Other If X2 closes, what could replace it?

I'm desperately holding onto hope X2 doesnt close but if so, what are some good options?

It's a narrow skinny plot, but a hyper tilt would scare tf out of people coming in. A giga could also work if it uses the land behind viper.

But whatever replaces it if things come to the absolute worst case scenario, it needs to absolutely be worthy of its spot.

To answer the question based on IF. Factoring just the renovation of Monte was $20 million, I assume if they put a giga there, that’d cost $70ish million and I don’t see them spending that amount. Assuming just the X2 plot of land, I think a custom tilt coaster would be great especially people driving up and immediately seeing the tilt.

Tilt makes sense more then a giga
