Six Flags SC?!

called it...?

1993

It's early 1993 and the grand opening of Six Flags South Carolina is only a little over a year away, and work on the park has really taken off over the past couple of weeks. The folks working hard to get the park ready have graciously allowed me to visit the park to follow the progress. Here's what's been happening this week.

- Joe Martin


I was told that Heatwave will be repainted yellow and green and will be renamed "Viper."


The new green color can be seen in this shot.


By the end of the week the coaster was completely repainted!


Vulture will retain its name but will sport a dark red color scheme when it reopens.

I'll have another update from the park very soon!

Good stuff. Nice to see it goin again

You know what this needs, an RCDB article, how do you make your own?

If I knew, I could help CD5 a lot with realism.

^ Why exactly does he need an RCDB article? It helps out with nothing whatsoever...

It helps out nothing but is cool for advertising nonetheless, gives me an Idea^^,

As always it looks like you've put a lot of thought in it, might I suggest just thinking about vulture giving it another name like ninja? the colours are very close to the sfmm one so it could be realistic and additional theming to come in later... just a suggestion^^

All of the big parks nowadays have rcdb articles, I think Six Flags South Carolina will be somthing special.

If he wants an RCDB article, I'm sure he'd like to make it himself.

Screens look nice though.

great stuff. can't wait for more.

1993

The guys at Six Flags are working nearly around-the-clock to ensure that the park is returned to its original form by next spring. Crews have been in and out of the park's existing buildings, gutting many of them to the studs in order to prevent molding. I was told that the most buildings have had to be nearly rebuilt from the inside out.


The former carousel has been removed from the park. I was told it was cheaper to buy a newer model than repair the old one.


Therefore we have the new Carolina Carousel which stands where Gully Gulch Grill once stood. It was nearly leveled by the storm. A new restaurant will open across the path where the emporium once stood.


The new turnstile building has begun to rise. It is considerably larger than the former turnstile building.


It will also house ticket sales and guest relations.


Pieces of what will become Batman: The Ride began arriving at the park today.


Landwork has been going on for a few weeks now. Vertical construction is expected to begin later this week.

From the ticket booth, it looks like you nailed the Six Flags atmosphere.

Looks great!

1993

Work is progressing at a steady rate at the new Six Flags South Carolina. Track work has started on Batman: The Ride and the ride is expected to be completed in about a month. Right now work is concentrated in the entrance plaza. The turnstile and ticket building is coming along quite nicely.


The interiors of the building are almost complete. Exterior work is underway now.


Guests will purchase tickets here.


Everything is looking good!

Im really looking forward!
Everything seems fine so far and the fact, that this keeps going makes me want more!

Needs flags.

I always thought that CGAP was in West Virgina not South Carolina!! silly me.

But I still love it.

We're nearing the end of 1993 and that means that the opening of Six Flags South Carolina is quickly approaching. Track is going up left and right over at Batman: The Ride. Nearly half of the ride's track is already up. They are expecting to begin testing by February!

The park has released a list of attractions which will open with the park. A name in parentheses is the ride's former name.

Carolina Carousel
Charleston Railway
Parachute Falls
Washout
Batman: The Ride
Viper (Heatwave)
Vulture
Derecho
RoadRunner Express (Millipede)
Monster Mash Hotel
Indigo Plunge
Thunder River (Gully River Rapids)
The Great Swings
Scrambler
Vortex
Swan Boats
Bumper Cars

The following rides will not return:

SkyWheel
Magic Carpet
Harbortown Drive


I stopped by the park on my way home from the office today. I snapped a shot of Batman, along with the park's other three steel coasters. You can also see Roadrunner Express' new paint job.

I should have a very nice update for you all in a couple of weeks!

Coasterdude I am impressed with every update and this one is no exeption. But in the 2000s is it okay if you keep Batman the Ride black? many Six Flags parks already painted it yellow. I don't like it like that. So can you keep this batman clone black?

i like batman black with black supports, but that's just me.

love it as usual.

thats a beautiful pictutre...i love this dude


i cant wait to see what else you have in store for the 90's

Epic.
