I305 is seriously the most "intense" coaster. The airtime is amazing. The g's... Are Great.

Front row rides are required!

[KenB]

^ Yeah, that seems to be the general consensus that it's a front seat coaster. Too bad it's not something a bit more obscure, like row 4 on Intimidator here. Then it'd be easier to grab a seat when everyone else is heading to the front or back. Of course with assigned seating, I guess that's a moot point. They're doing that on 305 as well, aren't they?

Yeah, he's a tool. You should see the nasty message he sent via email! This is just an excerpt...

"If you prefer to have your account deactivated because you are incapable of acting like an adult, let me know."

How ironic he's questioning my adulthood...

Anyway, I'm really curious about 305. I may try to drive up wed. I'm not all that thrilled about blacking out since I have never on a coaster before but I'm more interested in the airtime!

Who knows, I may actually see the difference between the stickers!

You better watch our Ken, or else you might be considered "a threat to his business and family".

Ahahahaha. That still cracks me up when I think about it. Jonathan, I wonder if you wanted to join the new TPR club that requires you to pay for a membership if he would let you be a member since you would be paying him money. Isn't your money just as good as anyone elses?

Sorry about the TPR cult hatin' on you, Jarvis. It's too bad you can't post the entire email over on that site so the folks there can see what's going on--but I'm sure it would be deleted or doctored to put said cult leader in the best light possible.

So folks are blacking out on this thing? How many Gs is this thing pulling? For that matter, how many Gs does MF pull? I don't think I've ever blacked out on a coaster, but I guess there's a first time for everything.

Is it legal to have a lot of people blacking out on a coaster? I know the government has a limit for the amount of G's a coaster can have, so I'd think that the blacking out level might be a little much. And if the coaster has over the legal amount of G's or the park gets sued by someone because they blacked out, what can KD do about it? How can you lower the G's for the first drop? I hope they wouldn't have to do that though. Course, if people have to be dragged off the ride because they were knocked out, I might change my opinion!

[Jonathan]

There are plenty of coasters that can cause people to black out. I have no idea how many Gs I-305 pulls in that turn, but I know that I have came close to blacking out during the batwing on Afterburn once and near the end of Tennessee Tornado. Some of those Schwarzkopf loopers are pretty intense as well; the West Edmonton Mall Mindbender pulls 5.5 G's, and is widely regarded as one of the most intense coasters out there.

If there really that many people blacking out, though, they may modify it (slowing down the lift would be my guess), so hopefully I can get up there and ride it before they do.

[chargercrazy]

You know what else they could do?

In-TRIM-idator 305 comes to mind.

I agree with you, Jonathan. If there was a place to blackout on After Burn, it would be in the batwing.

[KDcoasterMAN]

Don't "quote" me on this but I heard 305 is pulling between 5-6 Gs in that first turn. I pray they don't trim it, its good as it is.

So. All I have to say is KD you FAILED today. 305 might be one heck of a ride but you should be worried about the rest of your park. I was there for opening day today. Every Coaster I rode had ONE train running(I think the only coaster running 2 was Intimidator) and was EXTREMELY short staffed (They had 3 people working the stations). The coasters at KD are great. But I feel like they are not grateful of them. I waited 2-3 hours for each coaster and saw that the Drop Tower was stuck for about 30 mins at the top with people on it. I was so disappointed that everything took so long. I mean their coasters are built to have more than ONE train running considering most of them have loading and unloading docks. They seemed to forgot about every other ride in the park. I dont know what they were thinking today.


Oh and verdict of day after of 12 rides on Intimidator 305 bruises.

Nice to meet you Jarsh also!

[Jonathan]

How long was the wait for I-305 during the day today?

Here's some offride shots from Jarvis' favorite site.

It looks like one of those coasters you would make in RCT with like a 15 intensity without having any loops..

"Coaster 305 looks too intense for me"
"BLEAGH!"
"Guests are complaining about the pathways near Coaster 305"

[flewthecoop26]

Wow..that train FLIES through those turns. No wonder it's only a minute and a half long!

Also, I've been hearing how the blackouts and bruises just make the ride better...sounds like fun to me!

[KDcoasterMAN]

^ I'm sorry the coaster gave you bruises.

I rode in the back and it wasn't as intense as the front in my opinion.

I don't want anybody making judgements on this coaster until you ride it.

Let me just say, it's smooth, it has a 'good' intensity.
