Welcome Crazycoaster, sounds like you are going to be busy over the next week or so, we will look forward to all that you post.
As for the Cha Cha, its one of my favorite rides, I actually have not ridden one for quite sometime, so next time I am with anyone from AAF, will someone come ride with me, (promise I will be quite)lol

Sure thing! I'm also a huge Cha Cha fan and would love to go on it with you.
Speaking of such rides, I was at LPS last Tuesday and Pavier's Super Sizzler was there. Unfortunately, it ran very slowly and not in reverse. The only reason I can think of is the operator may've been told to keep the noise down as there was no music either. Joyland's Hurricane went well but they covered it with something that muffled the characteristic noise the ride is famous for. You could still hear it a bit but it was disappointing nevertheless.

Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!
I am so exited, Crazy Coaster is now here!!!!!
I was talking to one of the Crazy Coaster's operators (Last Year) and she said if they didn't make enough money they wouldn't go this year, but they must of! The Cha Cha is starting to set up usually where the horse arena is, there is going to be lots more rides this year!!!! A Rocket Simulator is also set up near where the animals were last year.

Temple of Doom has been for sale on www.australianamusementridebroker.com.au but now says sold, so I don't know. I think W&E amusements own it.

Well, this years show was magnificent! The showgrounds were packed with fabulous rides. Rides featured at this years show were:
Watkins Space Roller
Watkins Kamikaze
CLTS Tilt-a-Whirl
X 3 Dodgems
Lauries Techno Jump
Lauries Cha Cha
Lauries Breakdance
Zacchni's Temple of Doom Ghost Train
TPA's Crazy Coaster
Davis Zipper Golden Way Extreme Speed Machine
Golden Way Scorpion
Veruths Big Wheel
Cetek Hangover
Cetek Ali Baba
First up was The CTLS Tilt. This is one of my favorite rides and I haven't ridden it for ages, this ride looks really good compleate with backdrop and with loads of screams! Then I was ready to try somthing a bit more faster, Golden Way's Scorpion. The Scorpion was truly the most maddest ride I have ever been on, and I agree with Golden Way that Scorpion is the fastest ride in the Southern Hemesphere. After hopping off the Scorpion I thought to my self that I need to go on a gentle ride like Lauries Cha Cha. This ride is really good, as I haven't ridden one of them for ages! My god, by the end of it I had a sore hip from wacking it on the car, but a very good ride. Well I felt like I needed a bit more exiting like Lauries Techno Jump. I love the Techno Jump because of all the different computerised sequences, this ride is truly loads of fun! Well Breakdance was next and I was quite happy that a Breakdance turned up (we haven't had one for over five years). I love the backdrop, lighting and the signage on Lauries Breakdance. The ride feels a bit like a Cha Cha with the platform tilted, but quite enjoyable. Then was TPA's Crazy Coaster, I had been on this ride last year, but I felt I needed to have another go. I love Crazy Coaster because it spins and goes around very sharp corners. Well I needed a bit of a rest for lunch untill I tried the other rides! After Lunch we had a go on The Cetek Ali Baba. To be honest this ride looks very scary but is actually quite smooth. Ali Baba is one of my favorie rides ever! Well next was Watkins Kamikaze (the first upside down ride for the day) and to be honest, it doesn't feel safe at all. When you are upside down you lift off your seat. I didn't like Kamikaze at all. Watkins Space Roller was next and I was ready for screaming. The Space Roller was the most exiting ride I have ever been on ever, swinging from side to side and up down and around! This years show was the best show ever!

Wow ,what an awesome line-up.I only wish we can have some of these at Sale in a few weeks.The Scorpion sounds great,I'm really hanging out to try this now a few people here have given it the thumbs up.Has anyone seen a Force 10 (or Extreme Force as its now known) in action lately?,I ask because i was reminded of it by the statement of Scorpion being the fastest ride in the Southern Hemisphere.I recall Force 10 holding this title in the 90's, it was one of the few that made my eyes water due to the speed.Did you try the Hangover Crazycoaster?,most people seem to prefer this to Kamikaze.I rode Spaceroller for the first time last year at Traralgon,and I have to agree that its an amazing addition to our midways,quite mesmerizing to watch,and looks spectacular at night.But I also rode No Limit at the same show, and it makes Spaceroller's ride experience seem quite tame,I saw stars after getting off that thing .Anyway,looking forward to the pics mate.
