I was fortunate enough to visit the park for the unveiling of the new ride and even though I did not ride The Flash, it appeared that coaster enthusiasts were loving the experience of the ride. Yes there was a time when I would have been first online to get on The Flash but these days I'll grab a cup of coffee and read the latest Flash comic lol I will leave the ride to the new generation of thrill seekers so swing by Six Flags and take a ride on The Flash, hold onto your hat! Literally or you will loose it lol
