Good to hear that Viper has a new home, even if I doubt I'll ever see it or get to ride it.

If anyone here hasn't seen sfne.com's photos of SWAT's arms sitting in their parking lots, I suggest you look at them, [URL="http://sfne.com/index.php?cat=updates&id=9"]http://sfne.com/index.php?cat=updates&id=9[/URL].

Less than two weeks. Geez.

It also amuses me how they crammed Diablo's rafts under Swat's arm. That's a little lame if you ask me, but I guess time's a-wastin'!

Good for SFNE. Have fun with those rides, I know I did.

From the FLCC coaster conference, this is what we were told was confirmed by one of the publishers of Amusement Today-

Greased Lightnin' is for sale
Ultra Twister looks like it might survive and go to Darien Lake or Six Flags America
Serial Thriller is going to Great Escape, though I've also seen reports of it going to SFFT. He said GE though (which means I need to fix a post I made on another thread about it)
Cyclone is basically scrap, although he said they are using parks and some of the hardware to build a new cyclone at SFFT. It WON'T be the same ride, for a multitude of reasons, but will be based on the cyclone and use some of it's parts.

So at least that's what someone from in the industry who might know is saying.
