this was great. if any one ever noticed this, but the orange train always looks like it going to roll back or get stuck at the top. only the orange train.

Hey CoasterCrazy80: I have noticed that. I'm not sure why though.

I would love to get a feel of being pushed down a lot into the seat. I don't still know what it's like to get on a super fast ride with an intense launch at 1.66g's. Just like being sucked into the seat as the plane gets ready to take off with full of speed?

Hey lol0924: Well I guess you're just going to have to come ride Kingda Ka!

Hey warioware2k5: I actually know what we're getting. Sorry I can't say though. =(

Hey MikelsEvil: Think about this. If Kingda Ka ACTUALLY had more to it, wouldn't it defeat the purpose? The ride is SUPPOSED to be short and intense. That's why Six Flags Great Adventure wanted it. They saw how well Top Thrill Dragster was doing and decided to purchase their own Strata Coaster with an extra twist at the end. It's a business scheme. And if you don't get airtime on the camelback, there must be something wrong with you. I float the entire way over.

Either late this year or early next year the rights to the Busch B&M Dive Machine terminate. Then, I've been hearing tons of rumors that we're getting one. I think it's crazy how we're getting a new coaster every 1-2 years.

Hey..Yeah, I mean, I love it to ofcourse..Its a great ride, but if you REALLY look at it....Wouldnt you want something like...longer?...Lol...Like I said, dont get me wrong, its an awsome ride...But I just wish they could have went with something more original, or atleast could have added a few more hills, or an inversion or two after the airtime hill...Lol..Also, Kingda Ka's "airtime" hill should have been at a steeper incline..maybe we could of actually got some airtime if it was..Lol..:)..
