On May 24 Dragster was running well. It was down for a bit in the afternoon when someone wanted off and it needed reset. Then in the evening it went down about 6 for what looked to be a stuck breakfin on the launch track. It was back up by 7 though.
I'll be Coasting for Kids on June 9th

Not really sure since I had to bolt early... I did see its first Test Run and it made it over well. But I never got to see any public people ride it before I left a little after 10am. The first test train launched around 9:30.

^^You can call her a she, Adam. I was just messin' earlier. :) I can't wait to ride her tomorrow!!!!! I hope it's running well because I haven't seen any trains on the Cleveland cam since Friday. Oh, never mind I just saw one.
Despite the fact that I wasn’t able to get on her due to the excessively long lines and the fact that I was blown away by Maverick, she still ran really well from what I could see all day. I'm not sure about down time but, whatever it was, I'm sure it was small.

There was a half hour breakdown last Thursday (May 24th) about 20 minutes after opening. Stuck brake fin. That's all I know of for that day.

TTD120, are you updating the log you created? I looked at it and it didn't seem to make much sense. Also, do you have the final log from last year somewhere we can look at it?

Of course I am, that's why I made it.:)
What doesnt make sense about it?
And Craig (Gomez) has last years log on his site.

There was some sort of electrical delivery problem affecting the LIM/LSM rides that started about ten after nine. Just missed getting my Maverick ride today, when a train didn't make it out of the tunnel.
WT was back and TTD was just opening when I left for someplace cooler: Maverick was still down.
Any update TTD 120 of your log for this year?

Maverick perhaps? I wanna RIDE ON.
Kind of.....
I put a disclaimer on the bottom noting how the log runs in terms of how I decide what to mark on a day.
And are there any reports today? I know the grid WT, Dragster and Maverick are on went and was later fixed but did Dragster open back up at all?

Ok so I was the first one on Today. waited two hours. till the ride went up.... then I went home and came back.... to my surprise... a ten minute wait how awsome.
::bump:: :)
Any reports for today(monday)?
Im curious to know if she opened at all today. With todays weather how it was, I'd be surprised if she opened up at all. I was only able to catch one train launch at around 6 when the rain stopped.....it was a rollback however.
