The theming on that ride is just bizarre.  What could it possibly have
to do with Airwolf.  Cool ride though, and awesome lego model of the ride.

A lot of the rides have bizzaire themes that I think are misinterpruted by
the Europeans as to what North American life is like.  There is for example
a KMG/Tivoli "Remix" called Techno Power that has a backdrop of an American
flag, a DJ giving the finger with both hands, and a signifigant amount of
Bling-Bling strewn about.  And of course the KMG Afterburner "Extreme" that
has the backdrop of the naked motorcyclist and his girlfriend, while
enjoying the company of a Doberman Pincer.

The best looking Topscan is probably Skater, it has a nice backdrop.

All 3 of the Infernos are *fantastic* looking, Nightfly takes the best
though because it is seriously just coated in lights.  New Comer looks great
too because it has a space theme and I'm all about the fonts on that (random
numbers and such put all over it to make it look spaceship-like).

You don't see a lot of backdrops on the rides at fairs in North America.  I
don't know why!

And I have no idea who Jan-Michael Vincent, and Ernest Borgnine are!  :)

Hey I can post again. :-) I tried replying to Iain's Airwolf post, and how disturbing it was to see Jan-Michael Vincent, and Ernest Borgnine on a fair ride.
