Rattler to be removed from SFFT

Six Flags Fiesta Texas has announced the removal of Rattler. No replacement has been announced, if any! Some think the ride will get the Iron Horse treatment and be rebuilt. But, those are just ideas. Rattler has operated since 1992, the same year that the park opened. Rattler has gotten rough over the years. Get your rides on Rattler now!

Disaster Transport removed

After 26 full years of operation, Disaster Transport will be removed from Cedar Point. You will be transported to Alaska for the last time on July 29. Not only that, Space Spiral will also close. But closer to September. These two removals will bring the count up to 3 with Wildcat being removed earlier in the year. There is a rumor that a large B&M Windrider will replace the two. But, that's only a rumor.

Gwazi Rumor

There is a new rumor that Busch Gardens Tampa is talking with Rocky Mountain Coasters about retracking Gwazi with some Topper Track. Nothing has been confirmed yet. Last year, the park added GCI Millennium Flyer trains to Gwazi. While it did wonders for the ride for a while, lately, it has gone back to it's rough form. Gwazi opened in 1999 and is the only wooden coaster in the Busch Gardens family.

Coaster of the Day - 4/29/12

This the first Coaster of the Day! I'm going to start out my personal favorite ride..... Intimidator 305!!!! Intimidator 305 opened in 2010 and is the tallest roller coaster on the east coast. From the top, you look over all of the Richmond area and all of Kings Dominion. But, that's short lived. Before you know it, you are plummeting toward the Earth at 90 miles per hour. If that isn't enough, you're starting to black out on that first turn. Twisting and turning at 90 miles per hour for 3 minutes is insane. It will change the way you view coasters, forever.
