SFOG said that the bumper cars are leaving. Today is the last day. Some people are saying it could be for a Battle for Metropolis ride.

[RollerBee]

Alittle early for a dark ride in my opinion especially to remove a small ride like Bumper Cars.

[coasterbruh]

Never too early and makes more logical sense for that area, being it is metropolis park and all.

[Edwardo]

How is it 'early'?

[Jarsh]

Maybe they want to actually open something with the park instead of Memorial Day?

[Edwardo]

That would be nice lol.

Anyone notice the land work next to I305 at KD. I'm hearing rumors that some track was spotted at the B&M factory in Ohio and speculation at this point has it possible going to KD,but until I see more than just land clearing/bulldozing I'm not buying it since we've ended up being disappointed before.

Maybe I'm the only one who is late on this, but did anyone else notice that 6Flags is building parks in Dubai and China??

[coasterbruh]

we all knew . . .

[gabed]

Don't understand why on Earth they'd want to build not one, but two parks from the ground up. Cannot imagine how expensive that will be. Granted they are in good markets it seems. But still, don't see why they don't look for other options for expansion such as purchasing other parks.

Ouimet's got the best plan in my opinion: Focus on your undersized parks first before rushing to build a new park from the ground up...

EDIT:

On another note, it appears Hershey has begun teasing for an upcoming attraction in 2017 on their Instagram page.

EDIT #2:

According to NewsPlusNotes, Six Flags is looking to expand into Saudi Arabia as well as Vietnam. Goodness this is going to be a lot of money.

What parks could they purchase in Dubai and China? I assume they are using more or less slave labor and probably getting some sort of government incentives too.

[Edwardo]

All this is is a licensing (and potential management) deal for Six Flags. They're not building, nor will they own the parks.

[Jonathan]

Oh so they might actually be good then.

Rumor has it KD's Hurler might suffer the same fate as Thunder Road did- removal due to structural problems.

What good fortune for them.

If it's true then I wonder how much of an outcry there will be about it. I suppose time will tell.
