This will get you $8 off a all day golf and ride pass. The big drop tower is the best ride in the park. Sea Dragon, Musik Express (called Magic Carpet), the Flume and Patriot are also fun. Whatever you do, don't ride Desert Storm in the back. It's brutal. The arcade has a lot of awesome games, and the mini golf is worth a try if you get the all-day pass...since there aren't many rides to take up your time. If there is no wait for the Go-Karts, ride them, because they always seem to have a wait. They are free with ride pass.

I drove by Castles and Coasters on the way to the University of Arizona. It's right next to the road. I was in a van full of 9 people, half asleep, I open my eyes to see a coaster? It was really random, but I got really excited... cause it's the only park I saw in Arizona...We wanted to stop but we were behind schedule.

Be sure to ride the Ram Rods...

i was there a few weeks ago, ride Desert Storm, and get an all day pass, cause Desert Storm is really good for a no-name designed coaster. Go on a weekend, lots of kids, weekday, not too many. Go before school ends (2:30-3:30 is a horrible time) Then, if it's lunch or dinner time, go to the RetroCenter, next to the Park. the ultraPass thingy is really a good value.

i believe he wants to know the line length.

not bad. everybody does the go-karts and minigolf, and they run a decent bang on those. not too bad for Desert Storm.

Kingda speaks "Kaka" apparently. Once he speaks in a more respectable tone we'll speak. I'm glad Castles and Coasters was brought up because I'd like to get there eventually as well.

I've only been to the park twice. Once it was fairly crowded, but the lines weren't bad. People stick to the arcade and mini golf. Sky Diver, the best ride in the park, has a low capacity. Be sure to ride it, though. I've been on 300-foot-tall drop towers, and this little guy is the best drop ride I've ridden.

Go for the credits, stay for the arcade and mini golf.

Also, I love seeing Arizona people here. We should visit CnC sometime. Have a TN meet.
