CedarPoint89 · 08-02-2003, 03:20 PM

Im tryin to make a schedual so i can go on all the rides in the park, and ride the rptor and magnum at night im picking the order we go on everything, its hard, i dunno if i can get onto every coaster (plus power tower) in a day, is it possible??

TopThrillJunkie · 08-02-2003, 05:47 PM

holy geeze your goin on wednesday? so am i! yeah i know i was just there but the girl i work with took some vacation time for one week and my only day of is wednesday so we're goin! lol

iAMpaste001 · 08-02-2003, 08:28 PM

I'm assuming that's a 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM day so that's 13 hours of ride time you've got right there. I was there Thursday with my parents for about 8 hours and we got 14 rides in (not all the coasters- double rides on some of them) but that was with me limping around on a fractured foot and really slowing everything down.

I'd say definitely FreeWay stamps for Millennium Force and one other ride, that will cut down on time. Dragster might eat up a lot of time, but maybe if you get in right at 9:30 (or 9:00 if you're a resort guest/Joe Cool member) and get in line you can get it done in a minimal amount of time. Either way, I'm sure you'll ride almost all if not all of the park and be sure to have a lot of fun!

TopThrillJunkie · 08-02-2003, 10:03 PM

man, i got a season pass ive been there like 11 times this year, ive hit almost everything by 1 one day (thats w/o draggy being up) i know the CP routine... ... but i refuse to go on mean streak!!!! man the last time i was on it i got off with... well we're not gunna get into where the pain was... but next time im on it, im wearing a cup!

CedarPoint89 · 08-03-2003, 02:01 AM

im brigin my 8 year old cousin with me, he says hes not scared but you can tell he freaked out, were gonna start him off small, with the blue streak, then put him on corkscrew, after that anythings open game

TopThrillJunkie · 08-03-2003, 10:42 AM

put him on corkscrew? well, i guess hes gotta learn young what pain is.... lol

iAMpaste001 · 08-03-2003, 02:53 PM

Blue Streak looks small but it's intense and rough (painful, even). When I was scared of coasters, I started out on stuff like Mine Ride and Iron Dragon and Wild Cat and that worked great for me...helped me work all the way up to Dragster and still love every ride along the way.

CedarPoint89 · 08-03-2003, 08:20 PM

were figuring out wether we are go ing to Macaroni's or Jonny Rockets for Lunch or dinner, and also what rides to get freeway on, I was thinking the MF and Raptor, also we have a problem, the 8 year old is 53 inches!!!! what do we do, we need to get him on Raptor/Mantis, we gotta put something in his shoes!!

iAMpaste001 · 08-03-2003, 10:06 PM

First of all, good choices on the FreeWays. Now for the 8 year old: is he 53 inches in shoes or without shoes? If he's only one inch off, they may not notice and check. If he's 53 without the shoes, maybe his normal shoes will add enough height. I checked the rules and they said "normal playshoes that do not contribute excessively to height" and specifically mentioned no platforms. But maybe you can get him some shoes that just have a thick sole? I know my fiancee (IEATPASTE001) used to wear cowboy boots (because they have a little heel) to CP when he was little so he would be tall enough and that seemed to work just fine

CedarPoint89 · 08-03-2003, 10:53 PM

53 in shoes, were gonna buy him some Dr. Scoles foot gel pads and ake him wear 4 pairs of socks

iAMpaste001 · 08-03-2003, 11:10 PM

That just might work...and hopefully it does! I'll ask Paste for any more suggestions and let you know if I hear anything else...

CedarPoint89 · 08-07-2003, 01:51 AM

ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS WOW! Raptor at night, pitch black, its, its, godlike!! oh and Magnum as a last ride!! (we didnt have time to go on dragster that and mean streak/ mine ride we didnt go on) But its cedar point what do you expect other than aperfect day?!?!?! im at peace with the world (oh yeah this was my first time there this year, and dragster is INSANE if only we had enough time!!!)

iAMpaste001 · 08-07-2003, 01:56 AM

Any problems with height requirements? Oh and I'm happy to hear you had a good time!

CedarPoint89 · 08-07-2003, 01:58 AM

oh.. and as soon as i was leaving the park (11:05) we walked by dragster and it busted, the ppl had to get off, the only time the whole day!! its back to its old tricks, and MF broke for 45min when 1 train got stuck on the brakes, then they test ran it and it got stuck on the lift cable
