I got my November-December newsletter today, wow that was fast!
Capacity was discussed and they claim with a well trained crew , 35 seconds is all that is needed to dispatch each train. With a ride time around 60 seconds, this interval will easily pull it over the 1000 PPH mark.
I believe if they have 6 people checking restraints this can be done. More importantly, this may mean there will not be a long cooling period for this one.
It's good to hear some more positive feedback about capacity. There was quite a few peeps over at Coasterbuzz that didn't believe in us. Just having ACE mention it gives me even more motivation to make sure we hit 1000 pph.
Only a few more weeks and we'll find out for sure.

Finally got my copy of ACE News (as well as RollerCoaster and my WT shirt) the other day. It made me feel really proud to hear such praise from ACE. I think It'd be kinda sweet if there was a little blurb down the line saying that WT is running as it should be.
I know you'll be around lots Greg. Hopefully at least 72 or 215 times, right? I'm looking forward to having some 'capacity cheerleaders', but I'm willing to bet I'll be the biggest one there. I'm gonna stop at nothing to make sure we can beat it.
But beware, if Pippy has her way I may be on Raptor once we do.

-Rim shot-
I think it can be done as well. I couldn't stand said discussion on CoasterBuzz. So many "experts" out there.
