If I'm not mistaken, I've heard a few pieces of track are taken off of Whizzer during the off season, for rehab. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
If the crane was by demon then I would think that they are putting a demon train on the track.
David you are wrong. Remember, there's nothing but air beneath the chair.
If there was a dedicated flash pass row, I would never buy a flash pass again.

Just drove by SFGAm around an hour ago. Giant Drop has one of its cars back on the side facing Demon. The other ones still just have the catchcars at the top. Big news of the day is Condor. There was a crane next to the ride.
Took that photo and then went around one more time on my way back to 41, and looked in and saw the top half of the tower in the air.  So I turned back in and got a second photo, though by this time, the tower section was on the gound.So whatever kind of rehab they are doing is definitely major, even back in 2005 when it was closed from September 04 until July 2005, they didn't remove anything from the tower.
I pass Great America on my way to school every day, so I noticed that.

Hmm..
That is quite weird. And only 30 days before opening day, they're taking it a part? Maybe Shapiro thought they said LESS flats. lol
Perhaps it is being taken out. Hopefully it comes to Gadv.
 
NO!
^^Need any help moving it there lol
All we need is another empty spot in the park. Ah hell.
It was already at Great Adventure.
Really? Maybe they were just replacing or fixing something that needed it...
...no, I bet they're just removing it now. That makes more sense. Top 5 wood-5-Goliath 4-Ravine Flyer II 3-Phoenix 2-Voyage 1-El Toro
Top 5 Steel- 5-Velocicoaster 4- Maverick 3- Fury 325 2-Steel Vengeance 1-X2 Coaster Count: 444
...Removing Condor?! I would cry. That's one of my favorite flats in the park!
hmmm... new blog: http://www.sixflags.com/national/footer ... sblog.aspx
"And, yesterday, my boss sat in on a meeting where Mr. Shapiro asked the Head of Ops to look into a package of flat rides for Great Adventure. You GrAdv dudes sure are vocal about what you want." Condor "removal" a coincidence? Let the speculation begin. "I've been told that some part of every wish will be heard but lately I lost sight of the truth in those words."
What the hell is this. Please excuse my anger, BUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! A few of GrAd fans complain about a lack of flats, and Shapiro says, BOOM, here you go! If any of us Talk to Shapiro about our park, lacking some aspect, Shapiro would say something along the lines of, "We have a master plan here, and we need to focus on in-park spending. Families. Marketing. VALUE. VALUE." Give me a God Damn break. If Condor is removed, I WILL BOYCOTT SIX FLAGS. MARK. MY. WORDS.
Go complain somewhere else. Because it is all about the VALUE, Six Flags wants people to feel like they got a bang for their buck. This way people will want to visit the park over and over again. "I've been told that some part of every wish will be heard but lately I lost sight of the truth in those words."
Condor to GADV again? Can't see it happening. I really hope this doesn't happen, Condor is one of my favorite flats!
Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

^^ But sadly, it isn't value. If I can get a slice of pizza for $1.50 and I have to pay $9.00 at Six Flags, SOMETHING IS WRONG.
^ Pretty sure you can't get a slice of pizza for $1.50 at a Cedar Fair park either
^ Yeah you can.
Im sure there would be quite an outcry about this though. Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

Lucky for you: http://www.facebook.com/SFGreatAmerica? ... 0803746355 "I've been told that some part of every wish will be heard but lately I lost sight of the truth in those words."
Maybe for the very first time in recent memory they will have all the lights working on it and it will look halfway presentable at night. Or paint so it also looks presentable during the day, though I think I'm asking too much. And in my continued fantasy they can give it a real program and not have it continue to be a glorified observation tower
 Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder
Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073
The program they had on it when it was "The Birds" during FF was a decent program.
Thank god it's not leaving SFGAm, because now dave won't boycott!!(like anyone would care or the park would miss him) I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
Six Flags also said they were installing Bonzai Beach at KK, and look what happened.
 Im very glad its staying though. Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.
