| | | Maybe you are a little behind the times, but X has been open since around Christmas time. |

Well, all new-ish coasters do have significant downtime in their first season, so it's still a concern I imagine. I wish I could go!

| | | Well, lets see. Had a friend from Ohio riding it on Thursday (5/23), and I rode it with some other friends on Friday (5/24), so I would say that it's open.
They were only running one train, but it was most definately open. It's possible that there may be stress fractures on the trains, but I haven't seen a reliable source say that yet. Only rumors flying around, including one guy that was insisting the coaster was closed and in pieces on a day that I was actually on it and riding.
In other words, don't believe the rumor mill. Wait to see prooof. Could be that they are just running short of regular parts right now due to Arrows impending bankruptcy and reorganization and they are having to wait to sort that out first (which wouldn't be the first time that's slowed repairs on coasters)

| | | If you haven't seen it in other places on the site, X is testing and should be open in the next week or so, if not sooner. You should be able to get your ride in on it in mid July with no problem.

| | | I heard it will be closed until OSHA tests it on either the 17th or the 19th. I'm planning on heading down there soon, too.
