Enjoy Circus Circus while it lasts, it was just sold yesterday to Phil Rufin, the same man that bought Treasure Island and got rid of the Pirate show. Not saying he will get rid of the Adventuredome, but he is known to tighten the belt of the proprieties he buys.

Salt Lake City has an EXCELLENT zoo that you should check out. Park City is very close with some great hiking.

The one and only I ever rode was the Huss Enterprise at the World's Fair in New Orleans, La back in 1984

^ I really need a like button for that comment Robb!

From my visit to the park yesterday. It was brutally hot, btw.

Goudurix has similar inversions! This seems much smoother though!

They had just over 3 weeks for the build out of their entire booth(including the ride) for a show that lasted 4 days!

So...what will the new theming for Apocalypse be?

I like what Screamscape is saying, in that its going to be a MACK racing coaster. That could be pretty KICK A$$!

The trains have been completely over-hauled several years back. The coaster still rides pretty much the same way it did when I first rode it back in 1998.

The waterparks here in Vegas have been open since mid April or earlier...and we are never warm or hot in April...usually the 70's. So, the parks in SoCal have no excuse not to be open.

^Not true. The Phantom and the Phantoms Revenge at Kennywood were created and modified by two completely different rollercoaster companies. Arrow designed the original coaster and Morgan came in an replaced most of the track with their own, creating new elements. It can and has been done.

The Zephyr, Pontchartrain Beach Zephyr, Jr., Pontchartrain Beach Mega Zeph, SFNO Texas Cyclone, AstroWorld Collosus(both sides), SFMM Apocalypse, SFMM Psyclone, SFMM Giant Dipper, Belmont Park GhostRider, Knott's Berry Farm RollerCoaster, Lagoon Twister 2, Elitch Gardens Cyclone, Lakeside Zingo, Bell's Nightmare, Joyland Blue Streak, Conneaut Lake Park Zippin Pippin, Libertyland ....thats all my woodies, but I do have 214 steel coasters under my belt

The lift hill from the former Rim Runner(boat ride) will be re-purposed into the lift hill for this new mine train coaster. It will be compact, and it will interact with the Canyon Blaster as well.
