Cant go wrong with Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America or Batman the Ride.

In theory - yes. In practice - not always. I would be scared to death and feeling sick in many of the rollercoasters in your pics! Cool pics.

I live right by Six Flags Great Adventure quite a few of my friends work there. One of my friend's dad used to be the manager there and I ski with the guy who designed Kingda Ka and El Toro.

I love wooden roller coasters. there's something charming about a ride that makes you think its gonna fall apart ;)

Don't know the name, but this is a ride at Michigan's Adventure (I took it while at the height of another carnival-style ride, haha)

Nice pics! I loooove rollercoasters and theme parks too.




I love roller coasters. How far is the Six Flags in New Jersey from New York City? It took us exactly 1 hour and 15 minutes when we took the New Jersey Transit special express bus from Port Authority Bus Terminal this past summer.

Who doesn't love rollercoasters! I love X at Magic Mountain. Hopefully the local coaster park here in Utah (Lagoon) will get some better rides. They aren't bad, but they could be better.

I Absolutely LOVE rollercoasters.Especially the El Toro ride in Six Flags New Jersey.You'll never know whats going to happen next!Another ride that I loved when i went was the Medusa!That has to be one of the best and smoothest rollercoasters I've ever been on and it looks all rusted and everything!I'm looking forward to visiting Six Flags New Jersey really soon.O Yea, and Two-Face in Six Flags America is great too!

MayDay you are right about Cedar Point. I need to find my old pictures and scan them in. That place is amazing. I rode the Millennium Force at night and that was damn near terrifying.
