IndyGuy4KI Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Now that IB has a new owner and things are happening around the park I figured we can have a 2020 IB thread to show the updates they are doing. Post your updates here! Midwest Coaster fans posted photos of Hoosier Hurricane being retracked right now. It looks like GCI is doing it right. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on their work on Legend, and how smooth Mystic Timbers is, I would imagine Hoosier Hurricane is going to run way better when it reopens than it did previously.

Kodistict Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 So glad this park didn't go, I haven't gone there and it seems like a really nice park that I would love to go to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Hope to hear some good reactions for the park when they reopen. Haven't been in years and want to go back but was always hesitant because of all the operations issues, was afraid to go and pay all the money and have half or more of what i wanted to ride not operate.

CoastersRZ Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I wonder where they got this ride from. The colors shown in the picture almost make it look like it could be the Flying Bobs that used to reside at Coney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JbGbat7 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I don’t think this has been brought up yet, but for who that has been in the past. They are bringing back the Flying Bobs this year.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. I wondered if it was that set, or they found the originals in storage somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
