Very n00by question. Arrow went bankrupt after building X and got absorbed by S&S.

I'm a pretty big Arrow fan I guess. I liked Viper a lot. [Despite headbanging] I also want to ride The GASM. Arrow coasters are cool in my opinion.

I thought Arrow went out of bussiness because SFMM sued them for the maintanance problems with X, not just with building and maintaining X itself.

my favorite ride out of arrow was their suspended coasters. BBW gets easily to 90 degrees on that final drop. its probably one of the most intense turns i have gone through. maybe some other company can take the idea and make it better... B&M? ;)

I actually like some arrow rides, especially Viper. Sure they're not overall the best, but some of the rides are pretty cool.

^No, we're talking about 'X' at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, CA... the world's only 4D coaster.

Since you are called nemesis junkie, i thought you would have been to alton towers alot. Then you would know there is no such ride at alton towers. X no way out is at thorpe, black hole is at alton. [;)] well it isnt anymore, black hole has just closed this year.
