If they remove the go-karts. I think that would be a good spot for a family coaster, a couple flats or another kids' area. Something that would draw more traffic to that area



Perhaps you can do your usual magic and show us what rides can fit in Go Karts plot?


Or you could y'know... go back in time

If it were a family coaster, something like the Sierra sidewinder at Knotts, only longer. I think that would be a great addition to Yukon territory

Sierra Sidewinder is a good coaster... I feel like it is too intense for families, but it always has a lengthy line (capacity plays a little into it) and I see plenty of younger kids maybe 8+ riding it so who knows. Cedar Fair only bought the one and it was nearly 20 years ago

I'd rather see a Road Runner themed Family launch coaster if they decide to add a modern family coaster

Isn't it basically the same as a Pandemonium?

Something like quantum accelerator at Six Flags new England? That could definitely work.

I didn't want to double post. So, I made this edit. I just realized. Great America already has a custom coaster built for Mardi gras hangovers plot of land. Patriot at Californias Great America. :lol: It probably wouldn't work because it would be way too close to Batman. But I would rather have that than a stupid loop

That cover thing too i think is used for backstage stuff so i don't think think they'd remove it either

It's interesting. Because Vortex (Patriot) was originally built to interact with triple play, the train, etc. Sadly, Californias Great America removed all those attractions. But I did a quick photoshop and you can see how it originally interacted with them.
