Six Flags has announced an agreement with A&E Network under which A&E is sponsoring rides at Six Flags theme parks and Six Flags is promoting the launch of the new A&E real-life series "Driving Force," which centers on 13-time NHRA Drag Racing Champion John Force and his three drag-racing daughters.
To illustrate the intense speeds that Force and his racing team attain
in their dragsters, A&E's Driving Force is sponsoring a number of Six Flags
thrill rides, including:
* Nitro, at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, NJ;
* Vertical Velocity, at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, IL;
* Goliath, at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, CA;
* Shock Wave, at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, TX;
* Medusa, at Six Flags Marine World in Vallejo, CA;
* Mind Bender at Six Flags over Georgia in Atlanta, GA
The Force family will also be making in-park appearances as well as
bringing their dragsters to select Six Flags parks during the summer. In
addition, Six Flags is promoting "Driving Force" via trailers and
promotions on Six Flags TV, its in-park television system, as well as
highlighting the show on its recently redesigned website, SixFlags.com.
