No more dreaming of the dead as the death itself was undone
No more crawling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so long
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so long
Dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world.

Like so many record breaking roller coasters, the Kingda Ka has experienced multiple mechanical issues forcing its closure for days and sometimes weeks at a time. If you are going to Great Adventure specifically to ride the Kingda Ka it is highly recommended to check the ride's status via park's website. It is beyond the scope of this site to keep the operational status of roller coasters current on a day-to-day basis.

Its not as if Omgabear cant just look at the websites i bet he has seen this stuff over and over again... And he pointed out he only needed to know the weight of a train (people in or out im not sure). Originally Posted by Jake,

I did say this: Originally Posted by Crimson

Anyways, I'll try and look up the nearest similar rollercoaster next to Kinda Ka (Thrill coaster or something like that) and see if they have anything...
Here we go:
each train on Top Thrill Dragster weighs 6.3 tons
That's the most similar coaster to the Kingda Ka, i'll check passanger numbers to see if they're the same.
Ok TTD has 18 people per train...
And the KK has 18 people per train
So I would estimate that one train is about 6.3 Tons, might not be exactly accurate due to design though. That's my rough guess done.Last edited by Kardan; 17-08-2006 at 10:47 AM.

The Top Thrill Dragster should be about the same as the
Kingda Ka so I calculated that each cart should be about 1.26 tons.
6.3 tons = train mass divide by 5 = carts on train = 1.26 tons
