I like option 2 because of the yellow outline but the letters aren't big enough. If you did an option 4 with yellow outline then that would be my favorite but in the meantime I will say 4.

I thought I had voted in this poll but I guess not. I have ridden: Alpengeist Batman(SFOG) Dueling Dragons Montu Afterburn/Top Gun (Carowinds) Flight Deck (CGA) Montu is my favorite with Afterburn being a close second. My rankings are: Montu Afterburn Alpengeist Dueling Dragons Batman Flight Deck

I found 7 ducks.

OMG, I am going insane. I need to ride a coaster now! It has only been a little over a month but I am feigning something terrible and I still have 2 months to go!

I am looking forward to: -Our Texas trip in April/May (SFOT, SFFT, SWSA) -Our Northeast trip in September/October (SFGrAdv, Hershey, Dorney and maybe Knoebels) -More good times with friends -Getting more credits and travelling more -Dare Devil Dive media day -Finally getting to ride El Toro, Kingda Ka, Nitro, Green Lantern, Storm Runner, Fahrenheit, Lightning Racers, Talon, Hydra, S:KC, Titan, Steel Eel and Texas Giant

Just this year my partner and I were riding in the back of the Scream Machine at SFOG and as we went down the first drop we both were basically standing and the buzz bar came all the way up. And then it happened on the second drop too. When we got to the bottom of the second drop I slammed it down and it locked again. We held on for the rest of the ride. Thank God for seatbelts or our asses would have been ejected. I think it was because my belly is bigger and the buzz bar didn't initially lock down. Regardless, one of the single scariest ride experiences I have ever had.

Getting more credits this year than I have in a while (26) Riding both Intimidators (one sucked, one didn't-I'll let you guess which) Riding 305 4 times with absolutely no wait and then 4 more times troughout the day with maybe a 10 minute wait (2 of those in the pitch black the weekend before Halloween-amazing!) Getting to ride Diamondback, Beast, Voyage, Raven and Kentucky Rumbler for the first times. Oh and did I mention Delirium? Love it!!! Having a partner and friends that I love to ride coasters with! Oh and finding out my home park is getting the first Eurofighter with only lap bars. Stoked!

I rode BBW in 07 and from all of the press it had over the years, I was very disappointed in it. It was my first suspended coaster. It started off pretty blah and then when I thought the best part was coming (the drop) we hit a trim and it slowed the drop. I just thought overall that it was very blah. I was none too impressed. I rode Top Gun/whatever it is called now at KI this summer and thought it was 10 times better than BBW. It was faster and a lot more fun and I thought it swung a hell of a lot more than BBW. So I wasn't too sad that they tore down BBW.

Got mine on Friday. Don't have my camera around but I ordered for me and some give aways for my local coaster club. Got: Raw 1-2 copies Raw 2 Raw 3 Raw 4-2 copies Raw 5-2 copies Also got the Thanksgiving card, brochures from a few parks, TPR pen and 3 mints. Thanks Robb and TPR!

I haven't gotten my shipment yet but hopefully tonight it will be in my box when I get home! Can't wait!!!

^Agreed! I used to really love the GA Cyclone and then about 5 years ago it got to the point that it is unrideable. I really could see the RM treatment to this one. It would make it insane and I would actually ride it again. If they are not going to do anything to it I wish they would just tear it down. It is such a waste of space as it sits now. I will take a GCI in its place any day!

I also forgot to mention the Ghoster Coasters(or whatever they are called now, I can't keep up with the name changes) at Carowinds, Kings Island and Kings Dominion. For being kiddie woodies they do really feel like a real wood coaster. I think they are a good start for most young kids and fun, even for adults.

-My boyfriend that shares my obsession with coasters -B&M and GCI -All my friends in my coaster club that share my obsession -SFOG for only being 10 minutes from where I live and the fact that we have Goliath which is my number one steel. Also, that we are getting the first eurofighter with just lap bars next year (YAY!) -Dollywood and Pete Owens, for being awesome! -Robb, Elissa and TPR for being awesome and bringing us the most up to date coaster news, pictures and videos

Thunderhead, hands down. It is amazing at night. That was just reconfirmed to me on Saturday night. The sky was clear, you could see all the stars, the moon was full and Thunderhead was hauling ass! I must say that I had one of, if not the, best ride on it Saturday night during ERT. It also just reconfirms why it is my fav woodie. Stupid good airtime!

1. Look at coaster related sites on the web 2. Hang out with my coaster club buds and talk about coasters 3. Watch TPR videos (specifically the RAW series...can't wait for RAW 5) 4. Go to Smoky Mountain Coasterfest at Dollywood the weekend before Thanksgiving 5. FREAK OUT because I know I am not going to ride anything til March!

Yeah, we will see about that....

Not at all....speed and straight aways are not my thing. I could care less how fast a coaster can go if it really does nothing. I was super disappointed in the videos for Cheetah Hunt. Yes, I know I haven't ridden it yet but just like Formula Rossa, it looks incredibly boring to me.

Yes, it previously held the "Chevy Show" and several other shows over the years.

It will probably go in the old Batman Stunt Show building since they have not used that thing for years now and it is just sitting there rotting.

To be honest I think this thing looks a lot more fun than Cheetah Hunt. Too bad BGT isn't getting this instead. It looks to have a little bit of airtime.

I think I have visited the most parks this year since starting my coaster career: Carowinds(1) Dixieland(2) Lake Winnie(1) Dollywood(3) Kings Island(2) Holiday World(1) Beech Bend(1) Alabama Adventure(1) Kings Dominion(1) SFOG(20)

I have a top 5 of each: Top Five Wood- 1. Thunderhead 2. Voyage 3. Raven 4. Roar (SFDK) 5. Kentucky Rumbler Top Five Steel- 1. Goliath (SFOG) 2. SheiKra 3. Kumba 4. Montu 5. Diamondback

I must be the only one that is slightly disappointed. I mean the theming will be amazing as usual. Busch always gets that right, but I am not all that excited about the coaster. I thought the launch would be at least 70 or more. The name is horrendous. Why would they pick such a bad name for such a big coaster? And I personally think the train looks awful (if that is really how it will look.) I guess we will have to see how this puppy (or cheetah) rides come next year. It definitely will be more of a family coaster.

I have to agree with some on here that I am a bit disappointed in the layout so far. With the big 3 at BGT all being in my top 5 steel coasters I guess I was expecting more. I just don't find that speed and straight track sections are all that impressive. Coasters like Rita and the new one in Dubai have no interest to me because they are all about speed and don't really do much. I am glad that there is at least a zero g roll and that weird figure 8 thing in the air but I guess I just wanted/expected more. I will have to wait to ride it to see what I really think I guess.
