SFGam on August 2nd/Deja Vu update.

Hi, this is CoasterkidMWM. I went to Six Flags Great Maerica on August 2nd. My dad and i started off by heading to Raging Bull first thing. we went on in 45 minutes and it was a blast in the back, better then the front. Then we went on Viper, same story there. Afterwards we hit Demon and my dad and i had lunch. I investigated Deja Vu and all day there was nobody to found around the ride, i think the cable lifts aren't installed yet, the gate is still WELDED, and no sign of trains. afterwards we took the train over to the fairgrounds junction by Iron Wolf. While on the train, i was trying to look through the cacks in the wooden fence that hides the warehouse area of park. I saw something like a tube thats bright red, not the ugly "puke Iron Wolf red". Now im not gonna assume its track or anything, probably for mantience or something. my dad and i skipped shockwave because last year he cracked his skull when he was hit by a baseball and we don't want to have it broken again on shockwave. we didn't get a chance to go on iron wolf, so i wasn't able to see the area being cleared by iron wolf. Is it big enough for a coaster, or for a return of the Sky Whirl or just another flat ride? Anyway, we also saw the Sky Whirl disassembled and neatly stacked (I think a return is possible, or maybe they're selling it?). Afterwards we went on Vertical Velocity and it rocked, and then we went on the eagle. Piles of wood are stacked in the warehouse the u can see from the eagles exit, and also along the side of the red side close by the FINAL helix, not the helix bigger then viper, the FINAL one. Probably for mantience on Viper and the eagle, however the wood wasn't painted. not enough wood for a coaster though. Maerican Eagle also stopped at the for fifteen minutes, i wasn't in the train, i was in the station. I remember a few years back i was stuck on that for an hour and i kept hearing that they were gonna evacute the train because it up there for good, but as someone was walking up the stairs to do that the ride started working again, boohoo. Anyway, then we went on Raging Bull again and had to call it a day. Tall people, look over that fence to see if its what a pray it is!

I'm going to be there tomorrow on saturaday 8/4. I'll try and see if there is any red track around. I'll let you know.

You can keep commenting on his trip report, but I've closed the poll part of it. Wasn't necessary, wasn't related to the rest of his comments, and polls should be in the polls forum, not in the trip reports.

really sry about the poll, anyway, the track that i think i saw, (but might not have) is in the brown wodden fence between the train station by iron wolf and the train station by the entrace. Entrace to iron Wolf was the route.
