Rookie Racer is a Formula 1 racing-themed Vekoma family coaster at Six Flags St. Louis. It opened on September 30, 2023 within the Britannia area. It is currently being built on the spot where the former Speed O'Drome Go Karts extra charge attraction used to be and where Catwoman Whip was originally planned to be built for the 2020 season.
History[]
On March 1, 2023, Six Flags St. Louis announced Rookie Racer, their first original roller coaster since American Thunder opened in 2008.[1]

Layout[]
After leaving the station, guests will make a left turn into the tire-driven lift hill, followed by a drop curving to the left. They then experience a horizontal loop, a small helix, and an S-bend before hitting the final brake run.
