History

Linus' Beetle Bugs originally opened at Coney Island in 1969 .[1]

PEANUTS Off-Road Rally opened in the year 1976 as Pee Wee Raceway with the park's grand opening. In 1998, there was a renovation of the children's area, which at the time, was The Happy Land of Hanna-Barbera, and it caused the ride's name to be changed to Motor Mouse. In 2006, came the complete makeover of The Happy Land of Hanna-Barbera, with 3 new rides and attractions. The area then became known as Nickelodeon Universe. This makeover included complete rethemeing of all the Hanna-Barbera rides to fit the Nickelodeon theme. That is when the ride became known as Go Diego Go. Although Cedar Fair Entertainment Company had the rights to continue using the Nickelodeon themes through 2016[2] following its purchase of the park in 2006, it was decided to remove all remaining Hanna-Barbera and Nickelodeon themes from the kids area in time for the start of the 2010 season. So in 2010, the area went through a another re-themeing to fit with other Cedar Fair's kid's areas. Nickelodeon Universe then became known as Planet Snoopy. To fit with the re-themeing, Go Diego Go became PEANUTS Off-Road Rally.
