He's not coming back. Ever. I drove him away. He couldn't handle it anymore. The constant strain of having to delete my posts has finally gotten to him and now I am in control; full and total control. All aspects of the site are now mine to dominate... Mine to subjugate...Mine to rule! The site and all its members are now just worms under my heel awaiting their imminent destruction.

I helped! Granted, I didn't make fun of the medical conditions of others, but I helped.
 
I'm not sure why you don't believe me. You will see. And if I'm wrong it doesn't matter because plans change.

This post was by somebody named "Shindig Raver", not me. The site staff incorrectly merged accounts.
 
I leave PzP and Alpen alone for a few hours and I come back to this. Seriously?

Anyway, back to Verbolten. Also, PzP, your 2nd account has been merged into your normal one.
 
Speaking of Verbolten's headlights... http://bgwfans.com/2013/verbolten-now-with-headlights/

They really do look quite good in person. I don't think the pictures & video really do them justice.

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that the Busch Gardens VA Blog has some pictures of Verbolten being worked on. The article is about what they do in the off season, nothing all that intersting. It shows Verbolten with a pair of its decorative wheels off. So go check it out if you haven't already.

http://www.buschgardensvablog.com/what-happens-season <----- a link.
 
Don't know why they weren't included in the blog post, but here are the full-size versions of the images:

I just hope they spend a long time figuring out what the issues were from last year.

Honestly, there wasn't that many, after the first month or two the ride ran very well with an occasional downtime here and there. I think the ride is perfectly fine maintenance wise.
