      Absolutely. Looking at other six flags parks, we are extremely lucky to have the collection of coasters even if they are only 3000 feet long. Some parks are lucky to an s&s free spin.

    I have to ask, Airtime Thrills, will you be heading back to Busch Gardens Williamsburg anytime soon? I'm not sure if you've heard since last year, but Loch Ness Monster is opening up in May from an extensive refurbishment that has refreshed portions of the old track for a smoother experience, added 900 feet of brand new track, and added brand new theming elements that hint at apparently getting to actually see the monster on the ride in some form, seemingly in the mountain!

Like why SFGAm lol it makes sense but as an enthusiast since I was born (legit been to this park since I was 3 w/ season pass)... were very spoiled. Only difference between this and dragster is that dragster was much longer and more intense, but this is a very close second. Hydraulic is more rough acceleration while air is smoother.
