This is a good topic, has been started at a lot of

sites...

If your trip to the opening of TTD in 2003 was featured on

World's Wildest Police Videos...

If your clocked speed was the

same as TTD's launch speed...

If you try to see how fast your car will get in 4

seconds compared to TTD!
(I have tried it and my Escort only gets to

about 45mph!

. . . when you purposely go around turns 10+ mph

faster then said on the sign to experience the lateral g's.
. . . you know the

route to work/school with the most airtime hills.
. . . when you tell people

you're going on vacation they don't even ask if you're going to an

amusement park. They already know.

speedomiter, I keep thinking of different speeds of rollercoasters.

. . . on the drive home you hang your hand out the

window and act like it's a train going through a coaster's track.
. .

.when you get off a coaster with your friends and they say something like 'Wow

man, that loop-de-loop was sick!' you launch into a tirade explaining that

the element is properly called a vertical loop and then teaching them the fundamentals

of other various ride elements.
