I strive for one of those sites with copied stats and pictures that gives you those awesome "this site has exceeded it's bandwidth" pages.

That's not funny Peabody, I'm trying to take care of that.

Valpengeist, sorry for getting in late...but I really hope that post was loaded with sarcasm that flew over my head. Otherwise, I have an award I'd like to give you...

Come on man, don't take it personally. I've never even seen your site! Besides, it was a joke!

edit: What are you so worked up about? I just looked at your site....it's hardly one of those crappy dime-a-dozen coaster sites on some terrible hosting service that has a 1 meg bandwidth. Come on! :)

That's great! I love it. good job to whoever made it

Mark W. B.- of course I was being serious. I really don't know why I posted- I thought everyone knew about the CP/PKI deal! That and I started up a new site today: coastergalery.com (Not to be confused with the other cheap site)

;)

You'll be hearing from my attorney shortly. ;) Of course with some of the people's wonderful spelling abilities around here, I'm sure some do type that!

Angelfire is one of those crappy hosting sites. However I have taken what I can do with it and that is what I have so far. More CCity pics soon!!!

No you're not. Ever read the story of the first Gemini astronauts? One of them (maybe Gene Cernan?) was too tall, like by an inch and a half. The night before his physical exam he stayed up jumping up and down on a hard floor as hard as he could. Well, this compressed his spine so much that he barely squeaked by! Why don't you try this? (And get the least heightening shoes you can find!)
BTW, how tall are you? Oh, when did you ride? Early in the day? You should try late at night, because you will be slightly shorter. I bet a few spins on Supreme Scream would help that too!

This is very true, but the way our Physics teacher told us (and the guy who wrote the text book's videos teaching a college class) why you get shorter as the day progresses, and then taller overnight is because your spine goes back to original size as you sleep, reversing the effects of jumping and standing up all day long. So i suggest you sleep standing up before you visit Knotts and ride xcelerator. BTW, only ANY part of your skull need touch the massive head restraints to ride. Basically the ears must be lower than the end of the headrest. They should have added bigger ones to the last row or something like that. It wouldn't obstruct anyone's view and it wouldn't be bad for shorter riders. BTW, never wait till the evening to ride xcelerator. a good chance it will break down all day and u won't get to ride if u wait till 8pm.

I can't wait to travel to CP again :) Looks like it will have good capacity at 1,500 riders per hour.

Top Thrill Dragster, repeat, Top Thrill Dragster. (moonwalks out of post) ...Intamin rules!

Now KBF hasn't released all their camp snoopy 20th anneversary plans, and that rumored flat to replace tumbler and slammer...... And you guys though CP was procrastinating.

It's the worlds first "Strata-Coaster" - so we now know what a 400+ footer is called other than "Oh my God, it's huge!"

Six trains of 16 passengers each...Cool colors for each train, too (Black cherry; Indy green; fluorescent purple; cobalt blue; sunshine yellow; and sunset red)
