Jasper Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 http://www.coaster-net.com/news/1602-industry-legend-ron-toomer-dies/ Truly a sad story. I just heard about it today while I was listening to Monday's In The Loop podcast. He was one of my favorite coaster designers ever and he really inspired me to get into Roller Coasters and some day aspire to be a designer. I also believe he created the single best roller coaster on the face of the earth in Magnum XL-200. His lift chain has taken him to a place no coaster can ever climb, RIP Ron Toomer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcgoble3 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Because it's in the Kings Island forum, not in this one. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=24604 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Vortex, Adventure Express. Related indeed. Straight as an arrow. Or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 As you can probably guess by my avatar, this is very sad news to me indeed. But on the bright side, my KI buddy who died this summer (and loved Vortex as much as I do) finally got to meet his biggest unsung hero up there in the great amusement park in the sky.
