It’s been SO long since I was at CP. I think the last time I was there, the Mantis was the new ride with the 3 hour line. My sister said that the Top Thrill Dragster was INSANE. ---

yeah that vid doesnt do the maverick justice… i was on it the summer that it came out - long lines then but it was worth it. the first drop is actually inverted - more than 90 degrees - and some of the back and forth left to right twists are awesome. TTD and MF still rule all though. ---

sadly one of the most enjoyable local ones has to be the predator at Darien lake. I’m old school I like wooden coasters. Any of the older guys remember the coasters from crystal beach? ---

I was on The Beast, its at Kings Island in Cincinnatti. It is LONG, I think it is a 5+ minute ride. Goes through the forest, pretty cool. Not too rough either from what I remember. The Predator freaking HURT the last time I was on it ---

yeah see thats what i want is something that goes threw the woods and not like all regular twisting wooden roller coasters, i think it would be sweet to have trees just flying pass you as you go threw the woods. ---
