Wild Kitty is an Allan Herschell Company steel kiddie roller coaster at Frontier City in Oklahoma.

History

The ride opened at Elitch Gardens on May 27, 1995 as Wild Kitten, after being used elsewhere.

In 1999, the Wild Kitten was moved to the new Looney Tunes Movie Town under the name Great Chase. When PARC Management bought the park from Six Flags in 2007, all Warner Bros. theming had to be removed from the park. With the removal of the Looney Tunes theming, the ride was renamed Tombstone Tumbler.

In 2008, the ride was renamed Cactus Coaster. It closed after the 2012 season.

The ride was transported to Frontier City. It opened in 2013 as the Wild Kitty. It replaced a similar roller coaster with the same name.

On August 30, 2018, it was announced during Six Flags' announcement video that Frontier City would receive a new kids area named Timber Town. As part of this, Wild Kitty is to be removed at the end of the 2018 season to make way for Frankie's Mine, a Zamperla Family Gravity Coaster 80STD that is opening in 2019.

Design

Wild Kitty follows a standard layout with a single chain lift hill and several bunny hills making the oval shaped layout. The train completes three circuits of the track.

Trains

Single train with 3 cars. In each car, riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows for a total of 12 riders per train.

Notes

Although some sources say this ride came from the old location of the park, it actually never operated there. However, it was used when it came to the park.
