But ya know, Ghostrider isn't all that big. It's pretty compact. So I don't think that any trims will be added anytime soon. But they do need a block brake so they can run the coaster at full capacity. But Nothing can beat the Ghost coaster on the west coast.

A block break would not really help the ride, partially because the train makes its way through the circut so quickly, you would only end up with stacking at the station. I go there quite often, the biggest reason is becouse there are not enough ride ops checking restraints, at least not as many as at CP. Usually only one person per side. They consistantly stack even a 2 train operation, so a 3rd would only add to the stacking.
BTW, I still am hard pressed to pick a favorite between Ghostrider and The Beast. BOTH are incredibly good, but different. But, ST beats them both IMO.

Gotta ride 'em all!
Then I gotta get my a** to Michigan and ride Shivering Timbers. It looks awesome.

Haven't been on Ghostrider, however, I have been on ShiveringTimbers at Mich Adv, S:ROS at SFNE, BoulderDash at Lake Compounce. These rides are worth a trip from anywhere to ride.
To Superbatboy:
Take the rest of your body with you, but definitely get on Shivering Timbers, the coaster with the most out-of-seat experience I've ever been on. (I estimate about 30 seconds, even if you're not trying.) Don't "staple" yourself in.
FLOAT !!!
Anyone reading this that hasn't been on Shivering Timbers, please do so, you'll have a harder time picking a different favorite woodie.
I don't care for beast or the son. They aren't very good, especially son of beast.
