Future of Steel Venom at Geauga Lake
Wicked twister is a better coaster, but venom has that holding brake on the back spike. It gives an intresting feeling.

Future of Steel Venom at Geauga Lake
The ride has a bent fin from what I hear. The part had to be specially ordered and takes time to make and ship. Hopefully, it will be ready in may.

PKI signs
That will go in the international restraunt.

PKI signs
They should make it like Midway Market at CP

If you were Cedar Fair, what would you do...
Peanuts came to CP in 99, they have been a staple since.

Photo TR: First Time to Cedar Point
Did you enjoy the head chopper on gemini, its still feared by many of people. The only way to ride Blue Streak is at night, it is literaly flying off the track. Finnaly, no wildcat, how can you miss the best wiplash ever!

hanna barbeara movie
Elviras Superstition was by far the best. I like watching it over some of the haunted houses.

James bond License to thrill was good but I am in the true minority, I like Days of Thunder at the FX

First time at PKI
PKD is a nice park, but dont watch Rollercoaster right before you go, its nothing like the park is now. Also KD has an awsome coaster called, Hypersonic XLC the only S&S air launched coaster in north america.

The Beast
Gemini is a Steel Coaster, just look at the track. It just has a wooden frame.

First Trip In Years - 8/20/06
in 97 i waited that whole que for Top Gun, i regreted it. It is very funny when FoF is a walk on and they show the empty ques.

Dorney Park & Wild Water Kingdom
Talon is nice, i love how its right on the midway. Thounderhawk is the greatest airtime producer, especilly in 1:3. Lazers lift is slow, i thought i was going to get stuck. I find the CF color sceme and logos great too, it makes the park.

Official PKIC Trip?
Food if you want to include it. Most restraunts have automatic graditude tacked on for large groups. This idea sounds cool.

FoF on Jones
Kings Island Soda, has a nice ring to it.

what is the new ride for next season?
Not as fast as Magnum though
-
If you were Cedar Fair, what would you do...
CF loves clean midways, i would expect that at KI also. Food prices should come down, CP midway meals average about 7 bucks and includes sandwich and fries. Also expect cleaner bathrooms, at both CP and GL i have often walked in when they are cleaning them. Finnaly, maitence is good for ride related stuff at CF parks, but theming upkeep is not, just look at Disaster Transport.

Darien Lake: Season Pass Holders NOT happy
In 1999 it was, i havent been back since. If they ran that park like Geauga Lake it most likley went down hill. After three years of SF screwing Geauga I drop my SF pass.

TR: Cedar Point & Skyhawk
Since 2003 CP has lost several rides. Schwabinchin, Dodgem 2 (now at Michigans Adventure), and White Water Landing. Yes, CP is a Beautiful park, and one of the best at night. Viacom/CBS has totally trashed PKI's landscaping.

A coaster with the big levers, that is the true classic coaster experience.
