A rep from B&M was at Carowinds Coasterstock and said there was no limit on height. I posted it on here the day he said it. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/22261-coaster-stock/page__fromsearch__1

Kings Island or Kings Dominion?
It's something to see how opinions have changed about KD from 10 years ago. If anyone said KD was better 10 years ago they would have been bashed for 3 pages.

Cedar Point to remove Disaster Transport & Space Spiral for B&M Wing
My guess is that they think they have a world class park and a portable piece of junk sitting there didn't fit that description.

Busch Gardens: Mach Tower closed indefinitely
Verbolten was thrilling and it would thrill even more if you didn't already know what it does.

I was there on 6/27 and they had security standing around it all day.

Vortex Hurts Dx
When Flight of Fear had over the shoulder restraints it was like going a round with Mike Tyson. The first time I got on it I had some of the padding stuck to the side of my head when I got off it.

General Son of Beast Discussion
It wasn't just the shuffle there was some jackhammer action after the loop that caused what we called then was brain damage. It was like riding something down the center of a railroad track with no suspension. This was cause by inadequate supports and when you went over a support it was like riding over a railroad tie. It also had random places that would make your spine tingle.

What`s next for Son of Beast?
From what I have heard you are lucky this site is still here. I would guess the mods are so sick of hearing it that they don't care anymore. How do you feel about the park telling you what you can and can't talk about?

Bad Weather+Rides=Good Day @ The Park
Still no power here and probably is not going to be on till 7/6-7/9 from their estimates.

Bad Weather+Rides=Good Day @ The Park
Storms we had here on the east side of Ohio didn't = a good day. I haven't seen this much damage in my 41 years of living here.

Carowinds security will tail you throughout the park most of the day no matter what you have on. I think if you would come to a sudden stop they would run their face halfway up your back side.

Things changed long before 2009. There was a time when there was people at KI that seemed to support this site.

What`s next for Son of Beast?
I don't recall an announcement ever happening on a weekend so I know it will not be on them two days. I agree that somebody will probably be losing a job Wednesday.

What`s next for Son of Beast?
I remember a woman died after suffering a heart attack during her ride on the Top Gun. If I remember correctly she was around 34 and they said she had a history of high blood pressure. Also no one will be pronounced dead in the park and that is why no one dies there.

Parking lot confusion
