| | Six Flags Fiesta Texas - San Antonio, Texas (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) |
 | | New to the Six Flags family in 1996, this park opened in 1992 as a venture with Opryland and as a part of the United States Automobile Association's La Cantera, a 1,620 acre planned area, including a golf course. |
 | | Designed by John Pierce & Associates and built by the Roller Coaster Corporation of Texas, this mammoth coaster is built around the sides of the quarry, including a tunnel through the quarry walls. |
 | | When the coaster opened, it set four new world records: the tallest wooden coaster structure (180 feet 6 inches), the longest first drop of any wooden coaster (166 feet 4.5 inches), the faster wooden coaster (73 miles an hour), and the steepest drop of any wooden coaster (61.4 degrees). |
