LAURA. That woman was amazing at East Coast Bash, she really loves her job! And I can tell why, I'm pretty sure any job that got me into that train a month early would keep be pretty thrilled!

Because Hersheypark doesn't want the paint to get scratched, or else enthusiasses will complain. Oh wait, they will find something else to complain about anyway.

What's the closest enthusiasts have come to being fully satisfied with a coaster?

Youre too generous. I think you mean the holy grail that spills forth the fountain of youth when you tip it over. That sounds a bit more close.

I don't know what you guys are on about, I'm completely satisfied with riding Lightning Racer all day. If I don't hate a coaster, I won't complain and I'll just ride it over and over again.

Is it just me or do the restraints (the larger surface area of the restraint, specifically) and seatbacks on the train look very similar in design to the trains on B&M hypers?

It appears the skyrush pull through test is nearing it's end, and testing may begin next week.
