INTIMIDATOR 305-Setting a Record!
« on: Apr 25, 2010, 05:19 »
Intimidator 305, the new coaster for Kings Dominion in 2010, as many of you well know by now, has become so popular in the past month of its operations, that it is drawing coaster enthusiasts, and those who just love this particular coaster. We caught up on Saturday with James, who, as of 3pm yesterday, has ridden this beast 221 times! James plans to continue to ride the coaster over and over, surpassing 305 times, and hopes to ride the coaster hundreds of times more. Each time James got a ride in on Intimidator 305, we watched as he got his notepad out to keep record of his rides. James is not the only one that comes to the park and rides Intimidator 305 over and over, all day long. Danny Biggerstaff has ridden this coaster 111 times himself, and he to plans to ride it at least 305 times and then surpass that!

I wonder how many rides he averages a day? The other thing I wonder is how he can do it. All those twists and turns on Intimidator are sure to throw you around a good bit, and I heard it's an intense ride with some great G's in it. Amazing that he's at 221 by the way. I say, keep on going James!

We have a guy here at WOF that has been on Boomerang thousands upon thousands of time! Not sure what he is at anymore. I for the life of me can't remember his name right now, I think he told us he went on Boomerang in one afternoon some 64 or so times! If he can do that Intimidator would be no problem as for as being thrown around. He has them all in a journal that he has Ride Ops sign too. If he happens to be on here please post you totals of the rides you keep track on? If not I will find him at Coaster Mayhem and ask him. He also keeps track of a few other rides.
