    Hansa Park | Kärnan | Gerstlauer Hyper Coaster

    ^ Yes, judging from the description of the Infinity on Gerstlauers website it is pretty likely that it will be an Infinty coaster. I could imagine that the coaster gets Smiler trains just longer and with lap bars instead of the OTSR. Something like 24-32 people per train, as long as the coaster...

    Hansa Park | Kärnan | Gerstlauer Hyper Coaster

    So this will be the first 200+ coaster for Gerstlauer let´s see if they can get the job done. When the designers working behind the coaster are Stengel Engineering I expect the layout to be really good which is pretty neat and I really hope the "Eurofighter rattle problems" won´t be present on...

    Holiday Park | Sky Scream | Premier Rides Launch Coaster

    Re: Holiday Park | Unknown | Premier Launch Coaster ^Agreed the name is anything but special. I read that "Sky Scream" was just the name of the project but unfortunatly it looks like that it will also be the Coasters name. Theming will be interesting, especially with the limited space. I´m...

    World Cup Brazil 2014

    I will read the Monday Kicker for sure since we have a standing order for Kicker, I just hope that my dad brought it back from work :P.

    World Cup Brazil 2014

    Re: Brazil World Cup 2014 Totally agree with you on Portugal, as good as Ronaldo is, if you can take him out of the game you have a good chance of beating Portugal a lot of the team is just average compared to other countries, especially when you look at the defenders and the goalkeepers. I...

    Holiday Park | Sky Scream | Premier Rides Launch Coaster

    Re: Holiday Park | Unknown | Premier Launch Coaster I read on a plopsa fansite that the coaster is getting a Hollywood-theme and an old corksrew from Superwirbel will be used as the entrance portal. http://plopsafansite.be/Nieuws/2013-12-07/verslag-plopsafanday-2013/ (thanks to koppen who...

    Bizarro to Change Back to Superman: Ride of Steel?

    ^I think they modified them too, all Intamin seatbelts have a consistent length nowadays. The last safety modification on Bizarro was in 2009 when the ride got equipped with the latest Intamin seatbelts.

    Are you cultured?

    I do enjoy some local culture. For example when we (dad,sister,myself) visited Vegas coming from San Francisco we drove through a lot of National Parks (Death Valley,Kings Canyon , Yosemite) and even though I wasn´t happy at first that we took longer routes to visit them but I was really...

    Cable Lift compared to Chainlift

    I checked various sited including rcdb.com and found numbers from 1300-1600 so that´s where the numbers come from. I don´t get why cables are supposed to be a "mechanical nightmare". I´m aware of the problems I305 has had this summer and MF in 2009 but other than that cables have been pretty...

    The year that was 2013

    I wouldn´t say that they weren´t a Cinderella story. After last years mess under Bobby V the Red Sox were doubted and nowhere close of beeing a championship contender, sure a cinderella story is different but few to none expected the sox to win it all before the season started. To argue about...

    The year that was 2013

    Yeah because April 15 to October 30 is 8 months away. Whats your point with the payroll ? The yankees and the phillies have a higher payroll and did not even make the playoffs.
