I was at the park today for my "pre-Coasterstock" rides. Just wanted to let everyone know, that the Beast is running soooo smooth. Lots of new wood visible. I normally only ride it in row 1 or 2. I started in row 2, then moved to 14 (non wheel) and finished in the last row. All rides were very enjoyable, and the best I can remember. My only complaint was, now you can really feel the 4 sets of trims hit. Other than that, I'm looking forward to our Saturday night ERT rides...
