Was just at Great Adventure the other day, and while Chang (Green Lantern) looks like a fantastic ride, they put it where Scream Machine used to be: next to the parking lot. It looks very crammed into the space. I don't go to Great Adventure for the charm of it, but there were so many places that it seems like they could've put Chang that would have been better. However, it does have a very cool black and green track, and it appears to be huge. I'm excited for ERT for pass holders next weekend.

Chang means Long in Chinese. I read it in a book. http://www.thecoastercritic.com/2011/01/contribut…

I agree, wholeheartedly. Chang is one of only two stand-up coasters that I found comfortable, fun and re-rideable. (The Georgia Scorcher is the other one.) I hope they take care in its move and reconstruction in Jersey

I put "Chang" in the chinese box on Google translate and it said; "Do you mean 厂?" I clicked "yes" and hit "Listen". It sounded alright, so I translated it, and the "English" box said it meant "Plant."

Chang in Thai means Elephant. I don't know what Chang in Chinese means! SFGreatAdventure is lucky to have one of the best coaster lineups in the world.

Err… oops.

I've never ridden a stand-up, but the layout looks like a lot of fun.

I had just been talking in a chatroom, so I was sort-of stuck in the "type as quickly as possible" mindset. Sorry about that.

I heard Kentucky Kingdom intends to add a new B&M when it reopens.
