Does anybody know what became of the Whizzer "Speed Racer" at PGA? Did another park buy it?

I don't think anyone bought it, they just took it out. See for yourself http://www.rcdb.com/installationdetail726.htm

Yep, it's the only one of it's kind in the U.S. But the condition isn't that great.

Hehe, Flashback, you notice two of your top 5 were at some point at SFGAm?? Come over here, we will welcome you... but it's just not the same without Sky Whirl. WARNING: Whizzer is like closed every other day.

I went to SFGAm like 18 times last year and like 10 it was closed for "maintenance"

Edit: It SEEMED like it was closed a lot. But I don't know exactly how much it was closed. Sorry if I was 'lying' I didn't know I was.

I am a Whizzer-o-holic, I hate Marriot for letting that ride get so bad it couldn't be saved. But In all honesty PGA isn't the same either, we lost triple wheel to the Invertigo (ironic isn't it) it now sits beneath stealth in pieces. And for the Stealth we lost the beloved Yankee Clipper, anyone know where it went?

Yeah, we lost Sky Whirl to a Super Invertigo:( Thats weird that it sits under Stealth now.... thats kind of sad. They probably just took out the Yankee Clipper and it is in storage somewhere. Remember, we welcome you to SFGAm where you can still ride the Whizzer and the Yankee Clipper :)

Last year, in the first months of the season, Whizzer was closed for a while. But near the last half of the season it was operating normaly. But when I rode Whizzer this year, it just wasn't the same as before...
