Kingda Ka, The tallest and fastest coaster in the world is according to the Six flags site and other fan sites down over a major breakdown. Rumors have been going around about what happend. From what people on forums are saying it may be awhile before it opens.

Yeah, I saw this a couple days ago. Apparently the catch car or something crashed at top speed. I saw the report at www.coaster-net.com

Wow this ride sure has alot of problems? I wonder what the fate of this ride will be?

Word has it, someones cell phone may have got caught on the catch car.

It's set to be Renamed Son of Beast II. <G>

^ LOL I was thinking alot the lines of The Bat II. Son of Beast doesn't even have that much down time when it's actually up and running.

is there a specific link for that article?

I don't like how the ride is a copy of TTD, and the down time the rides can have, They should make them tall rides a LIFT HILL instead of a launch that need more power than a space shuttle!

It's really not a copy. although the concept is alike the ride experience is different from what people have said.
