As noted in a Text from Dan a few days ago (while I was in Florida

)
PUMA's 2nd hill is now getting work done on it.

I passed by today (Feb 14th) and seen a few workers on the upside of the 2nd hill.
this was the area that was reported last year to be worked on.

I JUST HOPE NO TRIMS ARE ADDED

I was driving someone to work and was running late so no pics.
Maybe tomorrow

Season pass still $49 with the coupon book

Look for an in-depth Article from one of our Gaupdates members (Ielle) Danielle burrows in the
in the March issue of South Jersey Magazine

I'm quoted in the article a few times dating back to 1970 of my experiences growing up in and near the park and the future of the park.
Can be found at Borders and other outlets

PcMan · « **Reply #84 on:** February 19, 2008, 06:39:13 PM »

THE NAME PUMA IS OUT

I heard this from a few reliable sources
I have a great name for the coaster lets name it (drum roll please)

Tsunami

also seen them working today lower on the 2nd hill

Millennium Force 44 · « **Reply #85 on:** February 19, 2008, 06:59:43 PM »

What?! No Puma anymore... why do they keep changing the name?

overlord · « **Reply #86 on:** February 19, 2008, 07:14:28 PM »

Ahhh yess! Back to its original name.

PcMan · « **Reply #87 on:** February 19, 2008, 07:25:48 PM »

Thats what I suggest they name it

but no word yet on what the coaster will be called

this reminds me of the Performer otherwise known as Prince
he changed hi name to a symbol
then now back to Prince, I think $:-\$ ?

I also rode by the Giant billboard on the White Horse pike ( route 30 ) Near the Lindenwold school and they still have the old sign up with the J2 on it. But they never update this sign until springtime ?

GADVwow · « **Reply #88 on:** February 19, 2008, 07:29:03 PM »

Yah, the Prince thing was a dispute with his record company. Once the dispute was over, and the record company gone, so was the silly symbol!

Dubya91 · « **Reply #89 on:** February 19, 2008, 11:48:28 PM »

Im calling it the Wooden Thing in Clementon, no disrespect to it but this name thing is nonsense

PcMan · « **Reply #90 on:** March 03, 2008, 02:09:22 PM »

from screamscape

According to the latest podcast from Coasterdom, Clementon Park has already decided to rename their wooden coaster again before the park could even open for the season (this was reported here first see below). The coaster was known briefly as Tsunami, then J2 and currently still called Puma on the website will now be called Hellcat. They also tell us that the park will start to charge for parking this season. While this also hasn?t been confirmed by the park?s website yet, they say it is expected to be $6.
Assuming the Hellcat name goes through, would this be a record for the most different names a coaster has been called at a single park or has any other coaster gone under more than four different names?

OK Hellcat is better then Puma but Tsunami is still the better name
I live down the road and bought a season pass so i can ride a few times a week
now they will charge for parking
I guess i will have to park at CVS across the street or if they have some kind of parking pass.

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #93 on:** March 03, 2008, 02:20:18 PM »

I know, I'm just messing with you.

PcMan · « **Reply #94 on:** March 03, 2008, 02:25:58 PM »

OK

WIll it be themed after a Cat Like Puma HELLCAT \/ (this is what I think)

or themed after the Hellcat fighter Plane \/

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #95 on:** March 03, 2008, 02:30:47 PM »

I like option A better.

That's actually a hilarious picture...

PcMan · « **Reply #96 on:** March 03, 2008, 02:33:10 PM »

Rob I like your cat better, that would be cool if that was on the front of the trains

I found your cats brother \/ now we know who killed JFK

or if they add any trims it may be running like this hellcat below \/

WadeJ · « **Reply #97 on:** March 03, 2008, 02:39:59 PM »

/\ That is too gentle and smooth of a cat lol

This is getting a little strange. First, we hear they are trying to bring back a Victorian styled midway of times gone by but then go and thrown this name out there for the major coaster?

A traditional wooden coaster name would have been fine like Thunderbolt or get this... Jack Rabbit!

Personally I would have preferred they simply went back with the original name Tsunami.

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #98 on:** March 03, 2008, 02:40:41 PM »

I have this feel thing that trims wont really tame the ride THAT much, unless they are on hard like on Mean Streak's first drop or Raging Bull's 2nd hill... It just depends on where the brakes go, I'm hoping they won't hit until right before the helix, so the 2nd hill stay as intense as it is.

Dubya91 · « **Reply #99 on:** March 03, 2008, 03:39:35 PM »

Im sticking by my Original name..
