Joe, I like the sound of a Kings Dominion FIRST get-together. That would be fun, and I know some people at the park, I'm not sure if they still work there, but they are the high management people. If I can get into contact with them, I might be able to arrange a FIRST Day kind of thing, just like the BET Day that happened last week. BET Day was a day when only people from BET Productions could get into the park, and it was a day for just them, and in the evening they had a huge concert, don't know how much money it would be, but it would be fun. But the catch is that we would have to get a ton of people to go, so we would have to have a registry, and you would have to pay in advance, and you would have to kick back some cash if you wanted to have a concert. But if we didn't have a concert, we could do some sort of off-season competition with robots from previous years and such.

To the comment about the Six-Flags coaster Deja Vu, it was still in the expirimental stages when I rode it as Six-Flags over Georgia. They had the speed really turned down from what it is now, mainly because they didn't know how fast they could run it without it flying of of the return incline. The rumor is that when first built, Six-Flags over Georgia lost 2 trains by shooting them off of the return incline. But it was an insane coaster to say the least.
