Chang - Final Report

Chang (the B&m standup coaster that origianally operated at SFKK), will now be moving to Six Flags Great Adventure, Which is a surprise because many thought it would be moving to SFOG, or some other Six Flags park.

Correct me if this is old news....

SFOG has half decent stand up. I think you mean people thought it was going to SFA.

I wouldn't trust RCDB on that, especially because they also said it was going to SFGAm. However, I still belive it is going to SFGAdv, apparently a local news source reported an "exclusive first look" at the new coaster with a ummm... NoLimits editor top-down view of Chang's layout in GASM's old spot. Apparently they're tearing out some parking spots for the lift and drop.

It WAS going to SFGAM and they pulled the plug on it with new management. There are pictures of Chang pieces in the SFGAm parking lot all over the place.

True. But who know what the love they're going to do, it's Six Flags.

So Chang will be in place of the Great American Scream Machine?

They switched management, otherwise it was set to go.

My only comment is that for a thread with "Final Report" in the title, there seems to still be a lot of discussion going on . . .

It's not officially confirmed, but it's obvious it's going there.

I'm surprised SF would have even thought about sending it to GAm because they have a stand-up (an old one, but a stand-up) and SFOG Has one too. GAdv hasn't had one since Shockwave if I'm correct? I think it's a good fit for GAdv. I wouldn't be surprised if these reports are true.

Also, I think prior to looking at that RCDB page it only said In Storage, not Under Construction. Anyone hear anything about a press release?

Way to link exactly where coasterpimp linked. It's like you really didn't find it on your own!

They even reported on Chang in Chciago newspapers. Now SFGAm's PR department needs to play the "heh just kidding" game.

Actually it is where I missed the link while reading all the other posts.

They used No Limits to simulate the ride, & I must say, someone did a GREAT job.

^Finally a green lantern themed coaster. I know it's recycled, but I am happy they are using a green lantern theme.

Looks like it's gonna be pretty cool.

Edit: Wow...I find it really funny how everytime someone uses NL to do a new ride...it sucks...the transition from the loop into the dive loop is absolutely horrendously attrocious (as is my spelling). [sillyme]

Yeah, they did much better than what I've seen of ckmwm's recreation.

Still sore that you can't accurately recreate something and he can? Get over it!

Wow that was crappier than the NL recreation of Kennywoods Skyrocket...
They should hire some of us too build it better...

Is funny cus it's true!

Will this be the largest collection of B&M's in one park?

Batman, Nitro, Bizarro, Superman, now Green Lantern...so that's 5...I think it would be.

Yup. One of each type minus the Dive and prototype.

lol, gouldy you're terrible at No Limits. Stop being jealous noob.
