Captain Nemo Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Three 90* angles!!! This is one awsome ride. Your so lucky LR, to live so close. Quote
TheKlockster Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 He doesn't live that close - he is like an hour and 20 minutes away. Well an hour if you drive like him. Legend Riders car has more airtime than any coaster at PKI or Holiday World. I'd take a few rides in his car anyday over Raven! Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I do anyway, take many rides in my car, every day... lol wonder why? okay, so Max is the maXair... lol Anyhow... From HoliBlog Hey, Wayne! (Wayne is the guy in charge of food at Holiday World) Can we come up with a Breakfast Quiche to serve at the new Plymouth Rock Cafe? Dee Ann (the admissions director) came up with the name. Clever girl. again, all from PR Paula, get this, the PR department is Paula [P] and Rachel [R], PR... lol Quote

TheKlockster Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 Only a couple cashiers? They should have more than that! Don't wanna pull a Happy Days! Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Only a couple cashiers? They should have more than that! Don't wanna pull a Happy Days! they go fast... you dont wait on your food... a few as in like 6 i think... Quote

TheKlockster Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Thats so cool! I wish PKI would put a faded park map as the background graphic in their promotional materials! Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 Thats so cool! I wish PKI would put a faded park map as the background graphic in their promotional materials! butthead anyhow, the new buzz is the tree line being cleared for Plymouth Rock Cafe, yeah you heard right, PLymough Rock meets "Hard Rock Cafe" but not really, Im for sure this will not have HRC Food... The Trees are gone, Im sad, Trees are nice, it will be interesting though, the employees will be right in eyeshot of guests I see... Quote
UncleHenry Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 OMG... I stumbled into an... ACER FIGHT!!! Quote
TheKlockster Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 Youre a bigger ACER than me. What is your coaster count? Yeah mine is only 28. What do you have like 150 something??? Huh? And I do not have a membership card. Legend Rider does. I hope Holiday World adds a big steel coaster sometime. Like a good Vekoma or Gerstlauer or Mauer-Söhne. Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 Look, Station being built! No Trees on far side of the lift... Quote
TheKlockster Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 That is where they are going to put the Giant Frisbee. Quote

And I do not have a membership card. Legend Rider does. I hope Holiday World adds a big steel coaster sometime. Like a good Vekoma or Gerstlauer or Mauer-Söhne. My coaster count is 61, get it right! And I'm not the one who goes and takes pictures of Vortex from backlot areas at every possible moment. Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 why bicker, UH, if Klockster wants to do so in his free time, let him, I dont criticize you for any of the stuff you do. Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 I dont criticize you for any of the stuff you do. ahahahahahaha yeah right... Quote
TheKlockster Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 Hey I take pictures of all the rides - but especially Vortex! And there is nothing wrong with admiring the best ride in the universe! And someone that works at PKI has a count of like 150. Maybe its Sparky. Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 Maybe its Sparky. maybe so, his picture album somewhere kinda hints at it... and CS89, I musy chortle with you... okay, bust a gut laughing... Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Transfer Table, Station... the Load floor is now being constructed!! Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 The Rafters are being set now... Hooray for Rafters!! Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I cant wait till May 6th, my friend and I may be making a trip to Holiday World for Voyage's opening, this is gonna be a good ride probably not as good as The Beast though Quote

flightoffear1996 Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I think just about every wooden roller coaster is better than the Beast I mean how can going on straight track be so much fun??? Quote

UncleHenry Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I think just about every wooden roller coaster is better than the Beast I mean how can going on straight track be so much fun??? That piece of track being referenced here was a neccessary piece of track when it first opened. In the late 70's, brakes weren't as efficient, so they needed longer brake sections to slow it down. With improved technology, the section needed to slow the ride down is less. Quote
screamingnight Posted December 22, 2005 Author Posted December 22, 2005 i cant wait till next year Quote
SkootersFan Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I think just about every wooden roller coaster is better than the Beast I mean how can going on straight track be so much fun???

The FOF path could have easily gone under the bunnyhop, no need for it to be straight. Quote

The FOF path could have easily gone under the bunnyhop, no need for it to be straight. Considering I barely even went to PKI when Racer's brakes were lengthened... But I assume they thought there wouldn't be enough room. Heck even look at the ride! It takes awhile at the end of the ride for there to be brakes. Oh yeah, we have decreased efficiency over time... Quote
Legend Rider Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 The Voyage again is said to require a short braking strip, but it comes in pretty quick, at 40 MPH it will be hitting brakes pretty fast, Hold on tight, you'll get some serious Negative Linear G's. Then again, you already feel it on Raven, and especially on Legend... I wonder why they did that, except for the fact that Ravn/Legend weren't made for 2 trains... lol Quote
