SFNE gets mouse coaster from Kentucky Kingdom. The height of 50 feet, and the length of the ride screams Kentucky Kingdoms Road Runner Express! On top of it, they say 17 hairpin turns, and unexpected dips.

Six Flags Parks 2011 thread
"I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
I can say that this was extremely last minute and I'm not happy with Weber. I guess he doesn't know what he's doing. We already have a fricken mouse!
No season pass for me, I have no reason to return to the park.
^SFGAm has two (Dark Knight & Ragin Cajun) and is a much bigger park so it isnt too surprising. At least it takes a few people out of the Bizarro line!
 Bizzaro (well SROS since I havent been on it since the change) is my #1 steel. I wish I was closer than 900 miles away from it.
Wow, wow, wow! Just wow. You come on here and tell us we shouldnt be complaining about not getting Chang and how we should be happy with our park. Your park gets a crappy addition too, and who complains? Doesnt feel so great does it? Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

^Its actually the exact opposite Cole. We all thought Weber was going to be smart because he canceled Chang from coming to GAm because it would be pointless. Adding a low capacity Wild Mouse, to a park full of all low capacity rides already, except for Bizarro is bad enough. Plus we already have a spinning mouse. He just cut the 2011 addition because of cost.
And we (not ALL of us) thought Webber was a idiot for removing Chang from a park who could use a new thrill ride at a cheap cost. Looks like mind about a guy can quickly change after he gives your park a bad addition.
Six Flags could have had a big, CHEAP, succsesful anniversary if they would have just stuck to the agenda set down by Shapiro. Gam gets Chang Gadv get flats SFA gets the mouse SFNE, SFOG, and SFStl gets a Dare Devil Dive coaster clone. (not sure) Texas Giant Rehab Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

Eh, I don't you weren't entirely right on the list but you were pretty damn close and right and they would have been successful.
I don't understand the changes Weber had to make. They're extremely last minute and unneeded. All the parks could have gotten something. The mouse should have gone to SFA because it's much more deserving and in need of it and would accept it more. SFNE, like GAm needs another high capacity ride. I feel for you guys right now. Weber, right now, is not my favorite. I really wish Shapiro was in charge still. They company would still be good. All the changes he makes suck.
If Shapiro had his way there would be a mouse in that spot right now anyway
Exactly. Welcome to our world. Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

No there would be two or three 
I really wish either Marriotts or Time Warner was still in charge. Someone with some money. That Premier buyout will continue to haunt us for years to come.
What I would have done with these additions is that:
Texas Giant be junked. SFOT gets Chang-- For the first Six Flags and a big park, it only has one B&M, and this would have helped the park a lot I think, get more attendance. SFGAdv and SFMM gets great flats, and not just from SFKK. SFStL, SFFT, and SFNE get the Euro Fighter SFA gets sold - lol SFOG gets the mouse. SFGAm gets a dark ride. (added). In 2012, SFGAm gets a Euro Fighter. "I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
Texas Giant has been there since 1990 and probably would not be junked or moved anytime soon. Also, its a wooden roller and they should saty for the time being, my opinion of course

"...From the rooftops, shout it out..." CP Trip July 27-29 My Top 5 1.Maverick 2.Millenium Force 3.Top Thrill Dragster 4.Raging Bull 5.American Eagle (both)
I don't agree with your Texas Giant statement but i agree with the rest
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom home page says "There is something big coming your way in 2011". Any guesses? Giga Possibly?
 Can't live without Coasters!!!
I won't lie. I kinda forgot Discovery Kingdom still existed.
No. Definitely not.
They have a 150ft height restriction. Their V2 was chopped & modified.... & creative they were with that one(I like it) So the new ride can't be that "huge".
I say they get a Hurricane Harbor waterpark. I mean this is Six Flags we are talking about after all.
Your probably right. There the only park (besides SFGE) that doesnt have a waterpark. Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.
Coaster Count: 167 (41 Wood, 125 Steel) @Coaster_Cole on Twitter
There is no room. The park only has 138 total acres to work with including parking. The only way they could put in a waterpark would be to get rid of the animals. I can't see that happening at this point.
Oh so Splash Water Kingdom isn't a water park? What about the Great Escape Lodge and Indoor Water Park? SFDK, I don't see getting a full on water park for 2011. I'd say animal attraction or another Eurofighter.
^Great Escape has a waterpark.
Don't be hard on the guy / girl. He just was thinking of parks that don't have a watepark, and he thought Great Escape didn't have one. No big deal. "I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
SFNE DOES have a waterpark! A real themed one too! Its right against the Dark Knight(batman floorless)! Wow. Haha. I think SixFlags Mexico doesn't have one though...I neglect that one in terms of knowledge yet its somehow a "dream park" of mine. SFMx is really nice actually...no for real it is.
I'm not trying to start another argument, but the latest rumors are that Gadv will get a "War On Lines" type year. You can read about the original Gadv "war on lines" in 1999 at http://greatadventurehistory.com/WarOnLines.htm
It is just a rumor though
