Is that Ozark Wildcat?
That is the level of fight I was hoping Thunder Road would put up.
Rest In Peace
GCI wooden coaster.

Those guys need a lesson in demo. I don't even think they tried to cut the track or any of the supports. Now they just have a mess on their hands.

Explore a NEW land full of Dinosaurs in 2016 with over 20 giant, moving, roaring, prehistoric creatures taking over Wild Adventures. Gaze up at the life-size brachiosaurus standing over two-stories tall, go eye-to-eye with T-Rex, the king of the dinosaurs and try to outsmart a roaming raptor. These gentle herbivores and fierce carnivores will only be at the park for the 2016 Season, all included with a 2016 Season Pass!
Get your 2016 Season Pass TODAY to save up to $20, get up to FIVE Bring-A-Friends and to experience the dinosaurs in 2016 along with over 50 rides, Splash Island Waterpark, hundreds of animal friends and 15 All-Star Concerts!


What a complete let down (for me anyway). I did enjoy my visit to this park a few years ago. However for me to return I need more than a smaller version of Dinosaurs Alive! to get me in the gates again. I'm sure it will be a hit with the intended target audience. It is more family oriented than the thrill parks I generally prefer going to.

I think this will fit in really well with the park and its safari theme. It looks a little weird here at Carowinds but it makes sense at Wild Adventures. What they could really use though is a Chance Hyper GT-X.

This picture of the coasters at the front of the park is just awesome. I just love Cedar Point. You can certainly see Valravn's lift hill to the far left and Raptor's new paint job is very nice. Also here some pics of the top of the lift and start of the turn for Valravn. At first I hated the colors but I like them now. (photo credit: coasterbill & DoinItForTheFame ).

It's also customary to post a link to where you got the picture vs screen names.

Or rust, which I believe is what the color is called.
