The ride does weigh each train before dispatch automatically along with wind speed to determine just how fast to actually launch the train. It ranges really from around 98kph to 103 - 104kph depending on various factors. Batwing also weigh's the gondola during the countdown to determine just how much air pressure is required to launch it for the optimum ride experience. The ride can not be launched at a speed set by the operator and i'm not 100% weather or not it can be changed in maintenance mode. There have been incidents that have happened, that the media have not got a hold of. But in saying that they would be reasonably minor incidents... I remember a boat load of asian tourists freaking the hell out on the turntable of Wild West Falls when I was in the lift room as they had a cane toad hopping about in their boat. One of them jumped out before it reversed haha... I've never hit a ride stop button that quickly in my life... ... and then there was the time I accidentally hit an emergency stop button when a giant huntsman dropped on my head in the lift of West as well. The supervisors said they had never seen anyone run that fast... I screamed, tried to swat it away and hit the e-stop accidentally... and then ran out my door and out of the mountain... I didn't work on Wild West Falls for a month or 2 after that one... needless to say, I don't like spiders...

Depends really on where the boats were when the ride stopped. Sometimes the ride can reset almost straight away (well... as long as it takes to evacuate / refill the water which is about 5 - 10 minutes) or sometimes it can be a right royal pain in the ass to reset... or it just simply will chuck a hissy fit and keep faulting for a few hours or worst case all day.

Yeah no water actually stays behind the mountain. It will all come down to the main lagoon. If you have a look next time you're at the ride, you can see a water line around the walls of the lagoon and the timber surrounding the runout that gives an idea of the shutdown water height.

Yeah I would discourage any posting of where the 'blind spots' are on ride cameras just due to the fact people may be stupid and try to use that info act up.

What could it mean? It's scooby's disco room - it could mean A LOT of different things... Could have been a trial with the equipment on loan from a supplier hoping to sell some to the park... could have stolen them to mount on the carnivale floats... might not be able to see them now because the foggers are empty and therefore no beam? blew a fuse in show control?
