The Mind Eraser Rollercoaster At Six Flags America, Largo, MD

Mind Eraser is a standard Vekoma Suspended Looping Coaster that was added to the park in 1995.

Mind Eraser was my third Vekoma SLC and while I'm not a huge fan of these it is still a fun coaster and thankfully Vekoma improved on the design since premiering this style of coaster in 1995.

Hey I still have one more Vekoma production model coasters to ride. This time it is a Vekoma Flying Dutchman named Batwing. The bat was added to Six Flags America in 2001. Again it is placed in a bizarre location. Thankfully it was put in Gotham City but it it is way out in Timbuktu. Batwing is about 200 yards behind Superman and there is nothing else out there except this coaster and a dead end. I hope Six Flags America plans to fill out all of their empty spaces because they have plenty of them. At least they don't have to worry about running out of space for a while.

I really enjoyed watching Six Flags America's Octopus. Everyone on it was having a blast. The thing is they wouldn't be having so much fun if I were on it because well to put it politely I'd make a huge mess on it.

Well it was off to the car for a two hour drive to my hotel but even with my issues with Six Flags America and it's quirks I still had a great two hours at the park.
