Nothing truly exciting local, you either have to travel to Boston, NYC(ish) or West.

Otherwise there are a bunch of mediocre ones just about everywhere. I know there is one by Super Walmart in Scotia.

Best bet for close to your location is Great Escape most likely, but that’s troublesome because you have to pay admission for the entire park.

Dont the ones at Great Escape ride on a rail?

Unless you’ve got money to waste don’t bother. I raced them for 8 years. 2 year track champion in Sr lights and Sr heavys.
