| Awesome job dude! The park looks like alot of fun. I would like a mall with an amusement park in it around me. Coasters the entire year through- you can't beat that! |

| Nice article, I can't wait to go check out the Eurofighter when it opens (I live about 10 minutes from the mall) and I'll make sure to let you guys know how it is. Everything looks like it's coming along great so far. |

Looks like Casey covered that very well! I'll have to go down there sometime near opening to get some pics. A POV will definitely come later on, before it gets too rough.
Do I hear dibs from TCon? |

| No. Believe it or not it was designed by someone that knows what they're doing. |

I would imagine that would be taken at a relatively slow speed though ... imagine the yank and bank and ear/head pounding that would have at like 25 MPH or more.

| I'm actually driving down there today. Hopefully I can sneak my mom's camera to get good pictures, but if I can't I'll resolve to my phone's camera, which means death to all! |

Yeah I just got back from a 6 hour visit! I think I went on Timberland Twister over 15 times, just for the air pop exiting the MCBR [88] By the way, if any of you visit, make sure to hit all the Asians stops in the top level's food court/balcony to the park! Favorite teriyaki on the planet...
It was so incredible to basque in the presence of a Euro-Fighter...It's like falling in love with someone on-line and meeting them for the first time. |

I had an experience like that once. Stopped way short of "love," though. Unfortunately, she turned out to be a psychopathic bisexual vegetarian who wanted to blow up her ex-boyfriend's car, was convinced that tally-wacker Cheney is a robot, and had a history of killing people in car accidents.
On the plus side, the "date" with her was the impetus for my now-wife and I to start dating, so I guess homicidal maniacs have some use. Maybe after your disappointing first run on a Eurofighter, you'll realize the greatness that is the Pepsi Ripsaw, only feet away from you all along. ;) |

You're such a deep man, SD.
I actually like the Ripsaw, though. I grew up with it, and the helices are more powerful than people make them out to be. Especially the first one. And the ride is so well paced, yet gentle. It's scenic and soars through the park at perfect speeds.
