I'm so glad that Great American Scream Machine rode better for you too. That ride has come so far for me. It has been a true redemption, from my least favorite coaster to top 25%. That entire park keeps getting better every time I visit.

Six Flags Over Georgia doesn't nearly receive as much attention as other Six Flags chain parks do. And its upsetting to me. It is my home park and I go almost every weekend. The coaster lineup is quite great, including an RMC (definitely not as good as its predecessor, but its ok), a B&M hyper coaster, the unique Dare Devil Dive, a classic and a once-groundbreaking wooden coaster, a flying coaster, an inverted coaster, a vekoma super looper, a B&M stand up (pretty rare and rarely a smooth and enjoyable ride), and some good flat rides. This park delivers and its extremely underrated. It needs and deserves more attention. Its one of the best in the chain, and by far the cleanest and safest park.

Great video as always. I’ve never been to SFOG and I hope to get there while down there for Arieforce One! Gotta get them RMC’s!!

Really enjoyed this video! I am going for the first time this year this Saturday for the ACE event. I am excited to meet some fellow enthusiast and I like seeing Scream Machine running well. I also have it as my 5th worst coaster I have ever been on. It seems like that will change

I remember all!! I have ridden every coaster, well ride, since the beginning. Even folded myself into the kiddie rides when my kids were little. Had a pass from 1980 until the club membership started, then had a membership with the food package until 2 years ago. Have had many multi ride adventures on most of the coasters ever there. Stayed on Mindbender for 37 loops, Goliath-26, Viper-22, SM-19 and the mine train for 2 1/2 hours. Had friends that worked the coaster, it was a dead fall night, and they thought it would be funny to just leave us on it until close. Only running 1 train, they barely slowed us going through the station! No computer safety controls back then.

Goliath is a TOP TIER hyper. Twisted Cyclone is hit or miss but when it’s hauling it is amazing. Amazing Batman clone, best Superman Ultimate Flight out there. Blue Hawk is a unique fun experience and now that Scream Machine isn’t giving people back problems it’s a damn good ride.

hey! over georgia enthusiast here. glad you really liked it! i’m sad you didn’t get to ride goliath tho. it’s terrific. really love your channel! keep it up! also, i wonder will you rank sfogs coasters again after the rerides? or maybe just all the coasters in georgia (i suppose you haven’t gone to wild adventures or lake winnie though)

SFOG is my home park, and I went 4 or 5 times last year and was decently surprised at how the rides were running and how much of the park had improved. Haven't made it back yet this year due to the crazy Georgia weather but hopefully will soon.

I went to Over Georgia for the first time in March and I was very impressed! I missed Acrophobia and a few other rides but got to ride all the coasters and both dark rides.

I did not know that you stand up on acrophobia when I was a kid. Its a good thing we ran out of time and I didn't ride it becuase I would have had a nasty surprise there lol. It looks so tiny compared to the Kings Island drop tower so we didnt really care about it lol

of course i miss seeing you by 1 flipping week. i was there june 4 with similar weather issues. day started with overcast skies, and the park was pretty quiet. got my 1st ride on twisted colossus, and now i love rmc coasters. that lead to 2 more laps before heading to scorcher. what ever they did to keep it good pass that onto carowinds for vortex. didn't get to ride dare devil b/c sadly i was a little to large for the restraint to close which would be a recurring theme my entire vacation. did batman for credit 85, and decided on a 2nd lap where i apparently almost grayed out. later i got credit 90 with superman, and this was the only ride in the park running 1 train. every other coaster had 2 trains, but superman just 1. that pretzel loop is a fierce little beast. didn't ride Goliath sadly (fear of heights kicked in) so went back to twisted, and lapped it 5 times in the back. by then the sun had come out, and twisted was hauling so fast on my 5 rides.

Glad the park is doing well. As an RMC fanatic my priority is Arie Force and then off to 6 Flags for Twisted Cyclone...

It has been a very long time since I've been to SFOG (back before Ga Cyclone became Twisted even) and after revisiting Sea World Orlando and Busch Gardens for the first time in 20 years I now realize that some of my impressions of the park may be dated.... That being said however: 1. Glad to hear you give some love to Georgia Scorcher finally but holy crap do I hope they put in Pipeline style trains on it some day! 2. Glad to hear you finally admit that Ninja, I mean Blue Hawk is still janky. 3. Agree that the new trains for Mindbender probably ruin it. RIP Mindbender you were one of my favorite coasters in the park. 4. Batman still sounds like Batman. 5. Still not going to talk me into riding GASM or any other woodie again. I'm too old for that stuff any more. 6. Superman still sounds good but I think Manta has pushed it out of my top 5 coasters. 7. After Iron Gwazi I'm seriously looking forward to riding other RMCs even if they don't measure up to the level of IG. 8. SFOG just wouldn't be SFOG without broken down rides or single train operations ( but hey I missed Montu and Sheikra because of closures this week too). 9. I seriously need to get to Fiesta Texas and SFOT sometime soon so I can try out Iron Rattler, Wonder Woman and New Texas Giant.

My 9 yr old sons first roller coaster was the twisted cyclone. It was about a week after you were there actually.

I felt so bad, like I lied to him. The redemption was he was ready to ride more afterwards so it wasn’t to bad I guess. I also lost my favorite Raybans on it.

You can tell they only run 1 train pretty often if they made a sign up for it.

Biggest revelation: you keep your hotel thermostat at 77 in the summer 🥵

@@gametime2473 while I haven’t been on the Ghost Town & Calico Railway, I would say the Dollywood Express is still the superior train at a theme park because: 1. They have the largest locomotives at any theme park (2-8-2’s Vs. Knott’s in 2nd place with their 2-8-0’s). 2. This train climbs 200 feet between the lower loop and the upper loop, or almost the height of many hypercoasters, while most other railroads at theme parks are flat or have relatively mild hills, the steepest hills on the Dollywood Express are either 5 or 6%, which means it rises 5 or 6 feet every 100 linear feet traveled. On the railroads that crisscross the country, the maximum grade, as people who are knowledgeable about railroads call a hill, is usually 2-3%, so for every 100 linear feet traveled, you climb 2-3 feet. So the locomotives at Dollywood are getting a workout every day of the week.
