This is the first time that I have heard of this so I guess that six flags built the tunnels that they do and did have with out permission ex.look at tea cups there is a shed to the right of the tunnel that goes under the table to maintain the ride. Also rodeo had one as well there used to be a shed in rolling thunders ride area next to the lift the tunnel went under vipers q then under rodeo its self. So I do not see why they can not have tunnels the only thing that can stop them is budget and water the water table.

They started pouring concrete in october iron workers have to wait atleast 30 for the concrete to cure or until the concrete that has been removed by an inspector has been slump tested ( they take samples from every truck let them cure then break them measuring at how much psi they break at) they only got this ok on dec 31 that is only one of the reasons the other is it is a low budget job

they have 4 more supports and 5 more sections of track and the lift will be topped out. so the lift could be done by Friday if the weather holds out if not early next week.

i just found out that the yellow track is for where the tunnels where going to be, however there will be no tunnels it will be more of a cover/roof. that means there will be no cool theme as it was all cut like every other six flags coaster. el toro opened really late mid June the first train ever ran was sent on June 3 and the second train was on the transfer but not assembled yet. witch was the best day ever b/c i sent the train out!

I used to work at the park and I am freinds with a lot of management of the park as well as maintenance. And also being a union worker I have freinds on the job that told me the job is low budget so that would be the reason why it looks behind. When ever it snows the parks landscape crew dose a good job at cleaning the park as well as all work areas, so snow really will not have a big effect.

I would have to say it will be running early to mid june.

I wonder if they are going to remove all the low stuff and just knock over the lift all in one piece and chop it up on the ground. If they take it down piece by piece it may be unsafe to keep parachutes and twister open during lift removal do to how close it is to gasm. Six flags has used explosives before to take down rides. Its quick and easy. And i would love to watch it!

There was nothing wrong with gasm at all. The park has tons of spare parts for the ride. The blue train was just redone and everything on it is brand new. The park had new lift motors and evrything. And there is nothing wrong with the structure of the ride. There is only one reason why this ride is being removed and that is through put. And as for the park not having any flats that is true. The park has more kids rides then it has coaster/flats and every year the flats are comming out. It is sad to see a major park that dose not have bummper cars. Music express. Swings. I worked at the park as an rides supervisor for 5 years and not having flats hurts the park alot. When i worked there there would always be 14000 + people in the park at a time now they are lucky if they hit 14000 in a day. When i worked there there was more rides and shows and every thing was packed. Now there is a lot less rides and people and every thing is still packed if they even did a good day every one will complain about the long lines. This park needs flats and they need them bad!
