When the Eagle is running backwards again this summer is it safe to say that its the tallest , fastest , longest backward running coaster in the world..?

No, Bandit at Yomiuriland runs backwards.. It's bigger, longer, and faster. But, it's steel. AE could hold records I suppose for backwards wood.

I didnt know bandit ran backwards.....cool ....Well wood for sure ..right ?

Hmmm thats a good question I think there is a chance, I dont actually know all the coasters that go backwards, but American EAgle should be up there. The ride has a lot of records in the top 5 which is good considering it is 21 years old. However if it is record breaking in those catagories, it would have broken them already.
Yeah, Bandit was turned backwards this past summer. It would seem that it was so popular they are going to leave at least one train backwards.

DAH! A Togo coaster backwards? How can anybody take the pain?

I would have thought that too, CsTrFrk, but I rode many nice Togos in Japan. (I know! Can you believe it?)
