Title: My Summer Goal
Post by: innervision on January 02, 2006, 12:20:38 AM
My goal this summer is to hit every coaster in Jersey. Anything listed on RCDB as running and in NJ I want to ride. Is anyone willing to take this adventure with me?

you wont get every.  Jack Rabbit is SBNO.. but its still standing, and is therefore a rollercoaster


 :D

Thats why I said listed as operating according to RCDB, obviously I cant ride SBNO coasters.

That's a little bit of a challenge.  Your gonna have to steal some kids.  You have Moreys, Clementon, GADV, Seaside, Atlantic City, Ocean City, Point Pleasant, Keansburg, and I believe that there's one more.

Eh, ill get on the kid ones, ill just act short. It would be awesome to have a group big enough to take over a kid coaster.

Most of the rides left are Dragon wagons so I'm not sure it would be worth it just to credit whore. Then again I do have a five year  old daughter who would love to ride with you

That is one beastly challenge and I would just like to wish you good luck on your journey. Its the summer before I leave for college or else I would go and do it with you. I hope you have fun doing it and accomplish your goal :)

Add *El Toro when the season opens and the list will be 42. Out of the list Im half way there with 21 coasters ridden in NJ

as am i, 21.  I just haven't been to seaside heights and a few of the other shore points.


imagine at one time we had just as many woodies in this state as we do coasters now.  Most of them were in south jersey, and most of those parks are not soccer fields.  Ive played on top of several coaster locations.  haha.

We hit OC probably 10-15 times a year but I will NEVER again go on that thing.  They should pay US to ride it.

Now Gillians City Jet   :cry:   RIP  What a great ride that was.

I really didn't mind that ride, it was just "pointless" almost. It didn't hurt me that much...

I just realized though that I only need 8 credits in NJ... hows that for whoring?? My goal this summer is to get all of the PA credits! :P

I liked RC!  It was pretty forceful, when it was actually opened.

Are you talking about that really odd mouse coaster at OC Playland?  It was ripped out last year but the ride looked like it was going to fall down for years.

I remember seeing crowbars being used to get cars onto the chain.  Lots of scary noises came from this thing to lol

That mouse is pretty fun still, even in it's new home. It's certainly a shame they are tearing down the mouse in Cali that is just like it... "Tree Top Racers" will hopefully be bought by a park, Knoebels seems like a perfect candidate!
