What? No Big Bad Wolf night ERT, oh yeah, I forgot - sorry. At least you got the Pigeon Forge kiddie credits that were both closed last year.

Seriously, Busch Europe never ceases to amaze me at how beautiful it is, and soon I'll be checking out it's Tampa sister for the first time to compare the two.

How was Apollo's Chariot running, it seemed very sluggish and trimmed too much on the 2008 East Coast tour?

East Coast Bash was by far one of the best times I have ever had at a theme park! Thank you to everyone who helped put it together, and to the awesome staff of Kings Dominion for their time and efforts!

Your report pretty much summed it up TPDave. That was more fun than I have ever had in a single day and Intimidator305 is without a doubt the best coaster I have ever been on. Thank you everyone who put this together. I can't wait to go to another TPR event.
