The tight, compact and unique nature of the layout exceeded the capabilities of the trains and this was ultimately the demise of the ride.  By all accounts, the LIM and computer problems were more or less resolved in it's last years.  Well, other than the fact that budgets didn't always allow both sides to have a full set of LIMs but that wasn't the fault of the ride.

Fortunately we still have the Freeze coasters for that tophat fix

doesn't compare to the original tophats. Skyrocket's is more of a very inclined over banked turn. Premier's new coaster in Indonesia has a similar, but larger version of Skyrocket's tophot.. arghh I hate calling these new things tophats

I'm going on of the Freeze's next year fo sho.

I agree Wade, it's an awesome ride!
