    Roller Coaster TV Programs and Other Related Videos

    I'm really enjoying this programme. I actually like the presenter's enthusiasm and I love all the backstage stuff as well. The science bits become pointless, as Jamesss pointed out they seem to be saying the same thing each time. For someone though who doesn't really understand the engineering...

    Breaking the goon barrier

    Most goony thing I've ever done was join a rollercoaster forum and then meet up with a load of other goons from said forum. :p I've ticked off a few I guess - Florida, gone away solely for creds, spent a weekend riding kiddie creds, asked to be let into a place for free just to ride a kiddie...

    Best Disney Coaster

    From what I've done..... 1. BTMR Paris - I just really like the way it's set out on the lake, it's so pretty. I also think it's a solid family coaster, the ultimate Runaway Train type, and the tunnel is fab. 2. Space Mountain MK - My recent trip made me realise what a WTF coaster this is. The...

    Best Element on an RMC?

    Unoriginal answer but the Zero-G Stall on Wildfire is the best element on any coaster, period.

    Park Opening Times.

    Later opening times personally....for the night rides of course and I always feel a bit more relaxed rocking up later and knowing the park will still be open, as opposed to getting there early morning and then feeling rushed to get everything done before 5-6. I know in theory the opening hours...

    Frank would also be interested in coming along to Ghosterforce and would be a willing driver.

    Definitely want to do Ghosterforce and Port Aventura! Maybe Plopsa/Asterix but it depends on the date. UK ones i'll decide closer to the time but more than likely will go along for Thorpe or Chessie.

    Best part of the chicken.

    Picking the skin off a roast chicken is the best part of cooking a roast dinner. But in general, i'll normally go for breast.

    The TV we watch...

    ^Agreed, i'm really not enjoying this whole "one character per episode" thing that TWD is doing at the moment. I get that they want to focus on character development, but it ends up boring me and feeling like everything is really dragged out. Also not a Negan fan, not sure if they're sticking to...

    Stupid things the GP have said

    On a training course recently, my interesting fact about myself was of course that i'm a enthusiast. The trainer then starts telling me and the group about his trip to Florida, in particular the Incredible Hulk... "Its the tallest and fastest rollercoaster in Florida" "It launches you to 85mph"...

    Your favorite coasters to marathon

    Stealth, Helix and Wildfire all stand out as fun to marathon. Anything smooth, or short and intense is good.

    Promising plots in parks?

    What happened to the area where Thorpe Farm used to be? Is it the same place as Ian has circled in the image above? So much potential for that whole area in general though.

    Olympia-Looping at London's German Christmas Market

    I'm actually really pleased this is coming to the UK, I told a couple of people at work today when they were talking about visiting WW this year and they seemed pretty excited about it. I think it's going to be a hit. Shame it's gonna cost so bloody much to ride!
