Dragster's signs?

sf bashing is just a part of loving CP. It's no different than Ohio state/Mich., Cleveland/Pitts., etc. Face it this site is for Cedar Point lovers and we will always defend. Face it, yeah the record is going to be gone, but that can change at any moment. If Mr K doesn't do it before he retires, I'm sure the new CEO will try to make a name for himself (to the CP faithful) by doing something.

How about:

SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY! Are you ready for some speed?!?!
We've got 120mph...
Are you ready to go verticle?!?!
We've got 420 feet...
Are you ready rocket into the Stratasphere on the world's first Strata coaster?!?!
Are you ready for TOP THRILL DRAGSTER?


"Baby I'm ready to go!" Dragster 2004

Well now my picture keychain of me on dragster is all wrong:( it says the tallest and fastest on it.

Maybe it was CP's plan to have TTD no longer be tallest and fastest so you'd have to buy a new keychain.

I say keep all objects refering to Dragster as the tallest and fastest as keepsakes so you can tell future generations "See, this was the FIRST coaster to REALLY break the heigth and speed records and not that other one."

Even though in the future we will probibly have 500 ft coasters...COUGH! COUGH! cedar point COUGH! COUGH! ;)

Please do not refer to anything as being gay. That is not necessary. I am not gay myself, but I have family members whom are.

JuggaLotus, you are assuming that Intamin has made zero amount of improvement since Dragster was made. Maybe Kingda Ka will operate just fine when it opens. If what I have heard is correct, Stormrunner is pretty reliable, even though it's no the same height.

You have to go with the easiest solution here:

Are you ready for the "SECOND" Tallest and Fastest Coaster in the World?

Of course, the "SECOND" would just be a different sounding person with a halfassed edit...lol

Kingda Ka should run the way TTD does now. Though the ride will required a lot of maintenance just like TTD and the other rockets for that matter. CP has been putting all their attention to TTD since it opened and they had many issue in 2003, but in 2004 they finally got it to run properly for them. I'm sure Hersheypark learned a lot from CP and KBF that Rockets can be very sucessful but they need a lot of attention. They've also been able get Storm Runner running well. Xcelerator and Storm Runner are no where near the size of TTD and Kingda Ka making them need more work to run. To sum this up is if Six Flags is able to do keep up with a giant ride that is a maintenance nightmare.

CP will never use the SECOND tallest and fastest coaster slogan, ever. Who would want to ride it, the GP wants to wait 3 hours for a ride that has something special about it. The world's first Strata Coaster, the world's first coaster over 400 feet, the tallest and fastest coaster in the Midwest, the coaster that finally works well, or the coaster that formally looked like a dragster :).

I don't think they would leave it blank. They will probably come up with some sort of phrase or slogan to put there.


We'll miss you MrScott and Pete

Yeah, they're going to put something up or at least center the Dragster logo in the space.

Was the second one a joke? I thought it was funny, but a little unlikely, lol.

They're both a joke. :)

Are you ready for some speed? We've got 120 MPH.
Are you ready to get vertical? We've got 420 feet.
Are you ready for the first Strata-Coaster ever built?
Are you ready for Top Thrill Dragster?


I love Cedar Point!

Have you guys ever been the SF forums?? The BASH CP like no other. The way us CP diehards say stuff is NOTHING.

BTW: I do have family members who are homosexual. So shut the traps. Dont open them before you know the truth.

no, I've never been the SF forums, of course that could make an interesting if not completely stupid halloween costume

*Sorry if I offended any of you with "Stupid" family members, I forgot that life is supposed to be P.C.*

If you get right down to it, it's poor grammar. It's not really the correct descriptive word. A coaster cannot be homosexually attracted to anything nor can it be happy. Poor choice of words is what it is.

JuggaLotus's avatar

or use of a common slang phrase. Just like saying that coaster is dope. Can you roll it up and smoke it? No. How about "MaxAir is da Bomb yo"? Is he implying that MaxAir will blow up? No.

The point is, words take on different meanings when they are used in different contexts. If the homosexual community would get off their soapbox of everyone oweing them something and needing to be "sensitive to their feelings" we'd be a lot better off for it. In fact, if a lot of people would just chill the ____ out we'd all be better off for it.

Also, think of who you are getting mad at? You are upset because someone who you will probably never meet called something "gay" on a message board. I'm Polish, but I don't go ballistic every time someone I don't know tells a Pollock joke. It's called life. Life is not politically correct. That's a fact, and the more people try to make it so, the less it will be so.

Don't call things "retarded." I have an uncle who is handicapped.

Don't call somebody "fat." I have a cousin who is morbidly obese.

Don't call somebody a "moron." I have a 10 year old sister who is mildly retarded.

Don't say to somebody "What, are you blind?" My grandfather was sight impared.

In fact, never say anything at all. If you do you might offend me.
