I'm surprised no one posted this - my Aunt told me about it - it was on the news (she lives in PA).

While I'll do not know if the Invertigo at KI has had any problems of this nature, we all can look back at SFA's Two Face which had numerous incidents of stranded riders that ultimately led to this coaster's demise. Two Face was scrapped following the 2008 season after sitting in the SFA backstage area, unable to find a buyer for the coaster.

4 times in 6 weeks??!?!?! ouchhhh. Bad move by Dorney to pick this ride up it seems. I want to ride it still, but Dorney should have gotten a better coaster. I don't care what people say, I really enjoy Dorney a lot!

Steel Force + Talon + Thunderhawk + many thrilling flats make Dorney a very nice park. It's sad that the problems with Possessed and Stinger have been a black eye to its image.
