You know you're having a good day when you're looking at the green side of the grass and not the otherside.

No Problem KA! Thank you Jeff for having a sight where the idiots cannot post for long. Also a BIG THANKS to the moderators.

Just FYI, I've been watching the Cleveland cam and I just saw two rollbacks in a row. Both times it made it right to the crest and paused for a good 5 seconds before rolling back.

I don't usually watch the webcams but watching the cleveland cam for a few minutes is sort of interesting. The Main Midway looks more like a road right now. Every 30 seconds or so you see a van or car pass by. That would be fun to drive your car through the park. You could get to Raptor to Mean Streak in no time!

Yea, Out of the 6 or 7 launches only 2 made it over. They seem to be controlled rollbacks, With every launch they get higher until it makes it over. Just fine tuning it. On another note, Most of the rides are now testing. MF has been running laps, So has Mantis and ID.

when was the last time TTD launched? I have just been looking at the cleveland cam every once in awhile but havent seen any. how far apart are launches? thanks

It just launched. Made it over the tophat with plenty of speed, can't wait 'till this summer!

It is quite fun to drive (or I should say ride, I wasn't actually behind the wheel) in a car around the point. Makes it seem a lot smaller when you can get to from the front to the back in about 2 minutes.

LaTTDRIDER, TTD is definately worth getting excited about. I was on one rol back last season (see my signature). The rollback was really cool, definately the best ride I've ever had on TTD.

It's been testing lately. I just saw three go off in fifteen minutes. Two made it over and one rolled back. I can't wait. 14 days for me!

I'm still waiting to see it launch and catch it launch for the first time. I have a question though. Why is there still one train outside the station? Are they fixing that one or is it for display purposes?

Well I just looked this morning on the webcam and just noticed that they put that last train on. I swear yesterday I still saw that other one outside the station.

Think they took the train to take it apart, Those 2 or 3 cars from the red train have not moved since they took them off the track last year.

If that's the case I hope its not something too serious. Maybe a handlebar restraint or something.

I was at the park today and i don't know if that was a dragster car of a MF car. Draster seems to be totally on and ready to go, however on MF the red train just has two cars on. Blue and yellow have those water people but like i said red in still incomplete.

I went to get my season pass today. And just before I left the park, I turned around to look at Millennium Force and I noticed a train headed up the hill. So, I stopped and watched the coaster go down the hill and out of the blue, Dragster launches a train up the tower....but doesn't make it over. It was kinda cold today, so I think thats why it didn't make it over. But on it's second launch, it made it over without any problem. Then they launched again but it didn't make it over and they didn't launch anymore after that. So as of right now it's hard to tell if they got all the bugs worked out of it.

Most of the rollbacks look planned, They all go up same hieght and rollback 2 tiems before making it over. Today it looked like they were doing 1 rollback and 1 over. Most likely just fine tuning it. They did have 1 misfire today, I happened to catch the train going up half way up the tower and then back down.
