Cedar Point's new coaster, Steel Vengeance, by the #'s, VIDEO & REVIEW

News review & video riding Steel Vengeance before the Cedar Point May 5 opening.

OK. Now that is a review.

Did I read that right? Top speed 74mph (assuming at the bottom of the first drop), 73mph airtime hill?!? That’s insane!

But then again, what do I know?

“Steel Vengeance looks too intense for me!”

"I feel sick just looking at Steel Vengeance!"

“I want to ride something more thrilling than Steel Vengeance!”

Said no one ever....

I have an hour ERT on May 11th. Just by the numbers, how many rides do you think I can get on SteVe if I enter the park via it's main entrance at 9:00?

Stop it.

For the whole day from 9 am until 10 pm, probably 5 or 6. For the hour of ERT, 1. You won’t get a second.

Hey, let's ride (random Intamin coaster). What? It's broken down? I totally didn't expect that.

I'll be anxious to come back into this thread and report how many laps I got. I think I can get more than one, if not I'll get a few on Maverick.

You should keep a record of these laps on some sort of small notebook that can fit in your pocket. Remember that after 4 lap tallies you can just slash through them for the 5th, and then start a whole new group of 5.

That will make counting your laps easier when you are ready to report.

We're all anxious for you!

60 minutes and each lap is 2.5 minutes, so you should be able to get 24 in. It might take a few minutes to walk back there from the main entrance, so we'll say 22 instead.

Will do! Thanks for having hope. Hopefully my thighs can take the beating.

The finale has been compared to a mechanical bull, it's absolutely unbelievable.
