Par 3: Dollywood Travelled as far south as possible after a full day at Kings Island and ended up stopping over somewhere near Lexington. Leaving a 3.5 hour drive down to Dollywood in the morning. After a quick stop off at the effing awesome Popeye's for a Chicken Sandwich, we arrived at...

Was attempting attempting to build an RMC take on an alpine coaster, minus the baking tray seat. I've roughly stuck to that original plan and here's what the end result is... Name: Landslide Length: 8470ft Max speed: 92mph Height: 350ft Biggest Drop: 269ft

Yeah its **** scary at first. First time I drove in Florida I was turning left at traffic lights and went straight down the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic 😂 Even now it can still be a bit daunting in built up areas, I really try to avoid driving into cities when abroad. Can...

Park 2: Kings Island From memory it was only a 2 hour drive from Sandusky to Mason, in reality it was an exhausting drive after a full day at Cedar Point and we arrived at the motel at around 1.30am. Turns out my memory isn't great. I'd first visited Kings Island in 2019 and had an amazing...

It seems to hit a whole new level after dark. More so than pretty much any coaster I've ever done. Definitely check out the Thirsty Pony next time! Really nice staff with a fun atmosphere. It's a bit rough around the edges but the food is great and beer is cheap.

The brother of a very good friend of mine was due to marry his American fiance in her hometown of Oxford, Mississippi and I was invited. Naturally my first thought was 'sweet, I think that's near Dollywood?'. Closely followed by 'I really need to get back on Steel Vengeance'. And eventually 'I'm...

Oh my god this looks amazing. Potentially the most airtime packed Intamin launched coaster of all time? Certainly looks more interesting than Pantheon. Only a 2 hour drive from Calais😍

That's quite surprising considering how much noise it makes!

Day 6/7: Six Flags Magic Mountain A bucket list park for not only coaster nerds, but us who grew up playing RCT2! As per tradition, the day started with confusion and delays as my season pass hadn't registered properly and neither had the attached bring a friend ticket. 20 mins of faffing with...

Since my last post here I've been on another US trip, so it's probably time to quickly wrap this up... Day 4/5 - Disneyland This was the main event, Disneyland on Mrs Fisted's birthday! Started off with a pre booked breakfast buffet at Goofys Kitchen at 8.30am. It's clearly aimed at kids...

Me again! Lightning Rod - Holy crap what a ride. Got some serious thinking to do with the top 5. I love the restraints, get a fair bit more wiggle room than you do on the newer RMCs. I had high hopes for the quad down but didn't realise how much airtime there is elsewhere on the ride. It is...

Steel Vengeance - Yeah it's still incredible 🐐 Back row at night is just obscene. Might need a thigh transplant. Must admit after a couple of early rides I was concerned I'd hyped it up too much before. When it warms up though the ejector moments seem to quadruple.

$25 mil is a big budget. Would love to see a Mack Inverted Powered Coaster but not sure if there's enough space.

1990 - Vampire (Chessington) 1991 - Adventure Express (King's Island) 1992 - Runaway Mine Train (Alton Towers) 1993 - Batman The Ride (Six Flags Great Adventure) 1994 - Nemesis (Alton Towers) 1995 - Dragon Khan (Port Aventura) 1996 - Wildcat (Hersheypark) 1997 - Euro Mir (Europa Park) 1998 -...

Cedar Point is nowhere near the best theme park in the world IMO. Their Fast Lane system is a complete scam. It costs $120 and you can still end up waiting an over an hour for Steel Vengeance. This of course then has a knock on effect on the standby queues which move at a snails pace. Europa...

Silver Star is one of my favourite hypers bur EGF is superior.
