I think you should have split steel into two different catagories, looping/hyper/giga and inverted/suspended. There are waaaay to many types of steel coasters out there.


But that's just my crazy weird mind talkin.:D

If I'm not mistaken, Apollo's Chariot is at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, not PKI.

You've not heard of the Abstain Coaster? It turns your belly purple with orange polka dots for 3 weeks. ;) Works better than Henna tattoos!

Seriously, I'm not too wild about any of the choices, so I decided not to pick for shuttle (a.k.a. non-circuit) coasters, although I'll admit that I really enjoyed my first Boomerang experience back in 1992, but have gotten rather bored with them, since, as there are just too many of them. I definitely like Wicked Twister better than Vertical Velocity, and never really thought Superman: The Escape was all that exciting.

Is it the tallest inverted? Well, that would be Record breaking. :p

I put that because it is so much fun and broke the ground for a traditional inverted(it being jammed into a little land plot and being 100-150 feet)
