Post Great Weekend II

never been before and very different to what i expected.

real shame it was raining at first but it did dry off a bit later,

Thoes kick serious a$$, I went on one in billings montana and in South Dakota, billings had a slick track, that kicked A$$$$!!! The one in SD went about 20mph, (Which for a theme park is fast) so that was fun.. We got some around here but they are slow so it's boring.

im gutted it was a damp track because top seeps in the dry are about 60mph and wet 40 - 50mph (at end of straight)

it was a great track and they can make it bigger or smaller by sectioning it off, we used about 1/2 the track and it was bout a minute a lap.
