    It's when you can spot multiple "Wallys" you've met over the years! @Ian - doing a fab job blending in.

    Universal Studios Florida | Unknown | Unknown | 2026? (Replacement for Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit)

    Complete non issue, just the oils in the chain lube / grease setting a light from some cutting torches. Might just require a slight change of approach for the rest of the lift hill.

    Guest dies after becoming unresponsive on Stardust Racers at Epic Universe

    Having looked at both the handle bars on Stardust Racers & Hyperia (photos below). I wound’t say the handle bars on Stardust Racers has an inherent design issue.

    Walibi Belgium | Loup-Garou RMC conversion | 2028

    This makes me pretty happy, if Loup-Garou was to be RMC’d then the park has a really healthy line up - possibly one of the best in Europe with Kondaa. I also have no issues with Vampire potential being axed. It’s the best scenario in my opinion.
