Re: ***Official Intimidator Construction Thread***

Not just that Behemoth has three straight hills with trims, but Intimidator's trim is smaller. Just one block, not two.

Looking that way, which would mean just one trim on the ride. I'm pretty sure Behemoth has 3 straight hills with one, so that would be quite an improvement.

Are my eyes deceiving me or are both of those smaller camelbacks trim free??

Nice.

... or Mantis, you'll know why. Just think about it logically. Your speed is already slowing when you are traveling uphill. Slowing it more with a trim isn't a natural motion, but it's a lot more natural than slowing it while you are accelerating traveling downhill. You would probably get thrown ...

That view from across the street over the gas station is awesome, except that you can see the trim even from there. :0

I kid I kid, this coaster is beautiful.

Must ride on day 1!

^ good one Jonathan.... last time I rode Mean Streak (2004) there was a trim near the top of the first drop. Made a bad ride worse, imo. Maybe someone should start a "next coaster to add a trim" poll.... I hope to heck it isn't Afterburn. I remember ...

Hurler wasn't amazing before the trim, now it should be amazingly bad. Right after the first drop? Wow...

... There a hill... http://inlinethumb50.webshots.com/45425/2684940060054618143S600x600Q85.jpg And one final note....they put a trim on Hurler. Yeah. It was barely on yesterday though, hope it stays that way. Thanks Wormy and everyone else for the great updates over the season.

Unless I have just completely lost my mind, Hurler definitely does not have a trim at the bottom of the first drop, or anywhere else on the ride. Unless of course it was added sometime this season.

... my season! 31 rides today, could probably have done more but I had friends new to the park who wanted to try all the different rides. Behemoth's trims got turned on later in the day, but the first half of the day we had trim-free rides. Even with trims on, I still got powerful airtime and forces, ...

The Trim whining really needs to stop, Our coaster will be fantastic with or without trims and as said before some trims are only used when needed. When a train has too much speed/weather conditions, etc.
