It was going to be a C&M (Cialis and Miler). If it stayed a hyper for over four hours, they'd have to call a doctor.

That would explain why all of the riders were going blind. ;)

The coaster would go into water that goes under a tree. ;)

Actually, the real truth is that the Hyper was supposed to be 218.5' tall and made of wood, with a 214.5' drop, one loop, and one corkscrew. And the name was to be Father of Timbers. *** Edited 5/11/2007 11:47:50 PM UTC by Walt S***

I thought they were getting X-Flight and Steel Venom and Ultra Twister.

I thought they were supposed to get "Shock" (Remember Shockwave being split into 2 coasters?)

That was the greatest non-rumor ever.

The new SLC trains that are supposed to be smoother still wont help that much, reading the trip report about the Gaunlet at Magic Springs people have said they dont make that much difference. And the main problem is the front train has to wait for the rest of the cars catch up and that creates some of the headbanging.

The trains on Gauntlet are no different than any other SLC I have ever been on, and how did find out what most of the roughness is caused by?

The roughness is because the guide whells BANG into the rails instead of the nice gentle spring-loaded action you find on *other*, more expensive inverted coasters.

Gauntlet was NO different that any other SLCs from my POV, excpet for the longer trains. Wonder if they still have those cool signs stating the rear of the train is for "more experienced riders"? That was fun! :)

^LOL! I remember that. Actually I didn't find Gauntlet that rough. Then again I didn't ride in THOSE seats!

All coasters should have those signs. :)

Yeah I called Fiesta Texas and asked them if they ever did any maintance on Rattler and the lady said yes and I complained about how bad it hurts and her excuse was that it was a rough ride. Yeah parks should better advertise that some rides are rough.
