... the roof. Or it was also the fact that the building is just too old to be moved? Which one is it? Also, in the official POV, did anyone notice any trim brakes? I didn't see any so kudos to that if there aren't any.

... I worked at except Backlot had a range for speed. as news souces told it "shortly after Intimidator 305 opened in 2010, Kings Dominion added trim brakes which slowed its original speed of 94 mph. In 2011, Kings Dominion modified the ride and removed the trim brakes. That put it back in the ...

... allow me to save the model. So I basically wasted 2 1/2 days. I had to leave my computer on all that time so I could finish the model. I added trim brakes, but I forgot to edit their brake speed. Also, there were only four options for painting the spine: ---Plain ---Top accented ---top/bottom ...

Many claim Intimidator to be one of the milder B&M Hypers out there. With full trims I could see that, however if you're lucky enough to get a rare trim-free ride than Intimidator is amazing. I've been on Goliath, Apollo's Chariot, and Diamondback. With trims ...

... done with the first turn into the first hill that was refurbed as other parts of the ride last year, the ride has gotten a new lease at life. The trim brake is removed and the ride is not as jolting as it once was.

When Hurlers run good, they run really good. I hope they keep the trim off.

Hopefully I'll get to ride Thunder Run after it's rehab this year too.

Any news on if KD's Hurler is getting any love?
