I did see X-Flight recline on the lift a while ago. And X-Flight and Batwing are totally better made than Stealth. They have personal computers on the back of the car on every car. Does Stealth have this?

I heard test track is more complicated then the computers used to launch the shuttle! I can see why there are problems.

X-Flight. Some people were stuck on the track for 30 minutes in the heat, roasting like baked potatoes.

Check 1, Check 2, Reclining. X-Flight"



If I am not mistaken, Test Track does at least 65 mph. Word has it that a car flew off the track during testing, crashing into the building complex. I'd say that is a malfunction that they did not want to happen once the ride opened!!!

The Jet Coaster

When I was at SFA last Friday, GatorWoodie and I waited 2 hours for Batwing to reopen after it broke down. It was my first flying coaster and the 2 1/2 hour wait was worth it!
