Thanks guys. I hope this means a good future for Renegade.

^So do you think Roar is just rough because of the upkeep at Six Flags?
-
I am just wondering how well GCI's age. I went on my first 2 GCI coasters this summer, Renegade at my homepark, Valleyfair, and Roar at SFDK. Renegade was butter smooth, buy Roar was as rough as an Arrow or Vekoma looping coaster. Is it because Roar is 8 years old and Renegade is not even a year? Or could it be that Roar is at a Six Flags park where they don't always have the best maintenance, and Renegade is at a Cedar Fair park, known for maintaining rides? Someone please tell me because I don't want Rennie to get rough in 3 years.

Yep, this is the only one of two BEEMERS to be relocated. But both of the parks they were both in closed, other wise they would still be in their first parks. Some park in Japan and Geauga Lake -

For people who are going to say, "Well that went down fast, I knew that CF didn't decide this last week", Thunderhawk and Dominator were going to move no matter what happened, so this was probably planned during the summer to have those rides dismantled at the end of the season. The other rides you see are parts that could have very well be decided to get rid of last week. -

I forget the resterants name, but if I am thinking correct the one with the 4:40 drinking, wasn't that right next to Sancastle Suites. If so, how bad was your service. That was one of only two things that pissed me off last year at CP. It took 2 hours to get a Pizza Hut pizza ordered there dining in, and there was only about 10 other parties and 3-4 waiters or waiteresses. The other thing was them not allowing me to put my glasses in my pocket on TTD, forceing me to get out of the 45 minute line I had waited in before the ride opened, giving them to my dad and waiting another 45 minutes to ride. And then the next day, the same people let me wear them on the ride. Other than that, I had a really great time. -

Well, there goes my chance of visiting that park. Even though it doesn't look like a very good park, I still wanted to visit it. -
Here are some more construction photos, this time from Alan at CoasterCravers.com You can really see that they are moving fast. Part of Ripsaws helix is dismantled for construction in that area. Mystery Mine and the Old Time Photos are totally gone and they have ripped up the enclosed part of Gohsat Blasters Que and Entrance. I am sorry the Pictures are so big. Can someone please resize the photos? What is left of Mystery Mine, Old Time Photos

That's weird because I was there 3 weeks ago and that was one of the cleanest lines ever. BTW, SFGAm's Batman was pretty disgusting, including the "scenery".
-
Um, the log ride is on the other side of the park from where theEuro Fighter is supposed to go. The Euro Fighter is going by the old Mystery Mine kind of by Ripsaw, Mighty Axe, and the dark ride, which will probably be rethemed just like everything else in the park. I am kind of wondering what Timberland Twister will be re-themed to.

Here are some pictures from Thrill Network.com of the construction. They also mention Ripsaw closing for a few months so they can remove some track to build some of the rides where the fountain once was. They are also going to paint it and redo the station and trains. Spongebob on top of the Moose on the log shute What was left of Mystery Mine as of last week.
