I was told by an employee in 1998 that SFGAm would be getting a 200ft tall coaster the next year named Silver Bullet. He was right about the 200ft coaster part, but the name was saved for a B&M built quite a few years later.


Don't you mean the Dipin' Dots vendor? They always know these kinds of things...

That would make a lot of sense if they named the two V2s Superman Ultimate Escape to go along with the name of the now defunct coaster at the once-called Six Flags Worlds of Adventure.

The only thing Shockwave would have attracted to Great Adventure were masochists.

Actually, if I were to guess, V2 was to be named Superman to possibly retheme Yankee Harbor to something with DC Comics.


Well, that's my Two Cents.

^If that's the case, I'm glad they didn't go along with it.

To add to the cancelled, they are NOT going to remove the water ride next to Chiller anymore....
RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter :(
