    Ridden Bug Run at Aussie world and couldn't get enough? Cant wait for the coasters at DW and MW to open? Well guess what, you can ride a couple other coasters in Qld this August. First one is Brisbane Thrill festival at Mt Gravatt which will have a Wacky Worm: And then down in Jimboomba Family carnival, the arguably more hilarious shark coaster makes an appearance on the same dates.

    Disney does not have a monopoly on this theme.

    No, Big Dipper is closer than Toutatis: Besides, those gaps are only every few meters between segments, so you would expect a predictable bump-bump-bump...not continuous rattling.

    I thought it was because the trains were a bit light so they rattled more easily. I dont think track gaps are what make things rough, else what about rides like Steel Taipan and Toutatis where the cars are passing a non welded joint at high speed on the track switch?

    Someone get a panning shot of one train parked in the station with the other stacked on the brakes.

    Yeah Wiegand offer them as an option. You can see the strap used to secure it here:

    I've thought about that, but a couple of options: Close Cavell St to traffic, and potentially expand onto that. You could do a few more flats, and potentially a coaster with a fairly linear layout But the visionary option would be to consolidate around the Palais theatre and the surrounding car parks, and turn it into a proper destination, the next Grona Lund basically. A comparison:

    Looks like the slides are from Arihant. https://arihantwaterslides.com/discover-our-rides/

    I'm presuming you want them to paint it at night so they can run the ride during the day? They use a specialised Jotun coating, the stuff is great, but can be easily dinged up if touched while still curing. The consistency is kind of like a starburst chewy lolly when drying. https://www.parkz.com.au/photo/14398-Movie_World_hypercoaster_construction/gallery/sort/oldest/location/dc-rivals-hypercoaster/offset/135 There's no feasible way you could do paint and then have trains running on it the next morning.

    I like how the drop gets steeper part way. Going to be a bit of a lurch if you are towards the top of the turntable and are pulled down.

    Flash merch would sell long term due to Sheldon Cooper IMO.

    As in the old SW Thrillseeker? Is it coming back now?
