Talking Be there an official Crushes Coaster pass of fastness?

I know it doesn't say so on the map, and the map knows all, but last time I went to DLRP in July, there was a fast pass for crushes coaster! I'm not crazy, I realize that this thread title doesn't really show you that but.. Well, I guess I don't have a counter argument.

BTW, this is my 3rd post, do I get to learn the micechat secret handshake now?

Ah excellent! Now there are two lines of people to be disappointed when the ride breaks down!

How pessimistic but true Mr. Detroit. I don't know the break-down rate really since it was rain that stopped it when I was there, but surely they've got over their teething problems by now? Does anyone if the FP is returning?

The piece of track that ventures outside the warehouse. Apparently they have to stop when it rains so the rain doesn't 'harm' the guests somehow. Maybe they should just have a themed roof over it.

It's ridiculous. One teensy-tiny piece of track and the whole thing grinds to a stop. It wouldn't be so bad if the outside bit had maybe a water splash effect, but it's just a dip with some weeds around it.

There is a water splash sound effect isn't there? Or at least there was. Maybe Crush is already suffering from the 'subtract by degrees' costcutting of DLP!

Re: Be there an official Crushes Coaster pass of fastness?

I couldn't hear it, but then I wasn't listening...and hang on, a sound effect? That's rubbish!

Ah yes, so vividly recreated Nathan. Still, a sound effect? C'mon, they can do better than that!

I'd much rather have someone stood outside the outdoor track throwing live jelly fish at the passing cars. To better recreate the effect of the movie of course... Or better still, they could have the exit come out into a sushi bar! The possibility's are endless.

Re: Be there an official Crushes Coaster pass of fastness?

That reminds me of a fairground ghost train that I went on when very young. The high (low) light was turning a corner and having a bored looking carny throw half a paper cup of water over us. Spooky!
