I feel fortunate to live in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Most of the major parks are grouped in eastern Midwest (Ohio and East) and the Northeast. In a 3 hour radius I have: Dorney Park Six Flags Great Adventure All coasters at the Jersey Shore Hersheypark Six Flags America Coney Island and others in the Connecticut area Knoebels In a 5-6 hour radius (in addition to the above): Busch Gardens Williamsburg Kings Dominion Six Flags New England Kennywood Darien Lake 8-9 hour radius: Cedar Point Kings Island Waldameer Carowinds 12-13 hours Holiday World Six Flags Over Georgia Dollywood. If given 12 hours, a lot of people could get to a lot of parks from many places on the east coast, but I've got over a dozen parks within 6 hours. And they aren't just run of the mill places. We're talking many of the best and the oldest coasters out there. If you added up sheer numbers of roller coasters, I have nearly 50 in a three hour radius.

ISBN: 978-0-7643-4158-8 Amazon will begin selling it, hopefully, this Thurs. You can order it directly from me. Visit the FB page for American Coasters or send me a private message here on TPR. American Coasters FB Page

I was interviewed by my hometown newspaper the Courier Post. If you live in the South Jersey area, pick one up. They featured an interview with me about my new book in a piece they did about roller coasters. If you aren't from Jersey, here is a link to the article, although I think the print version has more pics. Courier Post Story

Don't make more of it than what it is. I'm assuming the poll assumes that most people voting haven't ridden either so you're just voting on what you've seen so far. I like the look and layout of Iron Rattler better so that's the way I vote. I'm riding both of them within a few days of each other in May (I hope) so I'll know if I like one over the other for realz then unless it's too close to call.

Iron Rattler: Because it uses the terrain and is a little longer and deeper on the first drop. I expect both to be awesome though.

Ah, that makes sense now. Didn't realize I was linking the whole page. [n00b]

I click IMG and paste the link in there and I just get a weird icon. I see this same icon a lot in other posts so people are having trouble.

Thanks, so I guess the IMG tags don't work.
