kennywood park getting a coaster or what

You guys are so clueless! Here's the REAl scoop-

Jack Rabbit-replaced by a B:TR clone

Racer-replaced by a boomerang

Thunderbolt-replaced by an SLC

Phantom's Revenge-replaced by an S:RoS @ SFDL clone

Exterminator-replaced by an Impulse

Say hello to Six Flags Pittsburgh, ladies and gentlemen!

Not quite: Boulder Dash goes to Idlewild, Rollo Coaster goes to Kennywood, Racer goes to Compounce, and Drachen Fire, which was secretly bought in a deal with the BGT monorail will be put in the ravine.

And in a surprise move with Disney, Mickey will be running for his little rodent life in Exterminator

On other matters... the comment above that said Steel Phantom was "never supposed to leave." Ya know... I think Racer, Thunderbolt (formerly known as Pippin) and Jack Rabbit have history going more for them than the 10 year old Steel Phanotm had. Also, people still line up to ride Racer, Thunderbolt and Jack Rabbit. From what I understand (and from what I saw during a visit in 1999), I don't think the same thing could have been said for the old Phantom.

Kind of hard to take a post as objective if a park or coaster name is part of the "user name"

Yeah right like kennywood would be replaced by a six flags yeah right the only ride that would be taken out of kennywood would be hmmmm i don't think any would b then i was wrong about the phantom

Dorney Park visits in 2002: 17

i am 14 how about u

I don't think we could make it any more plain, either.

Steel Phantom -- don't worry, Racer isn't going anywhere. Kennywood won't be getting any new coasters for a while, but they shouldn't be losing them either.

I don't want to be rude, Steel Phantom, so let's just say I'm 37, you're 14, and that says a lot about both of us.

A big thing is gonna happen for next years mermorial day when kennywood opens because of the whip accedent and i think that instead of a new ride the whips building will be repared i will keep u posted cause i no some one who paints and builds things at kennywood in the off season. did u no this every year the gum wall gets cleaned and all the coasters get a new paint job

Steel Phantom: Read the TOS. Proper spelling and grammer are required here. If you want people to take your posts seriously, try to spell out whole words, etc.

Any idiot that would think the racer is going anywhere can indeed be termed an idiot. One reason nobody mentioned was that the Racer does use some terrain. Not as much as the JR or the TB, but still to a point. And SP, don't mention that the Wave Swinger or Swing Around won't be moved, because there actually is a high chance of them being moved.

the swingaround can't be moved cause the building would have to go with it and old poeple (like my grandma love that stuff.

The Swing Around could be moved, just like the Monongahela Monster was before it.

Dude, careful about asking him about X parties, you never know what you might get yourself into.

Ok, I'll stop before his goons give me a proper beat down this weekend.
