Are they still like that, with no divider in the middle? Ive never been on bumper cars that didnt go around a central devider, how are Mi Adv's? How many other parks have these? I dont really pay attention to bumper cars sometimes so sorry if this is a dumb question.

Plenty of parks have bumper cars with no divider in the middle of the arena. I would expect too much out of those plastic things though.
If you want a good set of bumper cars with no divider int he middle, check out Astroland's (the ones in the park, not the ones on Surf Ave).

yep, the ones inside Coney Island are pretty good, Cyclonic and I had a great time on them on Palm Sunday 2005. Although I have heard that if Astroland is very crowded and all cars are being used it could be a mob seen.
The dodgems at CP have no divider and are absolutely HORRIBLE.

MI bumper cars are also pretty weak.

Most of the Bumber cars in NE don't have center dividers.

I have. there are quite a few out there. the parks think the Center devider will keep trafic flowing and stop people from commeting Head on Colisions.

I was going to say you should get out more primogen. I think that I have only been on 2 with a divider. I guess you just have to get out into the world and get away from Knoebels
