Well... so much for early closes in the back of the park.

Can't wait to see Dragster running on a daily basis- wonder what kind of lines she's gonna get?

At a capacity of 1500..... looong

------------------
Remember, "Being fat can even ruin a romantic cruise"

1500, if achieved, would smack the pants off of what MF gets for capacity! Of course, MF was supposed to get 1600, but I think 1100-1200 is closer to the truth. I'm hoping that the new ride will give Magnum some riders for the first half hour of the day when we used to send half empty trains. I definitely expect it to hold people toward the back of the park more so than they have for the past few seasons.

What I'm seeing is that the ride has 6 cars, but the ride looks like it lasts under a minute. How does that work?

Under a minute? Try about 15-20 seconds.

Jeff has explained in other threads that there will be a train moving to the launch, two trains being loaded/unloaded simultaneously, a train on the brakes, a train on the course (is that 5?) and I am assuming 1 train will be in transition somewhere.

Man, MF looks like a children's coaster compared to the size of this thing! Lordy, I hope I don't end up test-riding this thing 14 times in a row like MF :-/ Ah, but I love it, of course.

"Am I still in Cedar Point?"

Yeah!! I hope I am not one of the fortunate ones who has to test it out either!!! I love coasters, but I don't think I can handle this one!!! Too high for me!!!
