Someone else go.

I'm to lazy to scour the depths of RCDB for a good image to crop.

I already know it, I am just waiting to see someone else get it. This one isn't overly difficult.

It wasn't meant to be very difficult, and any hint would kinda give it a way. So here's another pic and a little extra hint, Six Flags intended to purchase a bunch of these.

It's on the tip of my tongue. I know what it is, but I just can't remember.

I can't remember that I've seen anything coming by that looks like that. I know a bunch of bobsled coasters, but those are all still exisiting. :lol:
Too bad Six Flags never went for more of these. It looks extremely fun for what I can see on those 2 pictures. :)

Would have been a lot more fun if it worked. Surprised no one got this yet.

guys it's Arrow's '70s Flying Turns prototypes. SF contracted Arrow to make them in 5 parks but upon having difficulties with the prototype and cars they elected to go with Intamin instead.

Yep, and that's why we only have family versions of bobsleds to. No ones tried a more extreme version since.

The layout looked pretty fun, but...

...From what I can tell, it probably worked just about as well as the Bat did. They couldn't get the swing well controlled and the trains may have rolled a few times.

I think I would mistake this for another similar woodie. Kemah's Boardwalk (spell)? ;)
