  1. Just had a thought. When you said moving maintenance areas. What about looking into buying Masters building across the road when they close down? That would save you having to build the building itself. Really would depend on how much masters are selling of for really. Then you have another overflow carpark. But I wonder how much the store would cost. * Western Power must love receiving your power bill.
  2. The RMS ride list is now up. The Jungle Kingdom Dark ride is heading to RMS so is Mega Drop, Beast and Python Loop. Fingers crossed Infinity and TPA's Huss pirate ship come to PRS. https://royalshow.com.au/attractions/rides/coca-cola-thrillseekers-carnival/
  3. Last time I went on the Go Karts it had over an hour wait. (It timed it on my phone) This was before Kraken and Abyss.
  4. Yup. The only thing would be putting the extra safety stuff in. IE some rides will not operate unless gates are closed and so on. But for a ride like Tea Cups and saucers all I would need to do differently is add a few more motors and maybe lights.
  5. So its my last day at TAFE doing my electrical pre-app and we were wiring up control pannel to 3-phase motors. While doing this I realised I just wired up the electrical components for a ride. On/off switch, emergency stop, all internal electrical stuff and then the 3-phase parts and motor. All I wanted to do was to put something on the end and then have my own little ride.
  6. With only 17 days till the IGA Perth Royal Show commences. The ride list has come out and officially one new ride has been confirmed and we have been told that more will be out soon. The new ride is called "The Extreme Thriller" which made its Debut to the major traveling show circuit this year (Adelaide Show) is making its way West and will be coming to the show this year. We will keep you updated as more rides are announced. This is good news considering some old classics not return like the Python Loop. Stay tuned for more infomation. So I was right that it was coming west. Hopefully the other few new rides from the RAS coming to the PRS. Including the travelling pirate ship. That will get some people in the gates.
  7. Judging by the photo @AlexB it looks like you correct. If you look how all feet are facing down to the ground.
  8. It looks like from that photo that if you were in the inside seats you could kick the person sitting opposite to you.
  9. I just hope if I have away 300 million they would tell me what the ride is and not keep me waiting.
  10. The Cable Car from Singapore to Santos Island is a tourist attraction. However it has a large capacity. It is like the one they are trying to build over the swan river from Kings Park to Elizabeth Quay and then down to the new stadium. I am pretty sure each cart can hold around 6 people concretely and they have air-conditioning.
  11. Or they could get a cable car system like Singapore has to Sentosa Island. Heck they even have a bridge going over to Sentosa which has travelators going the whole length so you can walk over.
  12. I am getting it tonight. Yay!!! Will be my first time with a season pass. Unfortantly I get my P's in May next year. So I guess Public Transport is the way. * Still trying to talk my friends into get them so I don't have to always go by myself. But thats what the 8 40% of tickets are for.
  13. If I had of one the 1.2 Billion dollar lottery they had in America not long ago. I am sure I could have donated 300 million to AW for a few B&M's, Intamins, and so on.
  14. Why can't people just appreciate these photo updates. If you don't want to see another photo update don't cheek the forum. Nobody is forcing you to look at these pictures. I doubt you will complain when you see thousands of photos of MW's coaster construction. Let's adopt the saying if you have nothing nice to contribute to the forum don't comment. Some people are just being rude lately. When people are going out of their way to post an update for us to enjoy. Some people who live on the other side of the country can't see it themselves.
  15. AW posted this on their Facebook page. They have referred to the quote "Kraken gets the worm". Anyone have any idea what this means?
  16. Seems like VRTP is addicted to spending money this year. Seems like with them spending so much cash this year it's going to be quite a long time before they start to see any profit. But it's going to be great for them to show of their new things come commonwealth games. i just hope if they do a water park they take a page out of AW's book and themes their water slides.
  17. The WAtoday finally picked up the story about BR's removal and MI3 announcment. http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/adventure-world-to-get-new-75-million-ride-but-is-a-bounty-revival-coming-20160901-gr6bb6.html So it seems like it will be a ride that suits the same market that BR covered. Which is great news.
  18. Keep in mind that bigger footers don't always mean tall coaster. It could mean that the soil is really soft and requires a bigger footer. IE when Mark told us for the to put a bowl element on the Kraken they would need 30 meter deep footings due to soft soil.
