[DBruI will provide you with maximum pleasure.]

^I totally agree with you. A drop tower is usually one of my favorite rides in a park.

Especially if it's an Intamin.

Aside from the drop tower conversation, it looks like Apollo will be getting a new lift motor! At about 10:50 Sunday morning, we noticed some strong vibrations that were even felt through the cement station floor. We called the ride down, maintanance looked at it for 3 hours, and decided to call it closed for the day. There are cranes on site at the moment, and it should be back up in a week or so. (Hopefully)

Just a heads up if you're planning on coming to BG soon

^ Was there today. I was sad to see my #4 coaster sitting idle...

BTW, can you comment or speculate over the location or designer of the proposed BGW drop tower (a.k.a. Der Fallinfast!)

There's no way they build an Intamin drop tower with another one just an hour away, is there?

Stranger things have happened...

How for away from Great White did they build Goliath?

Knott's built Silver Bullet more than a year after SFMM's Batman debuted.

There MUST be an example that doesn't involve a B&M invert.

^SFA built Joker's Jinx 90 minutes away from Flight of Fear, although I highly doubt that many members of the GP even realize it's the same ride.

[CapitalizeI wish they would make Street Fighter Donkey.]

I hope there is a good bit of theming to help differentiate the ride from KD's tower.

[braztazDon't make me kick you in the donkey!]

Does anyone know what's going on with Apollo's Chariot? It's been closed down since Sat/Sunday.

Look back at the last page, and you will find your answer.

I wish I could

Apollo should be up in 5 days. Key word: SHOULD

^It was running today--and very well, I might add.
