That Hit In 2000 is a VERY nice looking ride too! To me, it looks nicer than Strates' Musik Express, but that's just me. I like the Musik Express on Strates Shows with that nice scenery panel. If i remember right, it also has Michael Jackson's face & him moonwalking on it near the center of the scenery panel. But that Hit In 2000 is just brilliant looking with all of those chasing lights on it, looks spectacular at night time! [8D]

never seen Strates Musik express, but sure do remember Frank Kopchkas on East Coast Shows.(Many,many years ago)They are beauties.
But the nicest Himilaya type ride on the road today is without a doubt NAME's POLAR EXPRESS. This classic has been turning & turning for at least 30 years now.(That I know of)The first time I saw it on Conklins show at The Big E circa 1979 it was a sight to behold. I saw it again two years ago at Calgary and again at this years Big E.I can't imagine how many miles this big old heavy beauty has logged over North America,but it's got to be over a million!!
Heres to all boys that have set it up , torn it down, moved it and most importantly, maintained her over these many decades!!!! My hat is off to you all!

I'm excited to see the Dragstrip Slide. I've seen it in a picture, that thing looks pretty neat!

I was in New Market Maryland a few weeks ago and the guy hauling that dragstrip slide came to visit the park where we were at. (Adventure Park) Man that is one pretty slide racked up like that.
