Just ignore skywheel, he is overworked and frequently has a wedgie problem which leads to such outbursts.

Now work on getting the money and start buying.

well you got the garbrick mixer dead on, to hell with the sizzler. btw a rebuild on a motor cost is 900$ wtf the damn thing new was 1200, sold a bum motor i have a few choice words for the m$^$#fu^%kers but ill keep it to myself.
so this is why i say the mixer is far better of a ride, sizzler motors just go down, then you got a bum sweep, but not good'ol garbrick more people more ticket sales no fuss.
love that ride..

just for the record, motor was bought locally

I would buy a couple of small rides and concession and play small festivals that do not have rides already. That`s my game plan for the future.

The hyd. motors are an easy fix in the field, you just need the talents to repair them.

It will cost about that much more for generator, wire, junction boxes, trucks, bunkhouse, insurance, help and getting the equipment inspection ready.
Phil did I leave anything out?
