sfmmrules! Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Is the Spongebob coaster a launch? That would be cool if it were a launch. Where does it start - not by going up the hill I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christianscoasters Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Uh-oh. I hope nothing's wrong (look at the MCBR) but it's a new ride. you gotta expect some problems. EDIT: The car is just now ending its course if you look at the brake run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Cool! I cant wait to see real pictures of it running! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Nicky Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Yay, at least we know it doesn't rollback anywhere during the course. It also looks like the train has some great speed during the helix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastercrazed49 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Looks good. Now they just need to finish the scenery, which is far coming out well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I really want to know how much speed it has through the layout. Ill be dissapointed if its slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 The park looks packed today. (from the webcams) It's great that they've kept the place open during this transition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vffreak07 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 It's testing again! I'll get pics up after it's completed a course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Yay for a Eurofighter slightly closer to me than Dollywood! We'll get one on the west coast sooner or later... I hope. (C'mon Knott's... hit us with some 95 degree droppage) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kraken613 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Those trains look pretty good. Still dont seem to fit in that well to me! Cant wait to see video of it testing though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFjunkie2010 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 ^The trains do look very out of place on this ride indeed I'm excited to see this ride in action. With the future theming on the way, this can be a great ride for such a small park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knottslover77 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 The ride looks good. I still can't belive how they fit it in thier. --Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeist04 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Looking at the footprint of this coaster, there's no way a park can use the excuse of limited space for not building a coaster. By the way, the ride and cars look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Nicky Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 It looks like they did a mid-course brake stop. Stopped on the midcourse brake area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
