Would you rather:

B) Get repainted
C) Get new trains
D) You don't care about Iron Wolf
E) Both B and C

I vote for C.

E.

There is no space for a good coaster there anyway, if they get new cars with softer restraints (which we all would love) and maybe a little more sleek looking, like mantis style. Also a repainting would be nice, a bright red or something flashy along with more comfy restraints would be a great revamp for the ride.

Maybe even a whole new theme, faster loading times could help. Taking it out won't solve much.

well considering i LOVE Iron Wolf I would have to go with E....... I don't think they will ever take it down because wasn't it the first ever stand up looping coaster??? plus it was featured in a movie and what not. So I'm hoping it will stay!!

I'm surprised people are still going on it. I was in such pain right near the end of the ride I promised to never go on it again until new trains are installed or I find out they want to remove it. Seriously, something needs to change in 2009 with IW it will be its 19th anniversary in April and it deserves some serious TLC. Remove IW from the Flash Pass and it gove it to Viper or better yet AE. Not worth it.

they should just get new sleeker trains like the ones on chang, riddlers revenge, mantis etc. and also some new paint could do some good

E thats simple, a new paint job would look it look alot better, and they should be running B&M trains on it not Intimin trains. Geez six flags show some B&M pride!

They really need a different kind of harness on that ride because of how rough it is. The restraint should either be made of softer padding, or be closer to your head so your head won't move around and bounce off of the harness so many times. If your head can't move on the ride, your head won't hurt at the end and it will be a lot more enjoyable.
