Steel Coaster Trick-Track???

With the discussion swirling about the King Cobra, I thought back to the many rides I enjoyed on her. One of my favorite parts was that straight section of track on the back side of the ride. The track banked left and tilted you to towards the access road below, before doing the turn for the final bunny hops.

Does anyone know if this kind of "trick-track" has been used on another steel coaster???

Adventure Express kind of does the same thing. In one of the helixes, the track suddenly banks even farther to the inside, then goes back to the way it was. It feels like the train is dumping off the track, and it's always been my favorite part of the ride.

This wild mouse had one or 2 pieces of trick track, plus some extreme little speed bumps. (Sorry it's hard to see in the picture) http://www.coastergallery.com/japan/FH15.html

I have ridden a few steel coasters (FOF, media day) that produced the exact same effect, although much more painful!

The word "definitely" is definitely the most misspelled word on the buzz.
