Fun Spot Atlanta | ArieForce One | RMC IBox Steel Coaster | 2023

Nice to see track going up! Any predictions or insights on when this might open?

 

[Tomatron]

As long as it's by November (which I'm sure it will be), as I'm hoping to squeeze it on to my Florida trip!

It still has a long way to go, but they are making solid progress. I've been saying for a quite a while that I don't think it'll open until August at best. I'm thinking that July now seems like a quite real possibility. I'm beginning to think that they might be aiming for a July 4th opening date. I'm just not sure they'll hit it.

I-Box has started to be added to the structure:

It's unnecessarily patriotic, but I will admit I do like the different coloured rails.

Lots of track has been installed in places;

Some great aerial shots of the coaster, it really does tower over the rest of the park

ArieForce One footer at the back of the park, presumably where that insane barrel roll is going to be;

I'd wager that western looking building right next to the footer is coming down.

It's not.

Work continues with supports going up at the other end of the park for the turn around:

Still waiting on the inversions by the freeway, looks like work has been redirected to the opposite side of the park;

Even with ArieForce One in full swing, the park is also quietly working on its ride offerings. As of a few days ago, a Tilt-a-Whirl has arrived on site and will presumably be constructed soon;

ArieForce One announcement is coming from Fun Spot next week. Hopefully it’s the opening date!

A couple more updates;

The second mini-golf has now been closed for good. They’ve already torn out the first one to directly make way for ArieForce One. Two more family rides are also said to be on the way, one of which is the Tilt-a-Whirl mentioned above.

On the topic of ArieForce One, the stall track has finally been lifted into place;

[CoasterHour]

To prevent disappointment Fun Spot Atlanta has clarified that their upcoming announcement does not relate to ArieForce One. Not sure why they used the coaster for the teasing photo originally if this was the case, but at least they warned us now.

More I-Box has been put in place behind the arcade it seems! This element sort of looks like an S-Bend in a way but i'll leave it up to everyone else to decide
