Greased Lightnin' in Nor Cal a little longer... Th

Incidently they make Dum Dums just down the road from me in Bryan, OH and they store em in a big warehouse on my way to work in Archbold, OH. A couple of years ago it was set on fire by arsonists only a very small portion of the suckers were damaged but they all had to be gotten rid of.

People around here had free suckers for Months!

Weight drops are really weak in comparison to the improved and superior flywheels.

Psst! Don't tell anyone that! We're still trying to get folks over to SFKK this year! :) Not on opening day though :( I figure it'll be all "greased" up and ready by, oh, August. The dueling shuttles is a nice idea, but won't happen.

You said Nagashima before. It is a flywheel. Yes I know there are several shuttles in Japan.

Are they getting two coasters this year or only one?

Exactly, MagnumForce! Vertigo, it's OK, you can quit trying to dig yourself out of that hole for responding to his question wrong. We forgive you....

I was thinking(yes it is very scarey), but if SFGAm was to get it and put in Power Dive's area couldn't they somehow have either intertwine with Batman or just move that bridge out of the way to one of the spikes there, then out a tunnel under the railroad tracks for the other tower. It would be diagnol(SP). Or they could take Scenic railway to built somehow in the middle of Demon. But hey, I can dream can't I?

I think a lot of people in the mid west, who just go to SFGAm and now where alse would love to see the Tidal Wave back in the park, I know I would.

You're thinking in terms of Roller Coaster Tycoon. Things just can't be moved, tunneled, or intertwined with the click of a button.

I'm having a hard time picturing what you're saying. No matter what, thought, you're talking about it either sitting almost entirely over a midwway, or putting it in their major major service corridor. It's not going by Power Dive, and that's pretty much final.

And I'll bet that it's not going anywhere else, either.
