Some people haven't been and do not know all, or haven't been on all of the coasters so please put a list up. I know all of the coasters i'm just trying to help others. I vote off Roadrunner Express.

It's a no-brainer: Mind Eraser. (sorry for the pun. Well, no, I'm not really sorry, but I thought I'd say it anyway.)
Reason: There are more than enough Boomerang coasters around -- no one will miss one if it disappears!

Okay a question for all of you people who have ridden Mind Eraser (I haven't yet- closed when I was there): it looks to me like it could be a rough/painful ride. What's the best way to deal with that? Usually on a coaster like that, I would put my head forward so that my head and neck don't get hurt from hitting the shoulder harness. But when I tried that on Serial Thriller, I encountered a whole new problem: when I leaned my head forward, the shoulder harness really really really hurt my chest and shoulders. So if Mind Eraser is rough or anything, how can you ride it comfortably? Same with Serial Thriller too, by the way, if you have any ideas...

I don't think there is a comfortable way to ride mind eraser( that is if Mind Eraser is like Boomerang Coast To Coaster at SF Fiesta TX). just hold on and don't try anything. What I usually do is keep my back against the seat and hold my head forward so it doesn't bump the headrest but doesn't hurt my sholders.

Something I tend to do is put my hands on the harness at about ear level. I'll provide some space between the harness and my fingers, allowing the fingers to act as "shock absorbers" between my head and the harness. It works fairly well on many bumpy coasters, but not all. It tends to work well on most of the Vekoma Boomerang coasters (like Mind Eraser).

Well I've never ridden Mind Eraser and I can't stand the other two...but I am willing to give Serial Thriller a second chance but not so sure about Raging Wolf Bobs....so, Raging Wolf Bobs it is. Hey, by the way, does anyone have idea idea what that name is supposed to mean?

Villain....just because, like Raging Wolf Bobs, I have no desire to ride it again (waaaaaaaaay too rough!) whereas I'll probably give serial thriller another shot.
