Remove rolling thunder i hate the idea of adding a drop tower to kingda ka!kingda ka should be the spot light if udo add a drop tower,make it at least 100 feet and in movie town.nitro and batman have been doing all of the work in movietown and i think they need help.bizarrois fine add a tiny wing coaster and that section is good.add a new section behind kingda ka not taking away eltoro,kingda ka,bizarro,andnitro’s spotlight

Removing Rolling Thunder and adding a Maverick style ride is a great idea. But I highly doubt it would be demolished. El Toro is in the vicinity.

Adding a drop on Kingda Ka is plain stupid or safety reasons. The whole area is a hard hat area because pieces were flying off the track during the 2005 malfunction. The base of the tower houses the hydraulic launch systems. Touching them would further deplete the unreliable ride.

GA should refurbish Movietown first with adding more flat rides, shows, games, and attractions. Once that’s taken care of, then deal with Rolling Thunder.

I couldn’t agree more! Check out my post to Cedar Point’s Facebook page on my idea in utilizing the TTD tower structure. A 400′+ drop ride would be great, but wouldn’t you rather see them utilize that structure to build a taller coaster maybe coming from the opposite direction back by the Mean Streak? B&M is in the process of developing a launch coaster, and if there was a manufacturer that could make something taller than TTD/Kingda Ka its B&M. Proper bracing on the structure would be a factor, but that’s what engineers are for. The project would have to realistic in investment as well, but it can be done. All of that without removing any coasters tying them up with SFMM at 17. Also would bring out the island’s potential and poor utilization of space. A Nascar themed Intimidator 505! The Nascar themed trains would initially launch at a pace car speed (60 mph) on a gradual incline over the Gemini midway where it would come to a height of approx 200′, the white flag is out and we’re off with a speed burst launch to speeds of 90+ mph in seconds. The trains would climb vertically up the back left corner of the TTD tower structure (left corner standing behind TTD), exceeding TTD’s height by 85′ after making a slight twist. The trains would then make its descent toward the ground, hopefully with a more traditional drop (no twist) making a Nascar banked turn on the edge of the island (along Iron Dragon and Mantis) wrapping around the edge of the island. Eventually coming to the worlds tallest second hill (camel-hump) going over part over MF’s pretzel loop structure. The ride would then drop to a straight away through the checkered flag, and back to the station. The beauty of this is how it doesn’t take from TTD’s unique thrill/theme. Love to see the entrance over the railroad tracks by the Mean Streak entrance.

I hate drop towers. I’ll ride them, but would much rather do coasters.

Rolling Thunder to me just seems at this point to be dull, lurchy, and noisy. If they rehabbed it, that would be so nice. I used to love it when I was younger.

Although they could get rid of Rolling Thunder and put a little Maverick style ride there…now THAT would be something.

Why cant six flags take a page from cedar fair and do what carowinds and kings dominon have and will be doing rebuilding over a long time there classic racers i know the popularity wouldnt be great still but what else could they put there the drop tower would have a ridiculous walk or a really weird que like american eagle at six flags great america. It certainly would be fun however
