Wile E. Coyote's Grand Canyon Blaster is a family roller coaster in the Bugs Bunny Boomtown section of Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, Texas. Chance Rides built it, and it opened on March 10, 2001. It is themed to the Looney Tunes character Wile E. Coyote and the desert, and the park describes it as a family coaster that goes up, down and around.
The ride is a Chance Rides Big Dipper model. RCDB gives a maximum height of 16 feet, a lift driven by booster wheels and no inversions. A single train of four cars carries 16 riders, seated two across in two rows per car. According to RCDB, adults may ride only when accompanying a child.
The park's minimum rider height is 42 inches, or 36 inches when accompanied.
