Any rumors you've heard about Six Flags over Texas introducing a new roller coaster for 2013? A friend of mine works there and said they were removing Flashback to make way for The Green Lantern. Don't know if it is one similar to the Green Lantern (standup) at SF Great Adventure, or The Green Lantern (steel-4th dimension) at SF Magic Mountain.

Good one Evan. It's too bad that I just went to that park last year. I don't see myself going back to San Antonio for a while, but The Rattler has so much potential. I'm excited for it's overhaul.

As a NJ native I hope the Morey's Pier one is true!

Would be great to have an epic coaster on the shore, and connecting piers? Awesome. Sadly, it seems the least likely

I already have a goal of Magic Mountain and CP in 2013 (the latter I go every year when possible) so bring it on!

Thanks for sharing the Outlaw image. I saw a similar one on Screamscape a few days ago. In the next few days we may see something pretty ground-breaking. This is very exciting!

The Outlaw/the ride that's just an illusion , is my number one 2013 coaster, and this link (http://midwestinfoguide.com/silver/project2013/06.27.12/index2.html) is one of the many reasons, the pictures show what appears to be at first a n overbank that wasn't built right, but if you look closer, it may just be a Zero-G-Roll on a wooden roller coaster! And what is shown of the layout just looks AMAZING, plus I'm guessing that it'll be at least 4,000ft long if not at least a mile. SDC and RMC are going all out on this ride, and i like that, plus the mystery of what happens in the valley is also intriguing. But it then goes SW7 at Alton Towers, which has ALL of the planning documents pubic and should be in the 2013 list on RCDB,the compact layout and many twists and turns looks fantastic, but just doesn't measure up to 'Outlaw', then comes Full Throttle, mainly because the layout hasn't been shown yet. oh and the White Lightning picture is outdated since the layout has been made more thrilling, plus wood for the CGA woodie has appeared on site, so it's not a rumor anymore.

I went on both Congo and Nitro last thursday and didn't see any new clearing back there, and I don't really think Bizarro will be leaving anytime soon as they spent all that money to retheme it just a few years back. Besides, Green Lantern is still fairly "new" so I would be (pleasantly) surprised if a sizeable new coaster were built so soon.

Speaking of new roller coasters, me and my friend were at six flags great adventure. We were on Congo rapids and nitro and saw a good couple of cleared acres. We were wondering if they were going to remove bizarro or what would happen in 2013.

The Morey's Piers one looks like a tribute to the Boston Big Dig! Hope it moves faster.

Thanks for mentioning that Prof. BAM. Nothing on Scream Scape yet, but Valleyfair Zone has some scuttle. This is especially helpful as I was trying to decide between Valleyfair/Nick Universe versus SF St. Louis. Maybe I'll go with SF STL this year and go to VF in 2014.
