Not sure, the last few new rides have been different, MF, Maverick and WT opened as assigned seating except for front. Dragster you were able to pick your row. All of the rides mentioned you can now pretty much pick your row right?

WOW! before we can even determine if we like the left or the right side of GK, other parks are already making modifications. First SFGA Batman invert is gonna run backwards for parts of the season now this The Swarm in the UK will turn around the last 2 rows of the train to face backwards. So my fellow point buzzers for the sake of conversation if this method proves to be successful, do you think CP should test this idea for themselves (After a full season of course ) ?

^ I doubt we'll see this at CP any time soon. SF seems keen to continue with this recent "trend" (I'm not quite sure what to call it; business plan, perhaps?) of their's to bring new attractions to market while spending the least amount of money possible (e.g. by doing gimmicky conversions to their existing coasters rather than adding new ones) I'm actually fairly curious to know how this strategy is working out for them, financially speaking. It's pretty smart if they can get away with it.

CF, on the other hand, doesn't seem to be going down that path yet... I think an Iron Horse treatment would be great for GhostRider, though!

So after looking at this picture right here https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/535863_1015125707181146...0357_n.jpg which side do u really want to ride first ?? My vote is definitely for the left side although I hope I can get to right side on opening day as well, the left side looks much more inviting at the moment.

Well... I'm going to ride whichever side has the shortest line first. But I feel like the left side will be the most exciting.

The left side of the train will be for Fast Lane only! ;)

Right, please. I'd rather have my chair go out from under me than be tossed over head first, and the right seems to have more opportunity for that.

I'm thinking that the best ride will be in the outer seat of row 8 on the left side. For obvious reasons, of course!

Looking forward to trying them all though! :)

4 summers of employment in ride operations does stuff to you.
