As of this morning it was decided J2 would be closed for 2-3 weeks.

And that big news I was talking about is very good news.

It was set up for failure, I know.

Thats ok. I blame Chuck

Thanks for keeping us posted Medusa32. Much appreciated!

Just to clear some things up there were no accidents or problems with the train. We are just trying to make the ride smoother. It was getting really rough and we had to do something about it in certain spots.

Re-Tracking?

No they will just smooth out the track that is already on the ride. All the work is being done by the J2 mechanics. They did a pretty good job smoothing out the helix earlier this year so they should make the ride a lot better.

WadeJ · « **Reply #232 on:** July 14, 2007, 10:20:02 AM »

Thats a shame they have to do that so much on such a new ride. But my back is now glad they happen to shut it down for work right before we were going there lol.

Thanks again for the update. We WILL get there lol

I am really mad at what might happen to the ride. MAKE SURE YOU GUYS COME THIS YEAR!!! Before the park tries to stop the ride from needing so much work...

Thats what happens when you buy a Lemon from S&S.

Medusa32 · « **Reply #235 on:** July 14, 2007, 11:01:39 PM »

I keep suggesting that we have intamin make pre-fab track for the whole thing...

Avalanche in the Dells was having some "track" issues this off season too, and they re-profiled one of the turns... I'm hearing now that the ending of the ride isn't so severe and the hills are more "floating" air time than "kick you out of your seat" air time. So we aren't the only S&S Wood with problems. They were both very poorly designed.

I'm guessing they are thinking of adding trims to it

ugh.......

I told them if they do it I am gonna either rip them out myself or quit in protest

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #238 on:** July 15, 2007, 12:34:39 AM »

It would certainly be a shame if they did that... I wonder where they'd go if they got installed??? I'm guessing they'd go right before the headchopping drop into the helix since that's the only flat section of track on the entire coaster.

I'm sure Intamin pre-feb track would be good for the ride, (less maint) but that would really take some intensity away from the ride, and be much more costly to actually "convert" it to the new track.

PcMan · « **Reply #239 on:** July 15, 2007, 10:37:41 AM »

No trims please no trims

everyone has to ride this coaster before it ever happens
Medusa what parts of the coaster are they working on ?

Medusa with the "Big news"

coming will I be wanting to get a Season Pass next year or not ?

Coney Island Cyclone has no trims

Here is some great Ariel pics of J2 from flyinphilsphotos.com

Bubba Z · « **Reply #247 on:** July 29, 2007, 05:40:32 PM »

^Me, I never asked ? Does that mean everyone is now going tomorrow night?

WadeJ · « **Reply #248 on:** July 29, 2007, 05:44:57 PM »

crap, sorry about that.... It was Rob that asked

I'll have to check on my schedule for tomorrow. I might be free if we get some definate word on J2.

Medusa32 · « **Reply #249 on:** July 29, 2007, 06:48:58 PM »

J2 has not reopened yet! All that is left to do is an excelorometor test which should be either mon or tues. I will let everyone know when it opens.

If you called today nobody picked up the phone because the park is closed due to the weather.
