Great Gasp will prolly be removed and parts sent to SFGAdv or SFOT since they have the remaining ones in the chain, my bets are on SFOT, since we just received the Excalibur Mine Train cars from Frontier City who had them in storage since it's removal from Astroworld .. what to do with 4 mine train trains? Parts of course

^ That or Carowinds.

 

Carowinds: Land of the used rides. lol

 

I hope someone buys it. I'd hate to see it trashed.

 

I'm soooooooooo glad I rode it in April when I was down there.

Thats too bad, I have some great memories from the Great Gasp, at one time it and the Dahlonega Mine Train were the only things I would set foot on.

I do hope it's saved and not just scraped for parts. I really like those rides!

 

It was one thing to take out the Intamin Air Race for an Intamin Drop...but taking out another Intamin ride for a B&M Hyper...not happy!

Interesting .. I would think they would call it something different but wouldn't be surprised if that was the name, SF isn't known for being very creative lately afterall.

A coaster named Starship? I can see the music that will play in the queue line...

 

"We built this city, built this city, we built this city on rock n roll!"

 

Why can't it be Superman: The Starship?

 

Posted

LOL^ I agree with GAcoaster, "Starship" is probably just a mix up between the Looping Starship and the new coaster. Unless it is a project name.

Posted

I think it was the news people that got their information wrong. Six Flags is replacing the Looping Starship with a ride called starship?

LOL on the first part.

 

Superman: The Starship? First of all, that sounds more lame than just Starship. Second, they already have a Superman at the park. Third it's not in the "Superman" area. If anything it's closer to Gotham, so maybe another Batman themed ride.

^ I assume he wasnt being serious about Superman:The Starship, he was poking fun because superman like to use Superman: Blah Blah for alot of different coasters.

From http://www.screamscape.com:

 

2006 - Goliath - Under Construction - (8/24/05) A teaser sent out to the local media (thanks to “brkgnews”) seems to have given away the name of the new ride... Goliath. We also received what looks like the possible plans to the new hypercoaster placed over some site images taken from Google Earth. One shows off the likely placement of the layout over a photo of the real site while the other shows a size comparison to the GASM to try and estimate the length of Goliath. The official press conference is scheduled for September 1st.

 

At least if they are re-using a name, it's for a coaster of the similar genre. Not like the old days when Viper at one park was an Arrow multi-looper and a woodie at another.

WOOT!!!! I can't wait, I'm excited, I wonder then if it will be orange...

 

RCDB now has it posted as well, I have been looking for them to add it.

I thought Goliath at SFMM was the most boring hypercoaster I've ever ridden. I hope SFOG's Goliath is a lot better!
