Okay, I understand common courtesy. But I don't like feeling like I've been talked down too, when I know. Now, I wouldn't have to post that, if I wasn't just talked to that way.

Not that its a huge deal or anything but we prefer to keep such info off the boards.  Thats all :).   And yes, we/I could have simply hacked your post instead but we also prefer to keep a open forum with little to no censorship.  Although I realize you were being sarcastic, the "leave it to Six Flags to send nobody" comment is what I was ticked about since that wasn't the case at all.  Although your writing style and sarcasm is what I like most about your reports so please don't stop LOL

I missed the Six Flags girls it just wasn't the same Eastcoaster without them  :'(
OK back to
 Eastcoaster 2007 Discussion
how bout those bears LOL.

I talked with Tom Ribbi and As we all know J2 coaster trains are to stay one train operation.
When I asked what was up with the single train Tom Ribbi told me Larry Baker wants one train in rehab every other year. At least the Lines when I go aren't to long.
Also Tom Ribbi went skiing that morning before going to Eastcoaster (he loves skiing) as do I.

Also as we already know The Lake Compounce Wildcat now has Magnetic brakes so it will now run a 2 train operation.

^ It's exactly why they only run one train, not enough guest and less wear and tear on the track and trains. Which equals saved money for repairs they don't have in the first place.

Trims on J2  ?
I didn't ask or I didn't know of any that would be added.
Was there talk of adding trims  ?
I hope not  :o

Yeah, towards the end of last season.  There is a member on Coasterbuzz that works for CLP.  I think his screen name is jswiga or something close to that.  Anyway, I recall him mentioning the possibility last fall.  They keep fixing the ride up only to have it destroy itself again.  As much as I love J2, I firmly believe that S&S sold them a lemon.

It sure is a wild ride.
Did he mention where the trims would go  ?
I would think b4 the helix ?

So a reason for me to get out and ride early this year.

Trims on J2?  I think I have somewhere to whisk Raquyyah away to for "no reason" this summer, lol.  There and Knoebels again. :)

^quick ... Bubba copies and pastes RJ's girlfriends name before he searches the Internet  again for 20mins. ;)

I like when J2 leaves the station and makes the horrific sound as it catches the lift chain.

I got ya. I'm sorry about that. I really was just making a joke about them not showing up. Because this past season, they had some screw ups, so iw as just making a joke at that. Though i understand the real reason, and I simpithize on that! So lets call it truce.
