Kids tended to poop out half way around and the ride opperator had no choice but go climb on the car and pump it back. This made a low capacity ride even slower and eventualy to costly to staff. Too bad, it was fun.
I got to thinking about this today. Couldn't they just put in a simple chain system that the ride operator can turn on and pull the kids around if the kids start to poop out? And to make it so more kids can ride they could put in another track so there are two tracks going around at once and then it could be a race type ride.
