Party Rocker said:So there is the drop then a straight part, but there used to be a drop then lift then straight? That sounds interesting. Those supports do look very odd in the picture, almost as odd as Verbolten's supports, but of course there is a logical reason for all funny looking supports.
jman89 said:I mention in the drawing that Le Scoot may have been a transport from another park. I heard that rumor about a year ago on the Coaster Insider tour. It was the tour guide, but IIRC, he said no one could really remember. You might think that it is too terrained to be a transport, but if you think about it, the whole ride just sits in a big easily created for any ride hole. Any body here have any ideas about that?

I remember Nora asked on her coaster tour a little while back and was told that it was build for the park. It is an interesting rumor though. The park would have to have records of it, wouldn't they?
Party Rocker said:I don't think it is a transplant. It just is not the park's style. Every ride they have was made for the park exception of the carousel. It just doesn't seem right that the park would buy another ride when they usually get them made specifically for their park. I also want to include Griffon in the exception since the one in Tampa was built first.

Gavin said:Anyone know if Busch Gardens Houston had a log flume?
Swiftman said:Anyway, I imagine the other lift was removed because it was more trouble than it was worth to maintenance. Why maintain two lift motors when you don't have to?
netdvn said:What gets me is that Le Scoot is a terrain ride and moving terrain rides is difficult. If the ride was moved, it had to be modified unless its former home had the exact same terrain as BGW has.
I guess Gavin already cleared this question up, but I'll throw this out there too:netdvn said:The Van Nuys park did have one though. Not sure if that one was moved to Williamsburg or scrapped. I can't seem to find an accurate picture of the layout (just an RCT3 recreation and that looks different from Le Scoot's layout).
