that town but that town may have to go also to remove the bbw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondbackLover Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Steel...... Thanks for telling me BUT I already know, lol!

This is like the 50th time I have had to explain this on and off these boards! I am aware that AE is a steel coaster. DiamondbackLover said he wanted more wooden coasters at KI, so I was pointing out the wooded coasters in the park. I read once he considered AE to be wooden, so I thought I'd throw AE into the list of wooden coasters at KI just for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTD-120-420 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Cheese and Rice people! Didn't you're parents ever tell you not to argue with stupid people? Don't argue with him! If he wants to call it wood let him do so. 4 pages of this nonsense is driving me crazy. A great coaster is being torn down this year and all we are doing is arguing with a 12 year old. Really? Come on. I will be able to get a few last rides on BBW next month. I love the ride way more that Iron Dragon and Top Gun. (Flight deck) I will miss it.
