Facts: There are some discrepancies with the Sirocco's opening year.  Some say 1981 while others say 1982.  It seems the ride was built in 1981 and intended to be sold to a park in Japan or China that year.  That order was canceled and the ride was then sold to Walibi who installed in for the 1982 season.
