Fun Spot America (General Thread)

Maybe this can replace the parking lot that's still in the middle of the park. Not sure how big that is though

Looks like IBox track

Huh?! Another new RMC in Florida?

 

[GAcoaster]

Wow, so Mine Blower is getting RMC'd now...



With the glowing reviews of AFOne in Atlanta, I'm not too surprised they're looking to upgrade.

Honestly no coaster in Florida should be wooden. I hope AFO pays off in spades for them because it's such a ginormous risk.

I wonder if this is just a straightforward retracking, or are they going to change the layout? Like maybe add a stall and outer banked turns. They could throw a lot into that tiny footprint.

But even if they just retrack it, it will still be a great little coaster.

And considering the reports I've gotten from friends of Mine Blower, it's really no surprise they're giving it the RMC treatment as MB has not held up well at all.

You don't need to be an insider to know it has "issues". The last time I rode it about a year ago it was already teeth chattering rough.

Mine Blower is the first and only time I got off a coaster and questioned my love for theme parks lol

Mine was Son of Beast and Mean Streak though I couldn't stay away from them. Still, I can empathize.

I’ve still never been on Mine Blower. I hardly ever go to Fun Spot Orlando never mind Fun Spot Kissimmee.

Only been once at each, and didn't plan on visiting ever again... until Mineblower gets RMC'ed.

Will say that White Lighting in Orlando is a pretty decent ride (pay the $10 and get out), and Freedom Flyer is something that should have been built at the WDW/UOR parks as part of a general kids area.

Freedom Flyer would work great as a part of a HTTYD land or even if Universal wanted to replace the Woodpecker coaster.

While I love their layouts, some Gravity Group coasters do not age well. Hades is reportedly rough (going off trip reports) and The Voyage felt rough to me as well a few years ago. GG's work on The Beast was fantastic, though. I don't know if they are upgrading their track anymore but they need to be just a little smoother. I don't want them to be the next CCCA or Dinn.

I guess Fun Spot is having issues with kids:

Fun Spot has new chaperone policy for anyone under 21

"We are preparing for increased attendance at our parks."

I know Aquatica had some kind of issue a week or two ago with some sort of online convergence in the park, I wonder if Fun SPot has had the same issue, especially since they have free admission.

It's a similar "takeover" event that they are prepping for (which is what happened at Aquatica).
