Was told that they took the mirrors off ... because people kept breaking them and ugly steel gray ovals on either side of the train does not look good... apparently it looks as if they were never there
 
Um I wanted to ask this question a long time ago, but I guess now is as good as ever. Okay, has anyone noticed how verbolten's restraints when they go down they don't do that clicking sound, and it won't have space between you because your body is in between locks. So I just wanted to ask how they do this. I know it is more of a simple question, but it really surprised me how it did this when it first opened. Does anybody know how this works?

Hydraulics I believe. Not entirely positive but from pictures of various rides that's what it probably is.

Thanks because I've never been a person who needs to be strapped down as hard as possible, but I thought it was pretty interesting how they do this. Oh! Maybe it uses something similar to dark Castle's restraints, because they do the same thing.
 
I heard an interesting things the other day; apparently it is a write-up offense for a team member to call Verbolten, Verbroken. Apparently, the park is very interested in keeping their team member from mocking the ride despite the fact it really doesn't deserve it like Mach Tower does :p

That's an illegal rule...
 
I think it reminds me more or less about the stupid and silly laws that states have passed. For example, while in the state of Virginia you are only allowed to have sex in the missionary position. Obviously this isn't enforced, but my point it is, the rule at the park is just another silly stupid thing just like laws passed for some states.
 
In case you forgot or didn't know:
