Another awesome DVD to add to the collection! I also really enjoyed the split screen on Steel Hawg/Mumbo Jumbo. I've always thought that the split screen would be a great idea for racing/dueling coasters, especially ones that have completely different layouts (like Dragon Challenge at IoA) so that you can see what both sides are doing at the same time. Great job on the videos, though. The Raw series continues to set the standard for coaster videos today. Keep up the excellent work!

This was my best year for coasters. I actually got to follow through with some of my trip plans for the first time ever. My top 5 wooden coasters list received a serious facelift, with only 1 of the coasters from the beginning of the year reamaining at the years end. Highlights included: -Holiday World and the Voyage, my favorite wooden coaster -M*ch*gan's Adventure and Shivering Timbers -getting off of Millennium and walking right back on during CoasterMania ERT -planning a weeklong trip to Dorney Park, Six Flags Great Adventure, and Coney Island -specifically at those parks: Steel Foce, Thunderhawk, El Toro, Nitro, Kingda Ka, Cyclone, and two hot dogs from the original Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Stand Hopefully 2007 will bring even better highlights than 2006.

My goals for 2007: -get coaster number 100, plus a lot more (currently on 96) -Mt. Olympus -Six Flags New England -Busch Gardens Africa, Disney parks in Florida -Six Flags St. Louis -Six Flags Magic Mountain/Knotts Berry Farm in SoCal -Dollywood

I'm 3 hours or less from Cedar Point, Kennywood, Geauga Lake, and King's Island, but Cedar Point is my home park. I've been going since 1997 and it never gets old.

My first coaster was the Screamin' Eagle at what was then Six Flags Over Mid-America, now Six Flags St. Louis when I was 8 years old.
