Australian Amusement Fanatics

I've been informed that another kamikaze will be arriving on our shores soon. It's not made by fabbri but satori who made lauries techno jump. T.P.A shows have bought it. It is also used and still operating over in Texas in the U.S. Not sure the actual date of the arrival. I've got to say it looks great with lots of lights and great air-brush paint work. There is a picture on the Aus fun website and i've got a picture from the manufacturers site:

Interesting! TPA are building up quite an impressive collection of rides; a carnival featuring only TPA gear would be pretty decent I reckon.

They certainly are Ben, they could definitely go it all my themselves it they wanted.

Yep. Imagine their xmas carnival with all their rides. Cliffhanger, crazy coaster, raupenbahn, paratrooper, twister, cha cha, twin flip(even though its for sale), kamikaze and super jump. And thats only their thrill rides!
That's why they sold the top gun cause they bought the kamikaze

Hopefully their carnival will be good.

Well it's all good now that Kamikaze is running. It will probably be at the showgrounds soon for TPA's work christmas parties.

Yeh V8 Tas sold the Twister (Gravitron) this year to Robert Young, that was the second ride Pickert's have ever sold with the first being the Top Gun. Yeh I heard about the computers blowing on the Kamikaze, bit of bad luck there. Good it ran well at Ekka this year.

Geez they have a heap of rides in the family. What other Ghost Train's does Jaime own? And does the family have a Trabant? On google earth it looks like there's a Trabant setup there

yes they have a trabant,its being converted to a wipeout. (back to back seats)

jamie has franky fosters old train and a new one from uk wich he is rebuilding and ofcorse roller ghoster. and yes the ufo trabant is slowly being rebuilt in to wipe out cars are almost done has new chq plate floors and all new backdrop not much to go on it but was moved down back for a while wen they started putting up new sheds dont no if they have started work on it again have not been to yard for a while but will find out

Should be interesting to see the Trabant once it's done. So they ordered the back to back seats in from Chance in the US or were they made here?

Wow three different Ghost Trains. What does Frank Foster's train look like. I'm guessing it travelled here a while ago?

its been done ap since franky had it but it is old the first to trval aus
