new blog

In the blog T&T stated that there was a " suprise" coming..hm. i wonder what it could be.

The same suprise we were supposed to get last Wednesday until they decided not to open Maverick.

I wonder what kind of weather conditions would cause them to change from TTD to MF?

Rain/Wind.

Yes, but wouldn't that cause MF to be down/not available also?

MF does not shut down for rain

^ LOL!! Yes it does.

^ No it doesnt when i went to HalloWeekends this past year i rode it in the pouring down rain like 10 times. in a row

Did it look to anyone else that they were both having some issues with the Dragster belts? ;)

Haha!

Anyway, I've ridden MF in pouring rain...quite fun actually. I might have to mention I was in the very back though. :)

I'm glad they switch the ERT instead of canceling it. <3 *** Edited 5/16/2007 10:06:22 PM UTC by cedarpointlover***

Feels like gettin hit in the face with bb's at 90 mile an hour.

^^ Exactly what it feels like!

My first ride in 2000 on MF was at night, front seat, in the rain. It was the most exilerating first ride on a coaster I can ever remember.

All rides shut down due to weather, but every ride shuts down at different points. TTD shuts down the second a rain drop can be felt. MF I believe waits until it is a hard rain.

^Thanks, I never knew that.

( to get back on topic :) ) maybe they are going to have a new layout for the blog, or somthing new we can download like the "extra point" page.

Maybe they put maverick's secret new track in a "staging area" next to Breakers Express covered with tarp.

I still think it's going to be about what's in Mavericks tunnel. Considering that it looks like the track is beng replaced as we speak....er type, I think the "update" will be about the replacement (photos maybe) and maybe about when Maverick might be reopening.

Just my 2 cents....
