Beastfreak Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 I would love for them to add some huge flood lights on the side of racer to light up that white wood at night. That would look cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenageninja Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 I doubt we would see them using fiber optics, that would be to expensive to get damagable effects. I would like to see red and blue lights under racer I bet that would look nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyrfyter Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 if you put the optics up high enough, you won't have to worry about them getting damaged. The other plus is, some of that stuff is a type of light emitting plastic, so its gonna last a really long time. It only takes one light bulb with acolored disc, to color hundreds or strands of optic. Its some pretty tough stuff, and since they are now using it in swimming pools and other places, it must be totally water resistant, and able to take a beating.

Guest theataris Posted February 12, 2003 Share Posted February 12, 2003 If it gets a crease in it, it doesn't work anymore. but they use it for cable, so... The bulbs on the signs in Coney won't be burnt out, they took out all the clears and put in red for Fearfest, so naturally they aren't going to put burnt clears back in.

Beastfreak Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Doesn't mean they won't burn out during the first day they are used. Thus leaving burnt out bulbs for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyrfyter Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 I don't know, I just think that there has to be some better way to provide lighting in Coney Mall, and other areas of the park than just light bulbs. Something that will not burn out as frequently, provide at least some decent light and look good. I think they just need something that will last a little while longer, and not see burned out bulbs all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theataris Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 Coney=Classic, or the past. Lightbulbs are from the past. Not just a fake reminder of what was, but those bulbs are really how it was, walking down the midway, past the virtual reality machines... the last part isn't how it was, but you know what i mean. Past the scrambler, the monster, the games, the bumper cars... and I think anything less then lightbulbs would take away from it. Sure, sometimes it looks outdated and tackey, but... If they cared enough to put in Fiber Optics, they could care enough to replace the bulbs, say, once a week. Some of the midway needs touching up, and some of it needs rethemed, but all in all, it should be largely untouched... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Return_of_Yogi Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 When I think of Old Coney, or Coney Mall, I think of Yesteryear, or the parks Heritage, Coney Island, and I think it should resemble that, You know the old boardwalk parks you see in movies, or in scooby doo cartoons, its part of history, but, if they add a new area behind Racer, include FOF in it, then fiber optics and strobes and stuff would be awesome, like a tommorowland of sorts.

Coasterfan Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 I like Coney how it is besides it needing a paint job that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyrfyter Posted February 14, 2003 Share Posted February 14, 2003 I like that idea, a new PKI area, with a futuristic theme. Tht would be really neat, and provide a new place where PKI could make a coaster that crosses over a major path. That idea with newly themed area, really rocks, and hopefully, PKI will get us a new area soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnterTheVortex Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 A big change would definitely do a make over job for top gun. It has just become pathetic and its really not worth the wait. It still is fun but it just isnt worth it. It must go or do make over job on it, this is just my opinion, anyone agree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnterTheVortex Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 Another thing they need to get rid of ist that pond with the remote control boats. No one is ever using those and it doesn't look very nice anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 The boats are fun top watch, althow they don't really got used alot, its still looks nice, plus its a +1 on PKI's attraction numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coasterfan Posted February 17, 2003 Share Posted February 17, 2003 Keep the boats I like watching people try to use them and find out that they suck at it. Someone always ends up crashing into someone else's boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pki_guy Posted February 17, 2003 Share Posted February 17, 2003 I'm pretty good at using those boats. I can drive them through the tunnel thing in the middle every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
