Australian Amusement Fanatics

Thanks Dell

Interesting to see Thunderbolt, maybe it has came out of retirement? Also interesting to see Midnight Maddness up there, some good pics and thanks for that dell. Just a quick question dell, was Chants Rockin Roll there? Who owns the midnight maddness now? Where are you off to next dell?

The Midnight Madness is owned by Stewart Watkins, brother of Russel. Yeh suprising to see Bell's Thunderbolt, will probably do the one off show, if that was there, I'm guessing Chant's Rock N Roll wasn't, which I heard has had a problem which happened at Melbourne, so I'm guessing if it wasn't there it may still have a problem?? Thanks for the photos Dell

Bad luck for Chants as this is the seccond problem they have had with their new rides, hopefuly the problem can be resolved and hope all is good with Freestyle now. I am guessing that Thunderbolt was called in at the last minute to replace Rockin' Roll, so will most likey be a once off. Just a big run of bad luck for Chants at the moment. It will be just my luck that Midnight Madness will do Ballarat.

Thanks for all that top gunner, I now understand how it works.

Yeh sorry I got a bit carried away

didn't see rock an roll there. and am at stawell show tomorrow, ararat sunday. got a few new rides there, Bad boys II, Spaceball, and crazy dancer. as well as cha cha, dodgem cars, and ferris wheel.

Oh ok, will you be taking pics dell? Good to see another AAF member getting around to some shows, that some of us havn't been to.

i take photos of every show. but only really upload the big ones. next will be warrnambools, and ballarats i'll upload.

Ok I will be at Ballarat and so will Huss I think. Hopefully a good line up, I am hoping for a Zipper. Any pics would be apreciated from any show, it doesn't matter if it is small or large it still counts. I would really like to see some pics from Stawell and/or Ararat. Good to hear that Crazy Dancer is doing some shows.

Just as I was thinking we got rid of the real dribbler, he returns, don't even try Topgunner.

ok when you buy a ride it is built to perform the way it is designed to its not like a car, rock n roll won't flip like thunderbolt because the track is not the same Mildura is not a one of it is doing Albury and rock n roll was having a generator fitted to its prime mover ,not having problems from Melbourne and princess you can kiss it.

The rock & roll has a device behind each car to prevent them swinging to far. They have probably been removed from that American swing as they are missing from the ride in that clip. This should solve this myth that rides need to be broken in no that is crap . it sounds like you have been listening to itsfun a little to much.
