Other Parks w/ 2 Launch Coasters

Just wondering if there are any other parks out there that have both an impulse and a launched full-circuit, or if CP will be the only one with that "title"?

(And please, let's not turn this into a record-boasting thread.. just a simple question)

The only other parks with Impulse coasters are:

Six Flags Worlds of Adventure
Six Flags Marine World
Six Flags Great America
Valleyfair!
Korakuen Amusement Park


None of these parks have a second launched coaster of any variety. PKD is one park that has a total of 3 launched coasters though.

What are the three? The only one I can think of is Hypersonic XLC. What are the other two?

Thank you, Captain Obvious. It's also the only double-twisting impulse. Hence why I generalized it into the "impulse" category to compare with other parks.

There are parks with a launched full circuit and a launched circuit, a better question than "an impulse and a full circuit launch". Knotts is one of these parks, with montezummas revenge and xcelerator.

TTD2003, that's not a mistake. An impulse is an impulse.

Cedar Point has three launched roller coasters. Millennium Force get's launch from 1 to a breathtaking 13 miles per hour in under 2 seconds. :)

OK...Mantis get's "launched" from 0 - 63 in just under a minute. Is that the true meaning of "launched"?
