what the hell? when was this...knotts marketing dept. must be asleep at the switch.

It does look real fun though, and knotts has been lacking in the thrill ride dept. for a bit. I should get back there some time.

Thrill rides kick ass. I love them all!

I like ones that take off like a jet from the very start...no climbing up an incilne & dropping...instead BAM, you just take off!

California Screamin @ california disney....very fun!! *sigh* makes me want to go on vacation & screw work for a couple weeks!

Six Flags Great Adventure over here in NJ is making Kingda Ka, the tallest, fastest coaster on the planet. 456ft, 128mph @ a launch start, opening next year, thats going to be one crazy ride.

hell yea!! i heard about kingda ka all the way over here, i want to go on it soooo bad. oh yea, and amy, if u pan that pic of DCA about 20 more feet, ull see the restaurant i work at, hahahaha.

X at six flags is one of the most unique technologically advanced roller coaster ever. to me its in a different category. but silver bullet is less than 20 minutes away, so that gives it more points. hehe

I use to go to Great America all the time in Santa Clara California! The roller coaster "the stealth" was pretty fun & different, it lays you back in ur seat & at one point flips u over to wear it feels like ur flyin like super man haha
