RollerCoasters
A place to talk about roller coasters and parks that have them. Everyone is welcome here to both learn and to celebrate these magnificent machines designed to scare you.
Here are some important resources:
Images are welcome if they are of high quality and it doesn't get out of hand. Please use PostImages to upload your image and then use that link in the URL field of your post (other image sites are permitted but Post Images has the best policies and compatibility).
Some basic rules:
-
Opinions, theories, and facts are all welcome – but be clear about what you’re saying.
-
Back up facts with sources as much as possible
-
No spam or sell-promotion. Linking to your own media or site is permissible only if it’s specifically related to a topic/post that someone else created.
-
No photos or videos taken on the rides. This is dangerous and shouldn't be encouraged.
-
Limit political discussion. When discussed it must be park related.
-
No fictional coasters (models, no limits, planet coaster, etc)
-
No posting personal information.
-
No shaming of anyone. We all can continue to learn and not everyone knows everything -- and that's ok.

I'd be good with a Gravity Group retrack instead but I prefer Wild One for both its layout and smoothness over Roar.
I do love Wild One a good bit as well.... Out and back woodies are great but I feel like Wild One is missing some speed that it should have though it's also pretty temperamental too and doesn't always give consistent rides. I really enjoy twister style coasters a lot better and Roar delivers a more consistent ride.....
But honestly, with Wildcat now being gone, I think this is an important ride to keep pretty much as is. It's one of the rare (and maybe only remaining) GCIs that was designed with PTC trains in mind.
