Top Thrill Dragster Addition?

Why is everyone looking past the possibility of a TTD addition. I'm talking about something short; similair to Xcelerator at Knotts. The only evidence of this is that the track being held by the Breakers Express is similiar in color for both the supports and track. They could be doing a TTD addition and a completely new ride over in Frontier town in 2007. I'm just throwing an idea out there--this is my first post.

Didn't exactly pick the best topic for your first post. Sorry, no offense, but they're not doing anything to TTD. That's nuts.

Wow.......no comment about this.

Bad idea to make this your first post. There is no possibility of that happening.

First where would all the twisty track go to? TTD is in a tight location.

Also, TTD's capacity is bad enough at 17 seconds.

Finally, some of us enjoy the fact that the ride is so short, it gives your body and mind zero chance to catch up. It allows your adrenaline to be really high even as you're stepping out the train.

I think TTD's perfect, but that could very well just be me.

Come on guys give hime a break. Althought I doubt it will happen, I can see why you could support the theory.

Hoooooooooo boy.

Ahhhh... Ummmmm... I don't even know about jelly. I get hives if I even look at jelly.

Yeah.

Not gonna happen man.

I actually thought of this a few days ago...

I think it would be a really neat idea, but it would never happen.

^Whatever dude, but no they will not add on to TTD.


New Season of 'The Office'. TONIGHT!!!

Even he said the ONLY evidence is the track color.

I like how this is actually a second post copied and pasted from his first.

Think about what you type from now on. You can spell so I officially accept you. At least if your next post isn't saying it could be a 500 foot coaster or something.

I kind of agree with CoasterDevil on the give him a break thing. It takes about a week of lurking and/or small posts to figure out what kind of thing is accepted here on Po!ntbuzz. Until then Cameron, I would avoid putting myself in the spotlight.

EDIT: I obviously need to go learn Pointbuzz markup... *** Edited 6/18/2006 4:33:56 AM UTC by CP Tay Tay***


Summer was made for a Cedar Point day~

Oddly enough, when the new supports showed up I was wondering how long it would take for someone to suggest this again. I thought it might take a week. Evidently I underestimated the imagination of the young enthusiast...

CP_Bound, Probably can remove the "young" part from the last line. A lot of enthusiasts never actually "grow up":)

I suppose you are right. Perhaps I should have used the word naive instead.

Ya I am 21 around here so anyways nice try on a first post but your a little short of the 420' mark...

I knew I would get some critisism on this issue. Logically, this won't happen for a number of reasons. The track by the Breaker's is curved too tightly to support a train moving at 120+ mph. Also, the thin stripe of paint that the wheels run on is a darker red on this new track, compared to the white on Dragster's track. I should have looked at this closer before posting. I guess I was just thinking of a way The Point could market Dragster to it's advantage versus a very similiar ride in New Jersey.

The main reason you are getting flak on this post is because everyone knows the track is REALLY for adding on to Millennium Force. And then every ride in the park is being painted red and beige just because it looks cool;)

Adding on to ttd would be a dumb idea.

Closed topic.
