Thanks for the heads up. My DVR broke last time it was on and I lost it.

Thanks. I already have it on my DVR, but it is great to see it on TV too. Too bad they didn't do the same thing for TTD and MF :(


RIDE ON, and ON and ON and ON and ON and ON...

Dang, just missed it! Oh Well :(

I think if they had done a show on TTD it would be of the same caliber. Just subtract 36 feet and 8 mph and you have the TTD special.

It is interesting though... It takes one year to build the accumulators. That would suck if one those things busted.

It will be aired two more times:

Wednesday, Feb 15th. @ 1:00am

Sunday, Feb 19th. @ 4:00pm

I still laugh at the part when the narrator says: "The basic idea, take Dragsters blueprints and make them bigger!" :)

One of my favorite parts was when they were talking about Cedar Point's other big rides.


"Then, in 2000, Cedar Point opened Millennium Force...." with a video of Millennium.

Then all of a sudden you can hear the woosh of Dragster launching.

Because we all know that CP has never had a problem with Dragster. J/K

Arms Down, that game on the 12th was fun to be at. Especially the part where the Wings decided to make the game fair by spotting the Divelanche a 2 goal lead.

Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled programming.

JUGGA it sucked and spotting goals I really think that the Patrice Brisebois goal was good a blast from the point. and how about Dan Hinote scoring from behind the net. Aebischer stood on his head in that 1st and 2nd period. I will take my loss with pride 3 out of 4 to end the 1st part of the year.

GO AVS GO

And did anyone notice that when the said six flags broke the 100 mph mark they showed a superman flying coaster and six flags MM is just now getting a flying coaster. You would think that they would show the ride that did it.

I would not want to ride a flying coaster that goes 100mph OUCH

Brisebois had a nice goal. Hinotes was lucky. And tell Aebs that games are 60 minutes, not 40. You don't get to win by playing well in 2 out of 3 periods.

I like how they were talking about Superman The Escape at Six Flags Magic Mountain being one of the first coasters to travel over 100 MPH. But they were showing one of the superman flying coasters.

That’s the thing! GADV was more than likely aware of Dragsters problems and the complexity of building such a tall and advanced coaster but went ahead and built KK anyway.

1 am is not "tonight". It's actually morning. I'd have to guess it has already aired at that time and date (1 am THIS morning).
