Looks like another instant classic from GCI!
Screamscape said:2013 - Gold Striker / GCI Wooden Coaster - (8/1/12) California’s Great America has started their online teaser for the 2013 coaster on Facebook and sent out an image of a miner that says Striking New Records, August 29th. There is also a small box that says “Au13” in it. “Au” is the symbol given to Gold in the periodic table, but the atomic number is really 79 not 13, so I can only assume this is a reference to 2013. (Fun Fact: If you count all the coasters removed from the park over the years, this new coaster will also be the park’s 13th coaster.) Now if that wasn’t enough, Cedar Fair has also just filed a trademark for the name “Gold Striker” this past week, which fits right in perfectly as the name for this new ride. We’ll find out on August 29th.
Oh… and in case anyone was wondering, Gold Striker has now gone vertical according to this latest picture sent in.
Cheesy.
