I just got an email from Six Flags telling me that tomorrow, May 4th, is coasters after dark. The park will be open to season pass holders only from 6-9pm.

I'm going. Who else will be there?

48 coasters and counting!

I was going to go but it looks like it is going to rain so I am probably going to the park tomorrow morning instead.

Just a few quick notes.

-The Twister definitely has a new program. it now only inverts 4 times. It closed around 7:30 and I was on the last ride of the day. I've read reports saying Fiesta Texas's top spin has a new program too. Supposibly, it doesn't invert at all. I really hope Great Adventure goes back to their old program.
-The Green Lantern was running great. The ride ops were also very fast and the trains barely stacked. Superman was the same way.
-We made our way to Bizarro only to find then only running 1 train. We waited 25 minutes.
-El Toro's crew was also great.

Ride Count:
Superman-1
Green Lantern-2 in a row
El Toro-3
Bizarro-1
The Twister-1

At park 6:30-9:00

48 coasters and counting!

Weird that Bizarro was only running 1 train when earlier in the day it was running 3 trains.

The Twister is over ten years old. I doubt they are going to have the same ride experience from 99. I remember when rides were like over four minutes long. Now they are barely 2 minutes :(
