I would've jumped in and stuck up for you but it all happened before my lunchtime check-in.

Hah! You been stalking on Facebook again?
Actually, the below is me (back when I had hair). I also worked on a construction crew that built the Grizzly rollercoaster at Kings Dominion. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pk5n0ZAkgCU"]Kings Dominion: Grizzly / On Ride Front Row POV / August 17, 2014 - YouTube[/ame] An interesting fact. If you watch the video recorded in 2014 at about 3:53 as they are going into the brake shed you'll notice a silver circle midway the beam. That is a flattened aluminum disposable ashtray with a star in the middle that I hung in that spot in 1982. I was amazed when I took my family there in 2002 and rode the "coaster that Dad built" to see it still there. Even more amazing its still there in 2014. Other members of the crew put the same "easter egg" around the coaster on our last construction day. They came from the employee cafeteria back in the day when people still smoked in cafeterias. I have this vision of the maintenance crew thinking this is some type of design element and have for years reproduced it faithfully everytime it falls off.

The course layout would be standard. Participants would have to be at least 45 years old. To maintain consistency, only one car would be used ..... to maintain a uniform platform, only an AT car would be used (and only in auto mode). We would need a track seasoned car ...... but not too prepped ..... just tires. It must be a bright color - to warn observers it's coming Let's see, who has a AT, that is a bright color with some track tires ...... ???? |

Just saw my first hyperblue in person on the way home. Pictures really don't do that color justice, it's beautiful
