Do we know of any similar incidents with the two 4D coasters overseas? I’ve not seen anything.
Friends have said the only really “rough” area is the last ravine turn and going up into the brake run. Possibly this track could be redesigned. The real question is with Six Flags sitting on massive debt, MM not doing the attendance/profit it once did, and the extremely high operating costs of X2, will this all culminate in removing X2? Personally, if I were sitting at the CEO’s desk I’d probably pull the plug until the park can justify having such an expensive ride.
