TTD Maverick Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 On a limb yesterday, I decided to drive up from Indy to KI. I got there around 3, and it was packed. I was in the mood for DB, which had a 30 minute wait. Not too bad. - The ride gave me a headache. It's fun, but I got zero airtime. And Millie ends this sucker any day of the week, imo. After that, I wanted a ride on Drop Tower, which was 20 minutes. FUN AND SCARY! Love this one, so much better than the thing at CP. I was really getting hungry, went and got some graeters, then did a marathon on Racer, which was a usual walk on. I got 11 times in about two hours, but the ride ops really took their time. Air time filled, smooth, and extremely fun. Wow. I then got a turkey leg that was extremely greasy, but it was good. Headed over to DB around 8, got two rides on it. At night it is a little better than day, but I was expecting more. So. Many. Lights. Invertigo and Beast have better night rides, unfortunately. Went over to Beast. 60 minute wait. Nah. I then wanted to see what AE was like at night (9:30 about) and all I can say is WOW. I usually hate the ride. But it is amazing at night. DB take a tip. No lights and I didn't know what was coming next! Fantastic. Then Fireworks. KI sucks at putting these off. Anyway, I got 18 rides in about 7 hours, not bad at all. DB - 4 Blue Racer- 3 Red Racer- 8 Adventure Express-2 Drop Tower - 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Don't say you got a headache on DB or they'll close it down - then there will be 2 SBNO coasters in the park! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First off REALLY?! 1. did you staple yourself? or sit towards the back of the middle? cuz then no you won't get airtime. i'll have at least 3 secs in any seat i'm in if i leave 2 clicks. and what lights?! DB has NO lights minus the work lights that are only going up the lift hill. Personally, i'd LOVE to see running lights on DB like they have on racer and Vortex. I think it'd kick ass. But I'm trying to possibly think of what lights you could possibly be referring too other than the few on the lift hill. Thats what makes DB a great night ride! And of course AE's a great little ride! And yes, much better at night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast79 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 The only lights I can think of would be the lights on the lift and the ones on the midcourse breaks. As for air time I haven't rode once with no air time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 No airtime on Diamondback? No credibility, I say. I bet we never see a response from the...uh...gentleman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KI FANATIC 37 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Really, well if you had no air-time on that ride it was a shame. Try it again in the front or the back. (Just my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyMan98 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Well I don't get any airtime (and I'm so light) but the ride is still the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74Gibson Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Those who say the got no airtime on DB must be talking about radio play . How do you get a headache from DB then ride Racer (which I love) 11 times and not complain about roughness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotag Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Hey, I'm a BBBIIIGGG guy and I always get airtime. Not sayin that people aint rode it, but if you don't, IF YOU DON'T get airtime then in my book your credability just flew out the door. Rotag strongly voicin his opinion here.

You be a troll, post nonsensical stuff and look for a reaction. I still say he is now so shamed we won't hear from him/her/it again. This was over the top, even for him/her/it.

TopThrill Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I've done the same thing on Racer this year, rode it ten times in around an hour or hour and a half. DB can give me a headache, when you ride it five to six times in a row. That happen to me on the first Friday night(5-10) of the year, really don't know why.

All I can say is Yay for the group name "Banned" that now shows up next to him/her/it's posts. I'd noticed the forums a lot less argumentative the past week.
