Grizzly

[Beetlegoose]

Did they do any trackwork on Grizzly this offseason?  Or was only Racer 75 worked on?

Nothing, still feels like your getting into a horrible car accident/plane crash.

+2 Me and the wife both agree this was the worst shaking we have ever experienced on any ride ever. The wife was left with bruises. Now if you excuse me, I’ll be at the hospital getting scanned for internal bleeding. Yes, it was that bad. Retrack it or rip it out. We won’t be riding it again until one of those happen.

if you ever plan on riding this for the first time, please do it during the day. don't let @Thomas or @Luke convince you that it is the most fun you'll ever have during a night ride

Generally, letting those two convince you to do anything is a bad idea.

IT IS THE BEST RIDE EVER AT NIGHT!

If you ride at night you can’t see the bruises on your legs! Added bonus!!

No. Love is Shrek.

Either way, I just wanna see them do a Gci retrace like Ghostrider. If they can do it to that huge old ghost rider, I’d expect it to be much cheaper for a smaller scale ride.

I would be fine with section by section. I think fully retracking the ride in an offseason wouldn’t be so exciting.

Would make the overall ride experience better cuz it’s GCI they are all awesome

There is no need to retrack Grizzly; it is perfect already.

If you need a spine realignment! HA! (Sorry I know I'm harsh on Grizzly....it's because I actually think it's a great coaster, just rough as all getout)

If it weren’t for its roughness, the ride would be awesome!

agreed! although i do think the roughness gives you an added boost of adrenaline that makes the ride more fun

Even if you feel like you’re in a Scandinavian torture chamber.

It is supposed to feel out of control and rattle.

Thankfully InvadR only succeeded at being the italicized and not the bolded.

I think partly due to the fact it’s a GCI, GCIs have aged fairly well, grizzly is a PTC and I’ve noticed that PTCs haven’t aged too well. Atleast from the ones I've been on.

I personally think it's worse than Wildcat at HP......and people are begging for something to be done to Wildcat.

Part of the issue IMO is the trains. They are terrible. Way too small of seats. I'm 6' 235 and have 0 wiggle room. The GF is 5'10" (I'm a gentleman, but she's a marathon runner so there you go) and she doesn't have enough room. They need better trains on there with more space.
