Strength in B&M track.

Hey now! I'm not THAT young, and that's TOO, mister!

I've read that Kingda Ka's train Shakes a lot at the end of the launch, does that have to do with the Catch-Car? Or just that it's so damn fast?

Also, I've never noticed TTD being shaky or rough during the launch, but I have noticed that the track does shake massivly after the launch, it really sways.

Maybe because Kingda Ka has the upside-down 'V' supports at the end of the launch, the track dosen't sway, and instead the vibration is transferred into the train and thats why it's so shaky... especially in the back I've heard it's very shaky.

Also, I think track does carry vibrations because on a few rides I've seen, like Skyrider @ Wonderland, the catwalks shake and rattle from the vibration of the train and whatnot.

Also, when Dragster flies into the brakes, the vibrations carry all the way down the track into the catwalks at the end near the queue.

Did somebody say "weiner"?

Hi Grady,

Yup, "going to hell in a handbasket" was a phrase used many times at JCI...just before they laid off another 500 here in Holland, including me.

Jeff Sorry,

I shouldnt have been such a dick. I just made myself look like a big idiot. Can you plz unban my ip from this website? I'll never post a stupid post again. I promise.

I vote to keep the ban in place.

I second that.

My bologna has a first name - its O-S-C-A-R
My bologna has a sec-ond name - its M-E-Y-E-R

Oh yeah, and bologna can be formed into a - you guessed it- weiner.

Good, I don't get banned.

Free speech doesnt' exist in a dictatorship. Since Jeff and Walt own this site (and derivatively the boards) they are the dictators. If they want to limit a form of speech (like swearing, or being a tool) then they have every right as the owners to do so. If you can't follow those, then as the pointy faced chick from TV would say -- "You ARE...the Weakest Link. Goodbye".

Jeff how long am i going to be baned for? Plz say not forever. When did I ever say anything about a wierner and whats with that? *** Edited 6/14/2006 3:19:31 PM UTC by cedarpointrocks2***

To be fair, a perusal through his posting history would be helpful. But, since the user does not exist...

Thirded.

EDITED for blatant misuse of the triple-U.

I don't think you're helping your cause.

There used to be a time you could call ISP's and report abuse, and they'd do something about it.

It's a shame those days are over.

Iwas calling Jeff retarded I said the ban was.

Here, this should help you with the true definition of "retarded".

Do any of you remember when you would do something bad when you were a kid and your mom would say "Just wait until your father gets home!"?? Yeah, I kind of feel like that's what we're doing. :)

How dare you take it out on an innocent mirror like that.

Somewhere there's a virtual cornfield with a new inhabitant. Remind me never to take it out on this forum.

Heh. :) At least it was a kinda-ugly one.

Only when you're looking at it. ;)
