In 2000 Speedy Gonzales' Trucking Company opened at Six Flags Ohio. In 2004 the park was sold to Cedar Fair L.P. and renamed Geauga Lake.
The area was rethemed to Kidworks because the park was no longer a Six Flags Park. Speedy Gonzales' Trucking Company was given a generic theme and renamed Road Rally. Geauga Lake closed at the end of the 2007 season. |

In January 2008 Cedar Point announced Planet Snoopy for the 2008 season. The area would include 7 rides, meet and greet opportunities, and games.
