ALL FOOTERS COMPLETE? It appears that all footers have been dug as all large equipment has been removed from the site. All that remains is some concrete pouring it appears. Front Entrance has had some additional demo work done to prepare for 2025

Today Six Flags Entertainment Corporation announced major new plans for 1 billion in capital investment into the parks over the next 2 seasons! This will include new rides and park improvements with 80 million of that dedicated to food and beverage upgrades.

Just a quick update today. High winds in the area and I wasn't able to stay up long with the drone, but as you will see in the video they are really moving quickly to get all these footers in the ground before the ground freezes over during the winter months.

Six Flags Great America General Park Update August 31, 2024
I,ve only ridden Oblivion,Alton towers,Griffon and Sheikra.This looks a real nice colour,can,t wait to visit in June.
Rise
I will be very sad if it runs like iron menace... b&m used to be quality but iron menace is a disappointment so i hope it doesn't ride like menace
5:41 such a cool shot! I didn't think about how close it gets to that other midway as well as Demon
Still can’t believe they’re fitting a coaster in there.
I’m just hoping this new coaster won’t have the same fate as The Flash: Vertical Velocity at Six Flags Great Adventure did as well as Top Thrill 2 at Cedar Point. I doubt it will, but you never know with Six Flags.
Well at least, if they delay Wrath of Rakshasa’s opening day by a year, it will be open on the year of Six Flags Great America’s 50th anniversary.
Praying there is no rattle
Really hope this coaster is smooth
It’ll be fine, don’t let a single jolt destroy a ride for you.
from what i’ve heard, construction is ahead of schedule thankfully. like you said in the video, i’m also curious on why some footers have been slept on. that’s just weird 😭
Does B and M have a phone number I can call about that shake. I'm wondering I'd they even know about it
They're not gonna respond to you lol
Love my Sasha
Awesome video B&MGuy35!!! I'm glad to see the lift hill going up!!!! I'm not sure if the entire thing will be up in one week, but I'll be surprised if it is!!!! It will change our skyline forever once it reaches 180 feet!!! I can't wait to ride this thing next year!!! I've been wanting a B&M Dive Machine at our park for many years and now we're getting one!!!! :D Anyway, great update and thanks!!! Keep up the good work. NRG / BEAMER3K / TwistedSTEEL666
i think they will be finish and let people on around agut maybe July but idk so that i think but how fast they going it so but how your new year went my was good
It will be interesting to see how foot traffic flows from Hometown Square to County Fair. Looks like a possible choke point between the Demon and Rakshasa.
I was thinking the same, but my guess is that they’ll find a way to create a few offshoots from the central route to a ride plaza. However they pull it off, there’s bound to be some major interaction with the ride.
my guess about the remaining turn piece into the block is that it looks like they couldn’t drive the crane out if they placed that piece. maybe they’re waiting until they can move the crane from the middle area?
it’s really easy to sound out. No joke. Rauk-sa-sha
Forget the voucher i wanna meet you!
I am starting to get worried that it’s going to get delayed to late 25 instead of early 25 comparing other coasters that have been built at other six flags park for 24 that most got delayed I feel like wrath of rakasha will be getting a delay
@@edgarplays896 Take The Flash at Six Flags Great Adventure as an example of what I'm about to say. Most of the coasters were delayed because of how late construction began Though with Cedar Fair now in charge, we'll see if "Rockjigslaw" gets delayed
Thanks for the update!
I hope you have a great day! Thank you for the videos.
@@causaloak4577 Thank U
Love the colors!
I love you Chicago coaster guy
Following the footers for the final turn, it looks like it is going to be super forceful.
It crazy it doesn't look like enough room for the sation lol
I'm a little bit worried that this will have the recent B&M shakes or whatever they are called because a video of Rapterra testing showed the train bouncing along the track
Same...especially after seeing the Rapttera test footage!
Thanks for the great videos!👍
Glad you like them!
At last, Wrath of "Rockshuzaugh" has begun lift hill construction, REJOICE
YAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLBBBBBBBGGGGGGTTTTTTEEEEEE W
It gets funnier every time…

I heard someone call it wrath of rokahshah
VERTICAL LIFT HILL CONSTRUCTION:D wrath of verticallifthillshasa
I was in an engineering tour at six flags with my school’s physics club a while back and saw the construction from afar. They told us we weren’t allowed to take photos which I thought was kinda funny since I couldn’t even see that much.
with weather in the 40s, I cant see how they would pause until Jan, I think we will see a ton of progress while the weather is ideal for outdoor work!
Looks like they did pause and started work again today
They are really squeezing this one in!
Merry Xmas from a native Chicagoland who grew up with six flags and kiddieland( also Santa's village and another park not worth mentioning ) let's do a season pass holders meet up when the park opens
This is a great idea!
You mean Great America? "Six Flags" has meant many different parks for decades, now 42 I think. If you grew up in the late 90's up until fairly recently, corporate marketing tried to make it seem like all parks were the same with the same name Thankfully, that is going away. Great America wasn't designed, built, or operated to be a vanilla amusement park, but I can't blame you if that's what you grew up on. Santa's Village has done *a lot* in the past ten years or so to bring back the feel of the original park, which closed down. They now have Santa Springs (a small water park) and a Magical Christmas drive-through event with some other activities. Also, they are expanding back into their former footprint with the Polar Dome and surrounding area which was originally part of the park. Kiddieland was sadly lost to inter-family fighting. Thankfully Great America saved their Little Dipper, and several of their historic rides live on today at Santa's Village.
Good update B&MGuy35! With the holiday's going on I figured we wouldn't see much progress being made on the construction of Rak. But thanks for checking!!! Keep up the good work!!! I look forward to your next update!!! Cheers.
I cant wait to ride it! Only like 4 more months
@gibbyfromicarly6519 If Wrath of "Rakschligzaw" opens as planned on Memorial Day, then we still have to wait 5 more months actually
Hopefully. Six flags generally is known for delaying their new projects. Remember maxx force? Got delayed by over a month in order to conduct more testing etc. and even for the soft opening and launch day landscaping wasnt completed. Their known to rush things for sure.
@@Anthomemes 🤓☝
@Sonic-gy7kq I need to stop using that word... That aside, how old are you to be using such silly emojis?
This is a huge update
Wrath of "Rocksantaclaus" is going to be another supporting coaster at Great America in my opinion, not as good as Goliath but not bad at all
In my opinion, Goliath isn’t very good.
@@VincentRamirez1672 Your opinion isn't valid. Goliath is top 3 in the park and will blow this POS middle of the pack dive coaster out the water despite being 10+ years younger.
@@Sonic-gy7kq Statistics don’t change personal preferences. I get why Goliath is popular, but for me, it just isn’t my favorites. Its just a personal taste for me.😁
wrath of rickschlongus is looking good either way
@@Sonic-gy7kq Disrespecting opinions much?
I’m the first person to see wrath of rakshasa #22
Wrath Of Rakshasa will be surpassed by the new B&M Dive Coaster coming to Six Flags Over Texas in 2026. Word is the SFOT version could be a Giga.
Wrath was intended for SFOT and our park had gone so long without a new coaster they moved it to Great America. The Giga Dive was meant to be ours for the 50th anniversary. At least that’s what I’ve been told by insiders….
@chicagocoasterguy This doesn't really make a lot of sense. Maybe I'm wrong, but I've heard that SFGA has height restrictions whereas SFOT does not. SFOT already has a 408ft Skyscreamer so a Giga Dive shouldn't be a problem. But even so, SFGA should STILL be able to build a 200ft plus Dive Coaster.
@scifidude1 Great America height restrictions have been greatly exaggerated. I’ve done research on this. Anything over 200ft needs approval from the zoning board. FAA height restriction for the area is close to 500 feet. And STT is 330ft
chicago coaster guy is a blessing to humanity
Great video! Just let me know once they start retracting American Eagle. 😉
thanks how much trains there will be when there no brake run so 2 maybe 3 if there but about the main enters of the park is they finish with it?
I’m curious to see what size crane they bring in for the lift hill. The top sections and drop usually require a heavier duty crane due to weight and size of load. Watch Timelapse of Yukon striker, valravn. Those had a pretty large cranes to assemble the top of the lift and there isn’t a ton of room for a crane that size.
when do you think the lift will go up? In the next update?
I know it will obviously fit but the clearance for the lift hill over the break run almost looks too small lol
It’s an optical illusion from being so high in the sky and looking down at it. They’re not even close to each other. In one of the other angles you can clearly see that.
With Iron Menace, they did remove the trains for winter maintenance
They're probably going to convert 'Demon Snacks' into a gift shop/exit for Rakshasa.
Awesome update B&MGuy35!!!! It's good to see the continued progress on the ride's construction. I'm glad that most of the footers are done right now. I'm happy to see that the lift motor has been installed. I can't wait to see the lift hill going up soon. Great update as usual!!! Keep up the great work!!! I look forward to your next video update.
Wonder when they will take the cover off the County Fair Games sign?
Thank you so much for posting these! X-flight was the first coaster construction I followed from start to finish and we certainly didn't have drone footage available to us then. Cool to watch Rakshasa go up this way.
I can't believe how slow the park is this time of year
You know its a good day when you open youtube and find a wrath of rakshasa update
