I will mention this as I remember it being brought up when Terminator was announced. I distinctly remember hearing something along the lines of the Mummy being intact for the 2010 coaster. Not sure if this rings any bells, but just thought I would point that out. So if it is a THBS, which I hope it is NOT, we might have cheap cardboard cut outs of Brendon Fraiser instead of Tony Hawk. Oh joy.

I ended mine with a Mamba ride at Worlds of Fun Saturday night, I got my Prowler night ride, which was amazing, but not as great as some of the day runs I had. I still have it in a virtual tie with Voyage, but I plan on riding both again next year! Great season for me though! 3 new parks, got credit number 100, as well as a new number one coaster! Can't wait until 2010!

Prowler on Saturday night! I can't let Racer be my last credit...that was in August! Will be my first Prowler night run.

So ever since about Tuesday, anytime I try and open No Limits, it says not responding. I am running Vista, any suggestions BESIDES getting rid of Vista? I have heard that a lot, I just want a quick fix if possible.

Funny story, my sisters friends run that maze, build it, rent the place out etc. They have a blast doing it. I did Saw last year and it was amazing. I would do it again this year, but I won't be back in Cali until December, still a great thing to do!

If you have a chance, you should swing a little more West and grab the Prowler credit at Worlds of Fun! That ride is worth the extra distance alone!

In the week time difference between my rides, there was a noticeable difference in intensity, hopefully I get to ride this again in the next month or so, I am going through Prowler withdraw!

I rode Prowler 2 weeks ago for the first time, and it is absolutely amazing. I have gotten 5 rides now, and the back row is absolutely amazing. It jumped to my favorite wooden coaster, to my number 2 overall coaster, even though it will probably change come August.

I thought it was going to Laser Snake Horse on Fire in the Dark with neon lights and $8 waters and a strong smell of herbs? When did it change?

I just became the happiest little Transformers nerd on the face of the planet! YAY! If they DARE screw this up, I will unleash 'The Thirteen' on their arses so they NEVER ruin an AMAZING MOVIE AGAIN! If Shia LeBiotch has his voice in it=failure!

I was at the park for a short while yesterday. They have started pouring the cement base for the coaster. No pictures as I left my camera in my car, there is more wood in the corner, tons of it. That's all I really have to report on. The park had a surprising amount of people for noon on a Friday during the school year. Lots of kids were there. I was shocked.

The lift supports were originally the auto supports, no wide structure, no catwalks or railings. From there I eliminated certain areas, which made it have the intamin look to it, and then ever footer that is down i put in by hand. I did have to make one tower of lift supports. All in all the lift supports took approximately 4 hours from start to finish. It took forever, it was the most tedious thing in no limits I have ever done, but it looks amazing, so I will probably do that for the rest of my Intamin hypers/mega's (hint for next coaster maybe?) I still have a few things to work on. More comments/criticism welcome, please be as harsh as you like.

Now I know this is not perfect, but I thought I would release it to get some feedback. The double up double up with lift hill in background diving drop overbank small overbank layout Comments/Criticism greatly appreciated. overhaul.zip

I like the constructive criticism, it helps me out a lot. I have been trying my best to work out all the kinks in wooden coasters, my predominant coaster style, so it helps, so thanks.
