I vaguely remember it being where Corkscrew Hill is now and so I assume it was the same type of ride. I never got to ride it though. So what was the ride like and what was its theme?

It was similar to King Arthur's Challenge only better. Much maller in screen size than corkscrew hill, and it was about a Medieval Quest with two kings.

Not quite. Is was a journey to find a certain kind of power crystal for the ship in which you were "flying". I distinctly remember the "auger" drilling into the side of the cave...and the tumble over the waterfall.

Before Questor, that row of buildings had a fun house.

Yes, Questor was amazing and above and beyond anything that has replaced it. It's story line followed a elfish inventor who needed a magical crystal. The riders were put into his machine went trapsing thru the woods, splashed and floated down a river only to fall off a waterfall, then soared out of the fall and through the air. The coup-de-gras was the drilling sequence, in which our quirky inventor finds the jewl hidden deep in a cave. The inventor had a tractor-beam like device designed to take us directly to the crystal and when it was activated it rushed the riders toward the jewl. Our inventor guy fired it up and you went from hundreds of feet up to falling - drilling - and then being speedily sucked thru a cavern dodging stalagtites (and -mites), up down left and right. This sequence was amazingly fun and exciting. Never did I ride it when people didn't laugh aloud in the car and grip more tightly to theier arm rests. After the zooming cave ended at a cavern where the crystal was located, finally the claw reached out and grabbed the long sought after object.

Sound like fun? Well it was. and to add more salt to the wound of the loss it was fabulosly themed! The cavern esque walk led to our little inventor animatronic (that's right BGE had an animatronic) who would give a pep talk to the crowd before getting in the machine. Then the themeing extended into the simulator itself with the screen bieng cluttered around the adges with an intrument panel which gave you more of a sense of being apart of it. to top it all off in the upper corner of the instrument panel was a screen which showed our elfish captain all through out the ride. He would talk to you and give you updates and you could watch him steering you to your near fatal end.

It could have been better - yes even I will admit to that. But neither the KAChallenge nor the Corkscrewhill which followed it ever came close to the expeirience it gave it's riders!

It involved the same ride kind of thing, though, right? I mean, were yousitting in a moving box with seats in it?

Was it similar to Wild Arctic in Sea World Orlando (kind of like Corkscrew Hill, but not stereoscopic, and it has completely enclosed ride vehicles with much smaller screens)?

Questor was a "flight simulator" ride which had two seperate simulator cabins with about 30 seats each (larger than the Star Tour cabins in Orlando). There was a large screen in the front that was not opened until the ride started. There was also two smaller screens on eather side of the large screen; one showing the "pilot" (your crazed scientist adventure guy) and the other showing your ship's energy levels and the like. The ride had seatbelts and had a detection system that could sense if a seatbelt was not fastened. The ride would not operate with an unfastened belt which meant the operator had to find the empty seats via a small LCD screen inside the cabin that displayed the fastened and unfastened belts, then stumble over the seated guests and fasten the belts. Once all were fastened, the operator would lock them, leave the cabin and enter the control room to start the ride. The best seat was the back right which gave you the widest range of motion. It was not uncommon for the ride to malfunction at least once every other hour. The film becoming out of sync with the motion computers was the biggest problem.

Maybe this will help a clip from Busch Gardens Tampa. I was looking for it too one time to remind me of it because I haven't rode that since I was a child. The video I didn't make so I can't take credit for it.

There was an arcade over there too. Where both the fun house and arecade ever there at the same times? What year was the Turvey Manor Fun house removed?

awww!!!! I wish I could have ridden that :-(

I rode questor when I was a kid. I really wish they had it back. I'd prefer the old area rather than ireland. Castle O'Sullivan show, magic shop, questor. Corkscrew hill is fun and all but I had much more fun on questor.

Questor was fun, but just like King Arthur's Challenge and Corkscrew Hill, it got old fast. I wish they'd change the movie in that ride more frequently.

There was one major physical difference in the Questor ride that I haven't seen mentioned yet. The vehicle you sit in was entirely enclosed, with the screen inside. Now it's a moving platform in front of a large, stationary screen.

Out of curiosity, I searched for Questor on Youtube. And- surprisingly, I found some footage! It's from Tampa but the Williamsburg version was very similar. Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTNWeVaY050
