Raptor troubles?

IMO the worst two coasters to have to e-vac on would be MF and Raptor. Both have questionable, at best, methods of getting people off of the ride. I mean jumping into some sort of gas powered moving floor or steping over a small gap off of a train that is at such an angle into a "catch car." WOW - I think i would be ruined up there. However, that may be because I also have a fear of heights. On the other hand, walking down maggie would be exciting!!

Man that would stink to be at the park yesterday.

"I say a little prayer to myself on every lift hill that goes like this: "Dear God, just let this thing go over the hill".

That's kinda wierd...I say the exact same prayer. No joke.

^Yet I say exact opposite on Dragster. :)

When did Raptor have two trains on the lift hill? No fair, I wanna see!

It would have been hell if two coasters where down? lol

You guys are spoiled. In the early days all we had to ride was Gemini, Corkscrew, Blue Streak and CCMR and we enjoyed it then!

I had an awesome time with both being down. There are a lot of other things to do instead.

Wait a minute. You mean there are other rides at Cedar Point?!

Who else knows about this?!!

;)

Raptor went down again this evening with a walkdown. I left around 6:30 pm and it was still down, empty train on the lift.

Not sure what is going on, or if it'll be back up tomorrow.

They finally got it going again about 10-15 minutes before the park closed. Looked like they kept the line open until at least 8:10 or so.

That's actually really good to hear. I thought it was going to be a somewhat extended downtime after the way it went down.

I rode it in the afternoon and had no problem with it. I'm kinda glad I didn't because I was in the far left seat when I did get to ride it... ;)
