In a major nod to its history, Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, Illinois, has officially announced that its massive dual-track wooden roller coaster, American Eagle, will return to its iconic side-by-side racing operation. For the first time in nearly a decade, both sides of the colossal wooden structure will run simultaneously, reviving the head-to-head competition that made the ride a global fan favorite.
“American Eagle has been a classic of Six Flags Great America for more than four decades,” John Krajnak, Park President of Six Flags Great America, said in the announcement. “Bringing back racing is a meaningful way to celebrate the nostalgia guests remember while delivering the kind of thrilling, shared experience that defines our park today.”

Because the attraction utilizes a unique twin-track engineering footprint to send two full trains hurtling through space at the exact same time, it delivers a deeply interactive, competitive experience that modern steel coasters rarely replicate. The revival allows longtime park loyalists to relive their favorite childhood memories while introducing a brand-new generation of thrill-seekers to the friendly track rivalries of the 1980s and '90s.
The side-by-side racing experience anchors a broader 50th-anniversary lineup across the 300-acre property, which features 17 roller coasters alongside nostalgic entertainment, milestone-exclusive food and beverage offerings, and special events.
