have to agree about steel eel [approve] front gives great floater, and the back gives some intense moments of ejector. ride texas giant near the front for your first time, then head for the back row of the back car. it's the best seat. the airtime on the first drop is unreal and unlike anything i ha...

I'm pretty sure they will be adding new structure to it. If you look at :42, you can see one of the metal beam/ledgers sticking far out of the present structure, so they will be most likely add to it. I mean, just imagine how many G's you would be pulling coming out of that overbanked turn, like slo...

maybe they're going to add trims to the second hill and remove the brake run from the first drop, so you still hit 90 m.p.h. even on rcdb it says it goes 90 m.p.h. when it used to say 79.5.

if you look at the picture of the supports, it looks like the support type on eurofighters, and the track looks like the 3-spined eurofighter track.

my dog goes into our dining room and poops. but his poop blends in with the rug so when you do a quick check to see if anything is there, you cant see anything. then you step in it and either you have to go give your foot a shower, or ice your foot for the big bruise you got from stepping on a 2 mon...

yes, very much worth it, the intimidator is amazing and never has a line longer than about 20 minutes. and all the other rides are great to. and to cool5 saying you want to experience pure togo pain... well the ride seems all smooth on the first hill and on the loop but once you hit that 540 degree ...

i agree. the steel coasters just get higher pitched when they go faster, and it doesnt really even sound like a real steel coaster. thats actually a good idea too to be able to pick your sound for your coaster.

my favorite is the titan's at sfot because, like Chicano3000X said about goliath, it slows down right at the peak of the first drop and gives you the "oh sh*t!" moment.
