It's always great when a classic coaster gets a new lease on life, and this year is no exception as Vortex at California's Great America has received a new lease on life this year with all new floorless trains, a great new paint job and a general freshening up of the front of the park. 
The next few years are going to be very exciting for California's Great America and we can't wait to see what the future holds.
