I honestly hyped zamperla is putting so much effort into building coasters. I cant wait to see what they can do

Gone are the days of not making it over the top hat! This ride was crazy to watch in 2003 when it opened. We used to stand and watch to see if the train would make it over the top or not! They did so many relaunches in the early days of the ride!

[@cltcoasters]

It flies over the top hat now!

Solid vid dude! Yeah the new dragster looks solid but agreed, the new name is horrible 😂

[@koltenharti7692]

I honestly don’t care about the name bc it’s just a name I’ll honestly probably still call it dragster when I’m talking about it

I love everytime someone says a ride could have been better.. yea... any ride can be better... there's no limit except space and finances.
It still is pretty expensive for everything that's being done. I bet it's between 8-15million.
However, this isn't a complete new ride so I am curious what the next ride ground up will be.... hmm..
And the name- I originally thought TT2 was cheap but then after thinking, it's completely appropriate.
It would be a mistake to have given it an entire new name since half the track still exists from TTD.
Naming it TT2 tells the public it literally transformed TTD to what it will be by using existing track and elements.

Imo, it's a massive downgrade from the original. They could have done more with the layout instead of LSMs and a spike. They just did the bare minimum and chose zamperla because it was the cheapest option.
