Six Flags Mexico announces Speedway Stunt Coaster

I've always appreciated how family coasters get the bare minimum of theming, especially from a chain like Six Flags. It's a nice change of pace.

This makes me miss Rock n Roller coaster

I really like what parks are doing with these Vekoma Family Boomerang coasters. I really think it's important for parks to make kids rides fun, exciting, and interesting so that those kids grow up wanting to ride bigger rides/coasters. As height restrictions for larger coasters go up (so very few great new coasters can be ridden by kids under 48"), it's important for parks to capture this audience and get them hooked on themed entertainment while they're young and before they get interested in other forms of entertainment.

Looks like a solid junior coaster, and given what I saw at this park when I visited last year, I'm fairly confident the theming shown is quite representative of the finished product. However, given that the park already has both a standard junior coaster from Vekoma and a Tivoli from Zierer, I'm not sure this is really the ride the park needs right now, and feel the ride would be a lot more impactful at most of the chain's other parks. I suppose Six Flags felt the need to make up for canceling the tilt coaster here after it had been informally announced and this was the best they could do. At least it's a unique attraction for the area that, depending on how it runs, could potentially be better than half the park's coasters despite its size.
