Did people think this coaster would open problem free? In fact I would say it has run rather well for such a radically new design. I can think of several that have been much worse. For starters, Volcano, Perilous Plunge, Stealth and Mr Freeze.
One of the reasons for holding off on building more of these 4Ds is not just to see how it operates, but also to allow SFMM to work out the kinks in the ride. Capacity is obviously one of those kinks.

Have you ever considered that maybe it's not the park that's the problem, but YOU?

Weird, everyone I showed my pictures to thought is was beautiful.
My friend Mary's reaction: "It's so pretty, it looks like giant Legos." :)

I see no reason why Arrow couldn't build a 100 ft. tall 4D at a reasonable price. What's your logic? I also don't think X is ugly, but there are a lot of ugly coasters out there, besides...
Oh yeah, and jsut because the track and trains are big doesn't mean they require a large amount of space. On the contrary, X, which may be one of the biggest 4d's we'll see in a while takes up a pretty small footprint.

people...am about to add some fuel to the fire but remember that all of this info has not yet been confirmed.
While talking to an AUstralian park the will not be named, on their new and much rumered 2002/2003 rides. It was leaked that the next big ride was only the second of it's type in the world and that it is a first for the southern hemsphere. It was also told, due to a slip of the tounge, that this ride would be a coaster. All my money is on a 4D as I have also heard that Arrow is talking to an Aussie park for a new project. Now with Six Flags rumored to be purchaseing WB Movie World, Wet'n'Wild Water park and SeaWorld Australia, and Dreamworld only just having finished the Cyclone that only leaves one major Park that has not been spoken for. I am praying that all this info comes true.
