HOLY JUNK IN THE TRUNK!
by I dont know how many of u been to cedar point (ohio) before but they have the most insane rollercoasters in the country. The coaster in the middle i went on goes down at a 80 degree angle, pretty sick right? Well the new one to the right goes at a 90 degree angle.
.
This one goes 400 feet high, 90 more then the millenium force coaster.
Launch Speed: Approximately 120 mph in four seconds
Drop Speed: Approximately 120 mph
So whose down to take a trip there this summer and ride that beast!?

hahaha, im not really into coasters... i might puke all over you joe...
oh...my... god..
Slashdot had an article on this back in january. it's got links to video of the coaster in motion. i think this is actually a coaster that would make me scared, hahah. that's a good thing!
yes but now its open for bussiness! This thing looks sick, the other one was pretty crazy, but wow
haha that one on the right looks like it's going to fall over
yeah it looks really sloppy
*stares at picture* ... wow, i wanna ride that.
yo wat are those things in the sky? ahhh! attack of the giant mosquitos!
yeah seriously those bugs are bigger than the ones from "men in black"
lol. i see another godzilla movie in the making
aggggggggghhhh! another humongous bug!!!!!!!!!
did they take this picture to scare people away??
i'm all for it. but it'd be cooler if that was wooden. it's be grrrreat.
i love the mosquitos plastered against the screen or the camera. such a great picture.
those things multiply like crazy! at first there were 2, and now there's 7!?
ahhh..why I don't understand
i dont know about you .. but that picture looks like ONE LARGE disney blooper to me.
i think i'd pee my pants if anyone made me ride that. the Jackrabbit at kennywood in pittsburgh scared me....let alone a ride like that.
waait now the picture is dark..this is a little too eerie. first the bugs multiply, and now this.
ohh it one of those live pictures? didnt know that. that thing really looks like a phallic symbol tho...
you're a sicko. come on now, this isn't the little mermaid.
get your mind out of the gutter
It took me until I saw the dark picture to realize it was a live picture. Soo confusing. But then..if it's dark here wouldn't it not be dark yet in Ohio?
hmm i think ohio is in the same time zone as us. probably.
home pages suk when there's no image
dffdfdfddffdfddfffffffffffffffffffff
wow its' really clear right now, and there are no bugs!

lol. not that way...
oh. so ur saying u don't want to change ur shorts?
interesting. ewrawerifoaregifno
That coaster is so fast!! I was just there on Memorial Day, but they were have problems because it was going alittle to fast so we were not able to ride it but it looks like so much FUN!!
you went to ohio for memorial day?
Yeah I went there becuase I only live like 2 1/2 hours away from there.
this is a great home page image...ian: how about making it so our little corner pic can be a web cam view?
the rain drops look cool.
yeah...cool effects
has anyone ever been on the zipper? down at seaside? because no matter what new exciting roller coaster i will ever go on, that ride is still the best ride in the world to me.
OH NO!!! ZIPPER'S SURLY!!!
eep! it disapeared
uh oh... guess they went over the weight limit
oh my, the moon stopped working.
is this park ever open? it's always raining or gloomy
hhaha the camera is soaked right now
that's what i'm sayin'
just beacause its rainy or gloomy doesn't mean its not open. i rember many a day where we went ahead with activities that were obviously meant for sunny days. such as attending the beach.
rain or shine, i'm still not heading to OH. i just wanted a clear pic of the darn coaster
you got one now. me too! i'm trying to figure out how we can easily whisk over there on our way to virginia. its on the way right?
everything's on the way to virginia...stop by the cherry cheesecake factory in cheyenne
the cherry cheesecake factory??? whaaa??? CAKE! i want some caaaaake!!
mmm i haven't made one of those in a while
i completely love cheescake!!!!!!!! i heard that new york had the best but now i feel the need to stop there and test theirs out.
linda's
is a good place to stop?
no, she makes the ny cheesecakes. i used to work at a place that repaired their coolers...used to get free cheesecakes when they couldn't pay their bill.
hahhahah. after that i probably wouldn't fit into the air vents to fix the coolers.
another client we had made the girlscout cookies! ever have one fresh off the conveyor belt?
i'm so upset the next newstory will knock this off the front page. i so enjoy the live picture.
sorry to do it to you, kid
when it happens, you think we can watch the tornado blow through here?
