Giant Drop This Year?

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

Is it just me or is Giant Drop using all of it's cars this year? From the pictures I have seen it sure looks like it. It's weird because I can't think of when the last time I saw all of the cars working on the ride, mainly the one that faces the park/Deja Vu.

Yeah, for right now all 6 cars are working, but I'd give it a while, now if it's mid-Late Summer and all 6 are still running, then we can all be shocked and take in the wierdness :)

I'm pretty sure that the car that was down last year was down again yesterday. I wasn't paying very close attention, though.
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer?
No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.

All sides were running when I went Sunday, May 2nd, and for physics day on the 12th. I was shocked too.
