trick track charlie Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Does anyone know why the back car of Flight of Fear has been closed? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbum123 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Its been closed since one of the launch motors burned up earlier in the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 There were two incidents this season involving smoke. In the first, a motor was found to be emitting smoke; it was turned off and the ride re-opened a few days later. In the second, smoke was coming from electrical equipment outside the building. The back car was closed off after the second incident. It's my understanding that this was done to reduce the peak load on the park's electrical system. A lighter train allows for less power to be used during the launch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoddaH1994 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Purely speculation, but I'd be willing to bet that it'll be back next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
