Now and Then

Do you think that MF is going to be as super smooth as it was last year or do you think it's going to have a few "not so smooth" spots? It's amazing what water and ice can do over a few month period. What do you guys think? I think it will still be as smooth as last season, maybe a little bit more since it has had the time to settle over the winter and spring.

*Dude, Where's my car?*

I think the track will still be smooth, but I'm not sure about the trains.

Since it got smoother, faster, and better as last year went on, I think we will see more of the same. Remember the track has already endured one Lake Erie winter before its first test run :)

Superman: ROS at Darien Lake ran decent after its first Buffalo/Rochester winter. If anything, I'm sure CP does an even better job than them at maintaining the trains. Nothing is going to change with the track. Look at CP's other steel coasters - Raptor, Mantis, Gemini, etc. They all still run pretty well after years of being beaten on during the winter. Magnum got a bit rough last year, but hopefully that will be better this year. I think the most noticible wear and tear to the guest is in the way the coaster looks. The paint fades over time and the seagulls like to do their thing on them also - especially Raptor! :) I'm glad that they're painting it and I hope I get there to see it before the seagulls soil it! :)

Jeff, I guess I wasn't really thinking when I was writing that. MF will be as smooth as last year!

i dont think it can get much smoother, thats for sure!

Well has Raptor or Gemini gotten worse over the years (I'm asking)?

Crady Crady!! CRADY CRADY!!

I still think Raptor and Gemini remain the same rides they were when they 1st opened. Its the person's bodies that change over the years..not the rides..lol:)
