10/21 and 22/06

I got into the park around 5 on Saturday to find the park in complete chaos. The lines for food were about 30 minutes long, and every coaster had its queues filled. So Saturday I went around, took some pictures, and just enjoyed being at the park. I managed to get in a Magnum and three Wicked Twister rides the last 30 minutes the park was open.
On Sunday the park was empty. A lot of rides closed on and off due to wind and rain. Raptor was closed most of the day except the morning. Dragster was having a ton of rollbacks, in the morning, and I saw one in the afternoon. I was lucky enough to have my first rollback on the 2nd train of the day in the front row. Our car was only filled with four people in the first car, and we still didn't make it over, but did the second time. I left early around 5 because I had ridden everything.

Here are some photos from Saturday afternoon and night.

It looked like Dragster only had 4 cars on a train... Why?

Definitely has 5. Count the seats.

I was at the park both days and sat was the worst i seen it since i had been going to Cedar Point. I think the reason for the only 4 people was due to the wind. It was very windy on sunday. I rode it around 9 am and they had the lines open for all cars. But i was watching it and 4 times the car looked like it was going to stop at the top cause of the wind. But it was flying cause i saw it clocked at 125 2 times. They had the maint. crew at the launch area looking at something when i was walking past Top Thrill. You can tell if the park is empty cause if TTD and Force has only 30 min wait times then its very empty.

TTD had quite a few rollbacks on Sunday all due to wind. Most rides stayed open, but Raptor, Demon Drop, Gemini, and Sky Ride were the only ones I saw that closed for weather.

Why does Raptor close in those conditions?

The train won't make it into the mid course brakes if the wind is in the right direction.

If the wind is coming off the bay, it hits the train head on as it enters the mid course and there is a possibility of it stalling. Obviously, light winds won't hurt, but if it gets whipping out there, it'll shut the ride down. Raptor was closed almost the whole weekend when I went in May, I think I got maybe 1 ride on it. Oh well, I made up for it with a Maggie marathon with Candyman and Coastern3rd.

TTD was running with the last 8 seats open for the first few hours of the day, they later added 10, then 12 for the rest of the night.

...And WildCat. The Giant Wheel and Space Spiral both had related weather downtime as well.

I forgot about WildCat, but I saw Giant Wheel running later in the day and I rode Space Spiral. When did they close?

They opened in closed throughout the day... Every time I was over there, it was only one or the other that was open, if either was, at the time.
