November 30, 200520 yr Three 90* angles!!! This is one awsome ride. Your so lucky LR, to live so close.
November 30, 200520 yr He doesn't live that close - he is like an hour and 20 minutes away. Well an hour if you drive like him. Legend Riders car has more airtime than any coaster at PKI or Holiday World. I'd take a few rides in his car anyday over Raven!
December 1, 200520 yr I do anyway, take many rides in my car, every day... lol wonder why? okay, so Max is the maXair... lol Anyhow... From HoliBlog Hey, Wayne! (Wayne is the guy in charge of food at Holiday World) Can we come up with a Breakfast Quiche to serve at the new Plymouth Rock Cafe? Dee Ann (the admissions director) came up with the name. Clever girl. again, all from PR Paula, get this, the PR department is Paula [P] and Rachel [R], PR... lol

A cross between a Buffet... and a Buffalo Wild Wings... It will have a couple of Cashiers, but a bunch of servers... you sit... The buffet... will be limited however... LOL go figure...
December 1, 200520 yr Only a couple cashiers? They should have more than that! Don't wanna pull a Happy Days!
December 2, 200520 yr Only a couple cashiers? They should have more than that! Don't wanna pull a Happy Days! they go fast... you dont wait on your food... a few as in like 6 i think...
December 2, 200520 yr Snapper!? YOU DEFY ME!? Voyage OWNS!! did anybody else notice that behind the vord VOYAGE, is a map of the park as of 2005...? so says "Bahari"
December 4, 200520 yr Thats so cool! I wish PKI would put a faded park map as the background graphic in their promotional materials!
December 6, 200520 yr Thats so cool! I wish PKI would put a faded park map as the background graphic in their promotional materials! butthead anyhow, the new buzz is the tree line being cleared for Plymouth Rock Cafe, yeah you heard right, PLymough Rock meets "Hard Rock Cafe" but not really, Im for sure this will not have HRC Food... The Trees are gone, Im sad, Trees are nice, it will be interesting though, the employees will be right in eyeshot of guests I see...
December 6, 200520 yr Youre a bigger ACER than me. What is your coaster count? Yeah mine is only 28. What do you have like 150 something??? Huh? And I do not have a membership card. Legend Rider does. I hope Holiday World adds a big steel coaster sometime. Like a good Vekoma or Gerstlauer or Mauer-Söhne.

Legend Rider does. I hope Holiday World adds a big steel coaster sometime. Like a good Vekoma or Gerstlauer or Mauer-Söhne. My coaster count is 61, get it right! And I'm not the one who goes and takes pictures of Vortex from backlot areas at every possible moment.
December 7, 200520 yr why bicker, UH, if Klockster wants to do so in his free time, let him, I dont criticize you for any of the stuff you do.
December 7, 200520 yr Hey I take pictures of all the rides - but especially Vortex! And there is nothing wrong with admiring the best ride in the universe! And someone that works at PKI has a count of like 150. Maybe its Sparky.
December 8, 200520 yr Maybe its Sparky. maybe so, his picture album somewhere kinda hints at it... and CS89, I musy chortle with you... okay, bust a gut laughing...
December 16, 200520 yr I cant wait till May 6th, my friend and I may be making a trip to Holiday World for Voyage's opening, this is gonna be a good ride probably not as good as The Beast though
December 16, 200520 yr I cant wait till May 6th, my friend and I may be making a trip to Holiday World for Voyage's opening, this is gonna be a good ride probably not as good as The Beast though Oh My Gosh! Give it a ride first, Jeez! Give me a shout before you come, I may visit too...
December 16, 200520 yr I think just about every wooden roller coaster is better than the Beast I mean how can going on straight track be so much fun???
December 16, 200520 yr I think just about every wooden roller coaster is better than the Beast I mean how can going on straight track be so much fun??? Straight Track is better with lots of airtime!!

Merry Christmas
December 22, 200520 yr I think just about every wooden roller coaster is better than the Beast I mean how can going on straight track be so much fun??? That piece of track being referenced here was a neccessary piece of track when it first opened. In the late 70's, brakes weren't as efficient, so they needed longer brake sections to slow it down. With improved technology, the section needed to slow the ride down is less.

The FOF path could have easily gone under the bunnyhop, no need for it to be straight.

The FOF path could have easily gone under the bunnyhop, no need for it to be straight. Considering I barely even went to PKI when Racer's brakes were lengthened... But I assume they thought there wouldn't be enough room. Heck even look at the ride! It takes awhile at the end of the ride for there to be brakes. Oh yeah, we have decreased efficiency over time...
December 23, 200520 yr The Voyage again is said to require a short braking strip, but it comes in pretty quick, at 40 MPH it will be hitting brakes pretty fast, Hold on tight, you'll get some serious Negative Linear G's. Then again, you already feel it on Raven, and especially on Legend... I wonder why they did that, except for the fact that Ravn/Legend weren't made for 2 trains... lol
