I've only been to Silverwood in Idaho and Valleyfair in Minnesota. I also went on the log chute at the Mall of America. Silverwood was pretty fun, the first REAL roller coasters I had ever been on. They have 2 wooden ones and 1 steel inverted one. Valleyfair was awesome!!! I just went in July!!! My favorites were Steel Venom (of course), Excalibur (except I went on that too many times in a row and the G's got pretty bad!!, and the Wave!!! My soccer team was there (USA Cup) and we all went on the Wave twice and I was in the front and it was soooo awesome!!!!
RCT 2! i love that game! (dittto) (try Coaster Maker! you don't need any cash And you are away from the crowd!!!) I guess this is a bad time to say, but if you have a decent internet connection I would Of said to get it off Kazaa like I did........ But I don't want to start talking about kazaa LETS STICK TO COASTERS!!!!!
==> Tex <== I pitty you my friend......
==> Caline <== No coaster Named Wave in Valley Fair... And log shute is not exactly a coaster...
==> Ush <== Drayton Manor Has A few decent rides.... Such as:
SHOCKWAVE!!! that ride is sweet.... I love all standing up coasters, (but inverted or multi-dimensional are my favorit!)
85 km/h 4 FU*KING Gs!!! 4 TIMES YOUR BODY WEIGHT ONTOP OF YOU (which is why they refuse MOST obeese persons on that ride... like the Cobra in La Ronde, If your head is too big, YOU CAN'T GET IN!!!) and 37 meters in height.
Klondik Gold Mine: fairly descent... If you went there before 1994 it was called the Python Looping Coaster.
This Is A Part Of Shockwave:
Nope. (Which is surprising!) When was that? I will check with the news about coasters. Not that i don't beleive you, but whenever you do maintence work the ride is closed. even when they add a car using the switch track they close it and make 4 empty runs with it to see if the rails are all fine and perfectly aligned.
This IS what I herd, not the mechanical worker but other...

Girl Dies on the Raven at Holiday World's Stark Raven Mad Event.
Details are sketchy but it seems that a female enthusiast was killed at Holiday World whilst riding 'The Raven' with a very loose lapbar. Enthusiasts praise small parks like Holiday World and Oakwood for allowing enthusiasts to ride in 'One Click' mode, where the lap bar is not really in use, allowing for extreme airtime. The girl was not in her seat when the train returned to the station. A similar accident occurred on Stampida at Universal Port Aventura, when a rider used 'One Click' and managed to gain an extreme amount of airtime, smashing his head against the support structure above. Although it hasn't been confirmed that this accident is of a similar nature, early reports seem to indicate so.
Enthusiasts have lost one of their own, is it time to think again about the quest for airtime? The next time you get stapled into your seat, be thankful. Below is a photo of Holiday World's much loved 'One Click' rides on their wooden coasters, basically the lap bar is not in use and unable to fulfill its purpose.
Here is the official statement from Holiday World:
"It is with great sorrow that we inform you there was a fatality at Holiday World on Saturday, May 31. A female guest visiting from the East Coast was involved in an accident at The Raven roller coaster shortly before the park closed to the public for the evening. She was not in her seat when the train returned to the station. A doctor who was a guest at the park, plus the parks’ EMTs were on the scene within minutes and performed CPR and other emergency procedures until an ambulance arrived. The woman, whose name has not been released, was transported to the local hospital, where the coroner pronounced her dead. The Koch family and everyone at Holiday World & Splashin' Safari are devastated by this tragedy. Our prayers go out to the family. The park family will be in mourning on Sunday, June 1, and Holiday World & Splashin' Safari will be closed to the public on that day. A private counseling session will be available to all employees at the park at 1:00 pm Sunday. An investigation is underway. This message will be updated as more information becomes available.
Sincerely,
The Koch Family"
