Has anyone ever been to this park? If you have, what did you think about it? I think it could use that Hypersonic XLC ride for sale.

Yep, been there, love the place.

The park makes intelligent choices for capital investment, which rules out Hypersonic :)

the locals seem to love flat rides, the park has one of the best assortment of (domestically made unfortunately) flat rides anywhere, and now they are starting to add some Euro Flats, the people there eat that stuff up.

I think the Dragon will eventually be removed and replaced with another coaster, probably of a similar type. Either that or I bet they get a spinning coaster of some type in the near future to keep the the spinning theme :)

Hell even their last water ride is a spinning raft ride where if it's weighted right, it can outspin their Chance Rotor any day of the week, twice on sunday :)
