This classic Schwarzkopf "Shuttle Loop" roller coaster uses a flywheel to launch the train from zero to 60 mph in just four seconds. Originally built in 1978 at Six Flags Astroworld, Greezed Lightnin' was purchased and relocated to Joyland Amusement Park in 2006 and remained in storage until it was sold and moved to Cliff's Amusement Park in 2012.
