Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.

It seems as if Screamscape is reporting this very story, but the HP website also has taken out all ads and such advertising Turbulence. Interatice Rides said they have ehard nothing of the such and they are continuing fabrication. ITS A CONSPERICY! :cry:

It's just a mistake that has gotten out of hand. If the manufacturer doesn't know the ride has been canceled, then most likely it is not canceled.

Actually, RCDB.COM has removed it from the new for 2005 section, and Hershey Park's website makes no mention of it as well. seems too me that the project was scraped

Its officially been scrapped...

Also HP has filed a lawsuit against the manufacturer. Manu. blamed steel prices and wated 1.2 mil over the 2 mil budgeted for the ride...

That would be pretty disappointing... Having your park announce a new coaster, only to cancel it. :(

Maybe we'll see Six Flags scoop up a few of those coasters. They do look pretty fun, and don't take up much space. Yet the capacity isn't too good.
Finally Coaster Season!!

The ride will most likely never be built anywhere because I don't see how Interactive Rides can possibly survive after this lawsuit.

What kind of ride was it supposed to be. It seemed like it would be one of those half pipe coasters.

That is the Frequent Faller. Not too much like a 'Halfpipe'.

That seems like a stupid ride. It's good they are cancelling it.
