I haven't been on it since it opened! Who loves it or hates it? #Post#: 2479-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: Mrceagle Date: July 29, 2020, 6:42 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I don't love or hate it. Even with the update, Which made it a lot better, it's the overall layout and ride experience is avarage. It's a classc and its a fun coaster. But overall is just that. #Post#: 2495-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: dellice45 Date: August 10, 2020, 3:53 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Thankfully open but I am sure at some point that thing is coming down within 10 years or so #Post#: 2496-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: Mrceagle Date: August 10, 2020, 5:01 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Why would they bother to rebuild the lift, buy new trains, and retrack the entire coaster is they simply plant to tear it down within 10 years. They could have fought to get the budget to replace it and form what I heard the idea of replacign it completuly was tosed aroudn then. #Post#: 2501-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: depotrat Date: August 10, 2020, 6:37 pm --------------------------------------------------------- They spent more money to fix this coaster than what it would have cost to tear it down and replace it with a new attraction. There is no way this coaster is going away for a long long time. #Post#: 2504-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: Mrceagle Date: August 11, 2020, 2:00 pm --------------------------------------------------------- They obviously see value in keeping up the region's oldest coaster and one of the oldest coasters still operating in the US. #Post#: 2516-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: dellice45 Date: August 19, 2020, 1:44 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Yeah they have spent alot of money. Its just so unpopular and painful that at some point they may have to cut their losses! #Post#: 2520-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: depotrat Date: August 20, 2020, 4:28 am --------------------------------------------------------- Unpopular with enthusiasts but the GP rides. It doesn't have to be painful. Just stay off the axles! LOL #Post#: 2521-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: Mrceagle Date: August 20, 2020, 4:07 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I actually waited longer for wildcat then I did for Phobia. #Post#: 2616-------------------------------------------------- Re: Wildcat By: dellice45 Date: November 11, 2020, 11:13 am --------------------------------------------------------- I just skip it now as no matter which seat I sit in I find it a bit too painful for my liking! I am sure there is more work to be done on the coaster but there needs to be some reprofiling on some of the corners ***************************************************** (DIR) Next Page
