That change to the ride this year is several hundred feet of Prowler's
traditional wooden track has been
replaced by steel "Titan Track" from Great Coasters International.
Titan Track is an all steel replacement for wood track that's used in
areas of high stress and high wear that cause lots of maintenance.
Outside of the budgetary and time costs for having to constantly work on
areas like this the goal of Worlds of Fun is to be able to give riders a
more consistent and enjoyable ride experience.
Prowler's Titan Track extends out towards the rides turnaround. It
does help with some of the rides roughness that's developed over the last few years as the
Titan Track is silky smooth. The purist in me would rather have
wooden track but the realist in me says that replacing sections with
low/no maintenance track that were costly high maintenance areas helps
keep costs down which lets the park put those funds elsewhere such as
into new rides.
Here's a little snap of everyone attending ACE Around the World during
