The ride to replace the High Speed Thrill Coaster is finally under construction.

It is going to be called "Kozmo's Kurves" and does not follow the same layout as the old HSTC. Instead it has a helix in the middle, but still follows the same footprint.

Also they did manage to save the old roof from the HSTC station for use on the new ride.

I did not see any track or trains on site, but they did begin to start pouring footers.

Here are some photos of the dismantling of the High Speed Thrill Coaster.

This was the last known Overland coaster in existence.   It will be replaced with a new family coaster this year.

It is sad to see you go!
