I think a Zacpspin in Iron Wolf spot named Z-Force 2 or even just Z-Force would be sweet. Sort of similar rides and would be a nice tribute. But I'd rather get a GCI themed to Yukon Territory.

We have 3 yellow coasters? Seriously, this is how much I pay attention to the color of a coaster. Just go and ride it!!!

Why do people have to bitch about the small things!!! Did they ever notice that Cedar Point has 4 coasters with red track, 5 if you count Mantis. I don't see what the big deal is. If they are good thats all that matters to me!

PhysiX Day Educational 5/15
Six Flags Great America hosts the annual PhysiX Day private event on Tuesday, May 15. Be one of the first people to ride the all-new
X-Flight. X-Flight will be open exclusively for PhysiX Day guests before it opens to the general public. The PRIVATE PhysiX Day is open to physics teachers and students only. Please contact SFGAMspecialevents@sixflags.com for more information.

So not only is X-Flight not going to be open for opening day, but it won't be open for everyone?!

^ They've been saying for a while on Facebook that it won't open until Memorial day weekend, which is the usual opening day for their new rides. I don't really see what the problem is, it's on a tuesday, so the park won't even be open to the general public.

Speaking of IW has all of the track/supports been shipped out yet?
