This is the best bit of advertising that Thorpe can do for the ride.

The hundreds of thousands of people who will be coming in the last month alone will give so much word of mouth about this huge new ride, and when the commercials start getting aired on TV, people will be hooked for this ride.

Wow, that looks like that has some serious speed over the hump. And what's up with the double horn? Is that part of the launch alert? Because it seems a bit delayed.

Ass is another word for Donkey!

Cool pictures and video! :cool:
One question, in the video, on the sign it says 0 mph -> 80 mph in 2.3 seconds. Wasn't it 2.5 seconds?

Why do I still have a donkey title???
