    Thanks for sharing this info Katie! Definitely need to make a visit to Cedar Point as I’ve been wanting to for years. While the issue with the wheel cracking is concerning like you said, hopefully Zamperla CAN figure out the engineering kinks in the trains so riders can safely enjoy this ride. I wonder if CP could also afford to collaborate with Intamin on the trains too just in case as they were the original manufacturers and could probably help Zamperla be successful😄

    I still say the original Dragster was sabotaged by a Six Flags employee pretending to be a maintenance worker. Reason being is that Six Flags hated that Cedar Point was more popular than them, so they built Kingda Ka , but they noticed that it wasn’t as popular as Dragster so they sent someone to tamper with it. The accident happened, someone got hurt, and then Cedar Point and Six Flags merged. Coincidence? I think *NOT!!!!!!!!!!*

    I think people are blowing this way out of proportion. This is basically a new ride with new technology, prototype trains that have never been used before.
    Just because Zamperla hasn’t done this before doesn’t mean it’s a concern at this time. For example car manufacturers that have been making cars for decades have recalls on cars all the time. When you have a ride with this much new technology and complexities, it will need time to work out the bugs.
    Give Zamperla a break! Obviously they lived up to the challenge and developed an awesome ride. Let nature take its course and let’s see what happens.

    I think this whole new project revamp was a joke. I called it from day one when they announced they were going to recreate a reimagined Top Thrill Dragster that they were going to have a lot of maintenance issues, yet apparently they forgot a guest got severely injured in 2021. God forbid, they could have died and if I was that woman I would have sued the park and cedar fair. How many people is it going to take to get injured or die to finally shut down and tear this ride down for good? In my opinion, they should have just tore down the entire structure, made a special plaque of some sort and used that space to build another record breaking coaster that was not going to hurt anybody else but oh no we have to have the biggest, baddest and fastest coaster there is, thus the infamous roller coaster wars.

    • @KatiesCoasters
      @KatiesCoasters  2 місяці тому

      Fair enough, I can see what you're saying for sure... Though I do think that Cedar Point realizes how iconic of a ride this was for the park and that they need to have it re-open in some form. Unfortunately freak accidents can and do happen, but I trust that the Cedar Fair and Zamperla professionals will take their best care of this ride for years to come. After all, most rides do have break downs early on in their operation lives, but as Top Thrill 2 is in the spotlight, everyone is watching this attraction non-stop.
