Just casually reading an article about parks moving into Dubai and stumbled across what I found as a shocking statement.
"Six Flags promises that its Dubai park will have the world's tallest, fastest coaster."
Although we don't really know all that much about these new parks at this point, it is interesting to see that its believed Six Flags will be building the tallest and fastest coaster stealing the title from, themselves. And who said enormous coasters were dead at Six Flags?
Guess this goes to show that even without bugs there, the Six flags brand stands strong (and tall, and fast) as the parks for Thrill...
Also, I'd call this a DubaiLand coaster more than a SF coaster. SF is involved, but they won't own the park...to wit:
"There's no risk here," Shapiro emphasized. "They're launching a park in our name, which they're paying us for brand exclusivity. They're paying us to design and develop. They're paying us for expertise and know-how."
What exactly will they be designing and developing as far as the world's next tallest and fastest coaster goes? Other than drawing a rectangle on a site plan that says "coaster goes here."
