What should I build next?

I want it to be

themed to Halloween, so a rocket coaster would be kinda hard to do.

Post

opinions.

Here's an idea:

How about you

build something like this. It's the Spider at Lagoon Amusement Park, Salt

Lake City, Utah. It has a big spider at the entrance, so the theme would go perfectly

with Halloween. Don't worry about making the cars spin. But, I'm sure

you could find a way to add the giant spider.

I voted rocket coaster because they are fun and easy

to build. You could call it The Thriller and play Michael Jackson songs! J/K. It

isn't hard to make a rocket coaster themed to Halloween. Just give it a spooky

name. An invert would be good too.

I voted "other". Maybe you could go for a

"ghostrider" them like at knotss berry farm, or a "collossis

theme" like at six flags magic mountain. I"ve always thought wooden

coasters were mor scary cause they had so many supports, it would be really dark at

night, and it wasn't smooth, so the jerkyness would be a sense of thrill also. But

thats real life coasters.

ON halloween at six flags, they take collosis and

run the trains Backwards !!! Also, you could make lots of tunnels for

darkness (even though you want to see the coaster).

but i also like

westside's opinion also about spider !

ITs up to you!

By the way westside, your insanity coasters ROCKS !!

I like GregM's Idea, but it looks very

difficult...

I could try, though.

If any of you have any pictures

of a clone of that ride it would be great, those pictures aren't too good...

But, I like the idea. I might use the same elements, just smaller and more

original.

Or, even better, if anyone has been to the park and have

any tips for scenery, (coasterfreak, you can help with the spiderwebs) that would be

great.

OK, I have decided on the ride type.

Stay tuned and see

the topic in the Construction Forum (called "Spider").
