RailRider Posted October 7, 2005 Posted October 7, 2005 Santa Clause IN. A little more than 2 hours from cincy. Great small family park with two excellent wooden coasters and I do mean excellent. Check it out next summer. Quote

Legend Rider Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Voyage should be the best woodie ever - but in the end the vote is up to teh ACErs... Voyage = Airtime to spare!! There is at least one vicious Double-Up, and a bundle of Double Downs, PLUS!! A Triple Down!! Quote
TheKlockster Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Santa Clause IN. A little more than 2 hours from cincy. Great small family park with two excellent wooden coasters and I do mean excellent. Check it out next summer. Try 3.5 to 4 hours from Cincinnati. Louisville is 2 hours, and Holiday World is 1.5 to 2 hours west of Louisville. Quote
screamingnight Posted October 10, 2005 Author Posted October 10, 2005 I have got one question. What is the roughest coaster in the world? Quote
Legend Rider Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 I have got one question. What is the roughest coaster in the world? Son of Beast No It would be the Crystal Beach Cyclone, Defunct at least when it comes to wood... Quote
The-Snapper Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 its 3 hours from cincy bc u can speed in indiana bc they dont have police lol and by the way I honestly think El TORO is going to be better bc of the intensity! Quote
Legend Rider Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 and by the way I honestly think El TORO is going to be better bc of the intensity! Intense... Intensity... INTENSITY!? What do you think the Voyage will have? It will be really intense... sure not the height and speed or drop... but whoa, airtime and turns are going to be vicious... Woof! Quote
Legend Rider Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Santa Clause IN. A little more than 2 hours from cincy. Great small family park with two excellent wooden coasters and I do mean excellent. Check it out next summer. Try 3.5 to 4 hours from Cincinnati. Louisville is 2 hours, and Holiday World is 1.5 to 2 hours west of Louisville. 1.25 hr from Louisville, and if you go to Louisville occasionaly, then you know about how far, I drive to the Ville sometimes to go to Kentucky Kingdom, so I know that one.

Gordon Bombay Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Legend Rider eats up Holiday Worlds propaganda like the SS did Hitlers. No one knows what either El Toro or Voyage will be like as far as intensity or air time, NO ONE will know till its built. THey both look good, but no one will know for sure untill 2006. Quote
Legend Rider Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 you can easily make that assumption, however, the on ride and offride footage of voyage is crazy as is, Toro feels like there is something missing... I dont know what though. Quote
Legend Rider Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 small picture I know... but hey, Its that or nothing... LOL I do hope you appreciate the photo Updates, And dont give the the "This is PKI Site" Bullcrap, this is the community forum, I do what I want. Beech Bend Photos coming soon... Quote
TheKlockster Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I probably won't make it to SFGAdv till 2007 or 2008 to ride El Toro. But at least by then Kingda Ka will be fixed! Quote
DeLorean Rider Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 its 3 hours from cincy bc u can speed in indiana bc they dont have police lol and by the way I honestly think El TORO is going to be better bc of the intensity! Im with snapper, im way more excited about el toro than voyage, not that im not excited about the voyage, but el toro looks amazing. These are the Actual directions given by holiday world From Cincinnati, Ohio: Take I-71 south to Louisville, then take Exit 173 and continue on the ramp. Merge onto I-71 south and stay on it for approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes, then take Exit 1 to I-64 west. Continue on I-64 west for approximately 1 hour then take Exit 63. Turn left (south) onto Highway 162 and drive 7 miles until the road comes to a "T." Turn right (west) onto Highway 245, head up the hill, and you'll see Holiday World's parking lots. (Approximate travel time: 3 hours) Now everyone QUIT FIGHTING! Quote
TheKlockster Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I am well aware of how to get there - I have been. And I plan to go once or twice next year. Holiday World is definately one of those parks you gotta hit once a year at least. El toro does look good. The beginning of it looks kind of odd. I think I will like Voyage better because its layout is spread out and goes through the woods and except for the first few hills - is very terrain conforming. But El Toro does look good. Quote
RailRider Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 3 hours of travel time if you go the speed limit. But that is no fun and it takes too long. Quote
LesbiasaurusREX Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Voyage looks amazing!!!!!!!!!! and I agree with Legend Rider, its gonna be a good one, however nothing will ever beat the Screeching Ealge at Americana, have you ever ridden that one Legend Rider? Its an airtime machine! Quote

Its an airtime machine! Hey, LesbiasaurusREX I have not ridden Screechin Eagle, and not many people will be able to, It is very closed... And I really want to ride it, but Im afraid it will be demolished before long. Quote
LesbiasaurusREX Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Yes I know its closed, I rode it MANY times when It was open....I used to work there. Quote
Legend Rider Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I remember reading a post you had about that. Yeah I would love to ride it, but Im afraid it will be gone soon. Quote
LesbiasaurusREX Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 well plans are pending for 2006, if you get me some really good pictures of the screeching ealge i can create a pretty good rct3 recreation from memory but pictures would help, its been a few years. Quote
