Sounds an awful lot like the classic Six Flags pitch before they RMC one of their wooden coasters... Sooooooooo, goodbye Great American Scream Machine?

Mind Bender at SFOG is pretty great Check out my WIP thread Currently working on Thunderbolt, a second generation Schwarzkoph.

Probably not, the layout is just a typical wooden out-and-back, don't think RMC could do a lot with it.
I would probably consider Mind Bender the safest qualifying ride at SFOG. While I haven't visited the park myself, my brother (who lives in Georgia) says it still gets 60 minute waits on a somewhat regular basis. It would make very little sense to remove a ride that is still that popular.
I talked with a couple people yesterday who really know the park and the common speculation is that it is either Thunder River or Splashwater Falls that is going, with almost everyone agreeing that it will not be a coaster. As next year is a big anniversary year for the park, it is expected that they will be getting a very big roller coaster and it is necessary to begin work this early for it. What type of coaster? Well, Six Flags is reportedly building the prototype RMC T-Rex at one of their parks next year, and while I don't know that it will happen SFOG seems like a pretty good candidate for the ride.
Coaster Count: 535 (114 wood, 444 steel); Park Count: 110 Top 5 Wood: El Toro, Voyage, Thunderhead, Outlaw Run, Boulder Dash Top 5 Steel: Superman the Ride, Fury 325, Millennium Force, X2, Intimidator 305
^ Um since it's imitating the original Cyclone layout, I don't think that they'll make it into a RMC style. RMC won't touch most "ACE" woodies, IMO. Correct me if I'm wrong.
