i'm going to frontier city on saturday?




AC DC FTW


in Oklahoma and its been awhile seen i been their can anybody tell me if their are any new rides
its been about 3 years since i been their



Answer
Here is a list of Thrill and Family rides, and then they have The water rides and Kid rides (It's cold though so I don't know about the water rides)

Mindbender
A carriage filled with the brave catapults 50 feet high and flips head over heels towards the Earth before being scooped up and tossed in the air again. (Must be 48â or taller)

Eruption
Get vertical on the tallest thrill ride in Oklahoma! Erupt over 240 feet in the air before plummeting back to Earth. (Must be 52â or taller)

Silver Bullet
Itâs like being shot from a cannon as you rocket through this high speed steel looping coaster. (Must be 48â or taller)

Wildcat
Frontier Cityâs classic wooden coaster is a definite must-ride! (Must be 48â or taller)

Diamond Back
Speed down this steel track and race through a breathtaking loop. Then, look out! This ride strikes you back and you experience the whole thing again in reverse. Entrance inside Frontier Trading Company. (Must be 48â or taller)

Hangman
Hang tight on the Hangman as guests catapult almost 100 feet before plummeting back to Earth (Must be 48â or taller).

Rodeo Round-Up
High speed thriller that spins riders horizontally, then vertically. (Must be 48â or taller)

Steel Lasso
Let your feet dangle as you soar over the frontier on Oklahomaâs only suspended family coaster. (Must be 38â or taller)

Casino
Spin and tilt on this high-speed roulette style ride. (Must be 42â or taller)

Olâ 89er Express
Take a trip around the entire park in this two-carriage train ride. (Must be 42â or taller)

The Prairie Schooner
Swing back and forth and high into the air on this pirate ship that flies instead of sails. (Must be 48â or taller)
T
ornado
Hang on tight for this tilting spinning ride. (Must be 48â or taller)

Dodge âEms
Bumper cars for big kids and adults (Must be 48â or taller).

Tin Lizzyâs
Take a ride on these electric powered, mini antique cars. (Must be 48â or taller to drive)

Grand Centennial Ferris Wheel
A 20â gondola Ferris Wheel that gives riders a fantastic view of Frontier City. (Must be 42â or taller)

Quick Draw
Test your shooting skills as you take aim with an electronic gun and capture the sneaky bandits. (Must be 42â or taller)

Sidewinder
Hang on tight as this ride gets going. Youâll spin in tight circles as the entire ride twirls. (Must be 48â or taller)

Grand Carousel
Round and round you go on this nostalgic family ride. Our classic merry-go-round. (Must be 42â or taller)

I doubt it's changed much since you've been there though. I'm 23 and have lived in Oklahoma almost all my life and it hasn't changed much for 23 years.
They might be changing soon though because this summer I noticed they had a lot of pretty popular bands come through this year so they might have generated enough money off of that to make some changes

What intake should i buy?




jamesbriti


I have a 2005 Acura TSX and need help deciding if i should get a Ram supercharger kit from www.superchargerswarehouse.com or a Weapon-R Secret Weapon Intake from www.erzperformance.com


Answer
You're kidding right? An electric supercharger? That's incredibly dumb. Those don't work and frankly don't really equate to an intake (even though there's an intake included).

I have a secret weapon in my car, it's a short ram. Short rams are bad for engines that put out a lot of heat because they pull air from around the engine rather than the wheel well (cold air intake); you can compress more cold air than hot air in a combustion cycle. I suggest you get a cold air intake (k&n typhoon if they make them for your car).

I converted the short ram into actual bumper ram air and it works well.

Still if you have an automatic you'll have phantom gains (you'll swear you have more power but by dyno you won't). Besides, the tsx has a pig of a rich tune that won't be cured by intake alone.

Do you think the government should force manufacture of fuel effciant cars?




Nate H


They have electric roadsters that do 0-60 in 3 seconds and have a 100 mile plus range lineing up for production. Just add a small desile generator and some solar panels and it will get 100 to infinity miles per gallon. Why don't they mandate hybred and solor car manufacturing! Think they should make a limit on how much fuel a vehical can consume? Like 1 gallon per hour private and 3 commercial?


Answer
You can't mandate something like that.

The consumer dictates what will be built. The companies respond to that.

When gas got to $3.00 a gallon, SUV and pickup sales went down to its lowest levels since 1995. People were looking into more efficient cars. Toyota and Honda had already thought ahead and been producting them. The government encourages it by giving tax breaks and allowing them into HOV lanes. The US car makers were still churning out SUV's and fell behind yet again. Now Toyota is poised to become the number one car maker because they're able to think ahead, innovate, and respond quicker to the market.

Now that gas is back to $2.06 a gallon, people are going *whew* and are driving SUV's again. But there is a percentage that are thinking ahead and are selling their SUV's and buying the Toyota's and Honda's.

You can blame the SUV and Minivan market in part on the increased safety levels required by the government. Since they require car seats for each kid, a family with three kids needs a larger vehicle so Minivan's were born. Guys were harassed about driving a "minivan" so the car manufacturers created SUV's to satisfy a guy's ego.

Then you have the Hummer type ads. You've seen them. Where they harass the moms now, calling them wimps and pressuring them to buy Hummers. What a bunch of crap.

would it be rude to do this?




The Vanill


so i'm really interested in the chevrolet volt, and my dad said he would maybe buy me a new/very nice used car if my driving record was clean by the time im 18. i'm 16 now and still have a clean record so if it worked out he would maybe buy me one in 2 years. so anyway, i really like the volt, and i think it would be a good car for me to have because i can use the electric fuel to and from school and plug it in every night, and then switch to gas for longer trips. but i want to actually feel how it drives and see if i really like it. now i know that test driving a car if i have no intention of driving it is extremely rude because salesmen would be wasting time with me when they could be dealing with a customer who actually wants to buy something, but would it be rude if i took a test drive anyway? because assuming that my dad's deal with me is still in place when im 18 i would really like to have this car but like i said im not sure because ive never driven it or anything.


Answer
Irrelevant. You cannot test drive a car until you are 18.

And yes, don't waste my fu(king time. It IS rude little kid.

20 years in car sales/management/finance and I would laugh you off the showroom (as any other self-respecting sales person SHOULD do). Can't get a car for 2 years and you want to test drive one?!? Come on. Bull$h!t.
