Roller Coaster you would have liked to have ridden

I unlike most people enjoy Mean streak. But only a little. I would have liked to try it without the trim brakes. My dad does not care about the trim breaks. I think he had some brain damage before riding.

Phoenix at Knoebels with it's original trains. 'nuff said... :)

Original trains... do you mean with the old (fifties-style) bodies? I read somewhere that the Phoenix trains are actually original, at least the chassis... only the bodies were replaced when the coaster was moved to Knoebels.

Uh-huh. Yep. Thats what I want.

Looks exciting but it really wasn't. I was able to ride the Cascade Comet. The coaster was very short, only 4 drops. The train valleyed on the first drop after we rode it the first time. It was torn down soon after.

Drachen Fire before the corkscrew was removed!

The Crystal Beach Cyclone and the Bobs at Riverview.

I've heard that Raging Wolf Bobs at WoA is kind of an homage to the original Bobs at Riverview? Can anyone confirm this? I hope they did something wrong cause RWB is just plain awful.

I would love to have ridden Revolution and Collossus at SFMM when they were reportedly better. Hopefully, they will someday be restored to their former glory.

Too bad. But in a beauty contest. Well. Its a looker. Certainly a looker. My choice would be THUNDERBOLT @ SAVIN ROCK.
