Now that I think about it does anyone remember a ride called the "Hilltopper" or the "American Revolution? I don't really miss it, I think I only got on it once or twice.

Now Davy Jones Dinghys might have been a nice ride to try out and I missed that one....

The only time Sky Whirl ever got to me way the day I rode it in the rain with NO raincoat or parka (it was one of the ONLY rides open that day...)

I have to disagree... There was just something about the rush that you get racing toward that loop that the V2 just doesn't duplicate.

Plus it's a different kind of motion, pull versus push... pull ALWAYS generates more force.

I saw that picture but I cannot for the life of me think what mall that was (looks a little like Orland Park, but I can't really tell.)

And if that mall is still open...

That would likely be easy in Santa Clara, but there really haven't been all that many theme changes in Gurnee.

I look at it this way... at least it generates forum posts We might want to try this again but change a few of the rules and see if the results are any different.

I think it's pretty safe to assume that the Edge is the Last Ride Standing

(I'm assuming redfishpaw wanted to hurt fiddler's fling and heal the edge on the last post)

They actually tried that already... That's where "Batman" is located and the reason that the Lobster became the "East River Crawler".

(I have a better idea, how about "The Edge" should get no more "heal" points....seeing that this is supposed to be a battle for "second place"?
