Magnum XL- 200 at Cedar Point

[Tanks4me05]

Opened in 1989
On going rumor that it is sinking.

I would give it a 6.5/10 For some reason, I don't remember the airtime on a coaster the first time I ride it, and I only rode it once. If I remembered the airtime, I would probably gice this ting something near an 8/10, but all I remember is hat it was very rough.

Heres a Quote from "Roller Coasters a thrill seekers guild to coasters by Robert coker"

"Now owned by Paramount's, Kings dominion's planners were ready to create a ride that would let this volcano live up to it's potentian.The desingers said " we will create the frirst "Impulse" coaster in the world."


I was right about the impulse coaster and color

[medieval]

Volcano is not a impluse. This is a Impluse:http://www.rcdb.com/ig747.htm?picture=6
Or, the popular Wicked Twister at Cedar Point.
Volcano uses LIMs as well as Impluses, but Impluses are not comlete circuit coastes, they are considered as Shuttles. Volcano is a complete curcuit, so it is not a Impluse.

[BSBMX]

Actually, I think Intamin calls all their coasters that uses LIM technology an impulse, regardless of it being a full circuit or shuttle.

[Byron]

No, VTBC is classified as a Suspended Catapult Coaster, I believe.

[Kingdakasurivor]

Eurostar

Inverted
4 inversions


Poltergiest

[BSBMX]

Premier LIM coaster. Same layout as the FoF coasters, just without the building. 0-54ish mph in 4 seconds. Insanely awesome pretzel/spagetti(sp?) bowl.
