    Sounds like it isn't anything to do with the ride. Could be BS but heard it is being delayed due to not having the LED lights on the front car.

    It was primarily two reasons. Precision was needed on the lift hill to maintain the track gauge to very low tolerances. The second reason was aesthetics for the turn around the lift hill to maintain a similar look to the original ZZ for nostalgia. It wasn't really much to do with wear and tear.

    RMC just tweeted this too: Looks like June 2 it is. I really wasn't planning a trip to PA this summer but may have to.

    Haha, yup! I wonder if WoF was angry at GCI for posting a POV and asked for it to be taken down.

    It's a once in every 14 years thing for Worlds of Fun 😉

    According to the blog, the track circuit is complete. Don't know if that means all track work or what but June 23rd seems really far out if all track work is complete. https://www.worldsoffun.com/blog/2022/zambezi-zinger-construction-live-blog-final

    While it's disappointing that it appears to be delayed, here's some ZZ porn... If these transitions are taken with any speed at all, this will be pretty snappy

    They're doing something to me but it is not good. Would've been better if the entire zero car was a wildcat head kind of like the rattler on Iron Rattler or the alligator on Iron Gwazi. The cat breaking thru the wood just looks cringe.

    Yeah between the ground clearance and this tunnel that looks like it is going to have the clearance of Beast's tunnel... Cannot wait to ride though as it looks fantastic. From Facebook

    Per the blog, on February 8th the mid course tunnel construction began. https://www.worldsoffun.com/blog/2022/zambezi-zinger-construction-live-blog-final I have to think that if this thing is to open with the park on April 8th that track work and heavy construction will be complete sooner...

    Best / Worst Queue and Exit Layouts for Coaster Marathons

    I guess I like Steel Vengeance's lockers. If I'm marathoning, I'd just leave my stuff in the lockers for a two or three laps before checking my stuff and renewing a locker... I usually am down to take a breather after three laps on it to save my thighs anyway, ha! That said one bad one for...

    Had a post typed up last night but ended up deleting stating Safari Tours was going to be like Miami River Lumber Company, Area 72 or Outpost 5 or probably most similarly, Jungle X-Pedition at Kings Dominion. While it still isn't Disney level theming, Cedar Fair seems to have stepped up its...

    The thing that I keep going back to is the Infinity Flyer train. No reason for Worlds of Fun and Cedar Fair presumably to have purchased the presumably more expensive Infinity Flyer train over the Millennium Flyer train if it was going to be a family coaster. But, at the same time, I want a...

    As a fyi, that Steel time includes the fabrication. Once on site construction starts, the time to construct a steel coaster is a matter of months. This is probably favorable for the WoF coasters timeline too since the "track stack" will be pre-fabricated vs being constructed on site.
