Raptor Backwards

Once in line for Raptor I heard somebody say that on Employee Nights they used to run the ride backwards. Is this true?

Did that same person tell you Magnum was sinking?

And I heard in line that 25 people died on Dragster the other day.

Maybe Cedar Fair could rent the Namtab chassis from Six Flags when they're done touring it through their parks... Rotpar! Nolat! Toirtap! Tellub Revlis! I've heard the trains and track are a bit different for the new vest restraints so there will probably be no Eehsnab.

As a former employee, I so wished at one Disaster Transport ride night, they would have had the lights turned on for us, but they never did. (Even in 2012, when it was the last year for the ride.)

Batman and it's fellow clones are some of my favorite rides, ever. However, I rode Batman Backwards and I hated it. Very very disorienting and uncomfortable IMO.

No

Almost certainly not, as I think it needs a modified train.

That said, with a modified train, it would probably be technically possible given that it has been done on the Batclones.

Rode Batman at 6 Flags Great America backwards....made me extremely nauseous.

It does require a modified train. B&M made a modified train which toured the SF parks -- that's why Namtab was only at one park at a time.

You must not have been on the last train of that night ;)

Absolutely loved Batman backwards. We visited every park they ran it at. Extremely intense! I wish cedar fair would give it a try.

To the original post, Employee Nights are basically Platinum or Season Pass Holder events with employee badges instead of passes.

All the same rules apply and no, they don't make any special modifications to the rides. It would take a whole lot of work to be able to do that for a 2 hour or so Employee Ride Night and just wouldn't be worth it.

Don't forget the hastily made themes some crews put together, at least that's unique. ;)

Yeah, it just didn't seem like something you would mis remember
