Captain Nemo Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Those clips went by so fast I don't know how anyone could see any landmarks to tell what park that is. Obviously they have a ride like Hypersonic XLC but I don't think it is PKD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjkjkj Posted May 14, 2006 Author Share Posted May 14, 2006 i thought at first it was pkd too, but i wanted to see if anybidy here could tell what park it is Thanks ~kjkjkj~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Bombay Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 That ride is Dodonapa, the same type of coaster thats at PKD but it is located ayt Fuji-Q-Highland, the same park building the 4th dimension coaster. I knew it as soon as I saw the clip with the ferris wheel behind it. LINK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamingnight Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 that was the first coaster to go over speeds of 100 mph. It goes 107 mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastersRZ Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Another dead give away that it wasn`t PKD was the fact that they showed footage from a HUSS Giant Frisbee. Naturally, PKI and CP both do not have a S&S Power launched coaster, so that leaves Fugi-Q-Highlands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Eagles 1972-2004 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 that was the first coaster to go over speeds of 100 mph. It goes 107 mph. WRONG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyman Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 actually...no, hes not wrong, in fact, he's just the opposite, hes right! go figure. By WRONG!, you are obviously thinking of Superman, at SFMM. However, by the vast majority of everyone here, that being people that actually know things about theme parks and rides, consider that to be a high speed thrill ride. However, if we were to all agree that it was a rollercoaster, screamingnight also said "over speeds of 100mph." As you should know, Superman goes exactly 100, not over, as said. And if by some chance you were thinking of something else, your still wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Bombay Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 ^Superman isconsidered a coaster by RCDB, it walks like a duck and talks like a duck and uses magnets, just like other shuttle coasters such as Mr. Freeze. Superman at SFMM is in fact a rollercoaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discodude3737 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 It can be argued that Superman does not hit 100 m.p.h. anymore... I have visited SFMM twice, two seasons apart, and it was very obvious that the 15-passenger car was not making it up nearly as high as it used to. I have seen pictures from late 1996-1997 that show the car almost to the top of the tower. It's a fun ride, nevertheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZosoBeast Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 that was the first coaster to go over speeds of 100 mph. It goes 107 mph. WRONG! You think he is wrong, fine and dandy. But how about telling us WHY you think he is wrong. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
