July 5th and 6th

Im gonna make this quick. The park was pretty busy but it was still a lot of fun. Maverick was amazing along will Millennium. Dragster was a rush as always and i had an awesome ride on Magnum. Ride count:

Maverick: 4 (all front row)

Millennium: 3 (one front row)

Magnum: 2

Gemini: 5

Dragster: 2

Wicked Twister: 2

Raptor: 1 (front row)

Mean Streak: 1 ( front row)

Mantis: 1

Skyhawk: 6

And how long were the wait for those rides?
Im guessing pretty long?

Yes very, both of the dragster rides were under 30 only because we got in line during breakdowns. Both Millennium were about an hour and a half. Two of the Maverick rides were an hour and a half but the other two we used our ERT to ride. Magnum was ridiculous. Only running two trains both days with a wait of 45 min.

Not that bad for a July day.
Or days rather. *** Edited 7/9/2007 12:59:11 AM UTC by Jerreus***

I was there the 6th, and saw maggie's line. I didn't ride it, but I have never seen the line that long at least for magnum.

But here's an interesting story. at night in maxair's line, these two girls told me that in the morning on friday the 6th, raptor "lost a wheel that fell from above the track." They said they were in line for it and saw it from the station. The train was pulling out of the station and this mysterious wheel supposedly fell off. They said they then did test runs on the ride and it was fine all day later. strange, but does this sound true??

I didn't ride Raptor on the 6th, only on the 5th. But on the 5th it was running fine. I have herd a lot of weird things at Cedar Point. While in line for Millennium I was told that the blue train was broke. 5 min later I saw them take it off the transfer track, make a few test runs and start carrying people.

I was there the 4th & 5th. Magnum wait was terrible with only two trains running. Was funny seeing the red train on transfer with two cars missing! :)

This happens every so often on Raptor. It's just a drive tire that pulls the train into the station. The non-inverted rides have gravity helping to hold their drive tires in place. I don't think it poses any kind of real danger. *** Edited 7/9/2007 7:16:40 PM UTC by Ralph Wiggum***

I believe I saw Raptors wheel fall off last summer as well. Made a large noise, and the ops "Strongly" suggested that people leave the platform...

interesting stuff
