You are a billionaire...

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.

-Contract GCI to replicate the Riverview Bobs for the main attraction.
-Relocate SFKK's Greezed Lightnin, restored back to Tidal Wave
-Family wooden roller coaster (side-friction?)

I'll throw in two flats:
-Ameri-Go-Round... restored, of course
-Chance Zipper

...then go from there.

^ There is only one reason I ever liked side friction coasters - because it was fun to watch the cars fly off the track on RCT when I was 12.

Along with those rides I said previously, I'll tell Mandy Moore and Avril Lavigne I'm a billionaire, and get them to come over.

The Premier coasters are just as bad, well at least were. I know most of them had problems opening and had a lot of down time. However, it may have been non launch related. I just know that those coasters are very expensive to operate per launch. Which is why I believe Speed at Nascar Cafe only dispatched every 10-15 mins. It was an ok ride, but I just hated waiting for it.

The Premier launch coasters were all launch problems. The LIM housings were underbuilt causing them to crack and break off the ride due to the forces involved. Also for whatever reason Chiller has more problems than the rest, I have at least one pic on my computer of the lim's on the spike billowing smoke.
