1).The Great Escape and Resort-New York State
2).Six Flags Great Adventure-Jackson,NJ
3).Six Flags Over Texas-Arlington,TX
4).Six Flags Fiesta Texas-San Antonio,TX
5).Six Flags St. Louis-Eureka,MO

I know Six Flags St. Louis just added the Skyscreamer but in your guys blog you forgot these other 4 six flags parks who could also have a thrill ride or an attraction in 2013 or 2014? What kind of thrill ride or attraction any of these 5 parks above could use? Give me your prediction of what kind of ride each 5 of the parks might get.

I could see a Looney Toons Land overhaul in the near future for SFoT.

yes I think i could see that but Six Flags Over Texas thing with them is that they don't really have anymore room for expansion so what's going to happen with new rides and adding stuff for SFOT? What about Six Flags Fiesta Texas? It's pretty much the 2 texas six flags parks that could use something. How about The Great Escape in Lake George,NY?

- The Great Escape is getting a slide complex in 2012
- SFGAdv is getting a flat ride package (including a star flyer tower) for 2012 plus they got Green Lantern in 2011
- SFOT got a major Texas Giant upgrade for it's 40th anniversary in 2011
- SFFT is getting a Star Flyer in 2012
- SFStL just got a Star Flyer

So looking into the future...

.SFGAdv is a flagship park which means that they'll consistently get big additions over time.

SFStL might get a major ride soon though. The park seems overdue for a steel coaster.

SFOT and Great Escape seem set for now. Nothing too big in 2013, or 2014 might see something for either.

That leaves Fiesta. I'm seriously thinking Rattler might be the next coaster to get Iron Horse treatment.

^Rattler probably would be the next Six Flags coaster to get the Iron Horse treatment. After all I've heard about its roughness and that shortening of the drop height a while ago seriously would make it a good candidate.

Say it's so! I would be so incredibly happy if they gave rattler the iron horse treatment. Not to mention the potential elements they could add (like the extreme overbanks on Texas Giant)

This is a question to the Texas members about SFFT- How much of the perimeter does that HUGE quarry wall extend? are there any other areas (barring the parking lot) to expand?

From what I can gather, they own everything inside the red.
Also, the blue line is the cliff.
So, it looks like they have quite a bit of land over to the right.

well the question is SFOT is located right between Cowboys Stadium and Rangers Ballpark..so that's what I mean yes it is in a very very tough location to add something new and expansion. Unfortunately what they might have to do is take out a big roller coaster like Titan or Mr. Freeze which I highly doubt. And they just finished Texas Giant so I don't know what SFOT has up their sleeve in the near future. They could really definitely use a brand new coaster that has'nt been built....but where that's the questions, Hurricane Harbor in Arlington they can add new stuff because their is room their. So SFOT future looks a little cloudy right now,not sure how they are going to work this. 2015 might be their next attraction and new most likely not relocated I suppose. SFGADV could use a drop tower ride or a Splashdown Ride like Perilous Plunge or Pilgrim's from Holiday World? Just an idea I don't know maybe you guys think something different. Will they add something in 2013-or Great Adventure will wait for 2014? Six Flags St. Louis yes they can use a new roller coaster..what will they add, and The Great Escape definitely can use a new thrill ride or coaster.
