Californias Great America will serve its 51st and final season next year. Its final day of operation will be September 6th, 2027. Ever since 2023 I have visited the park once a year and it’s still one of my favorite parks I’ve ever been to. Everyone go get your final visits in!

Since I’m likely done with new credits this year, I would like to go over my year! New credits: 41 Best new coaster: Stardust New parks: 7 Worst coaster: Kong Best experience: Night rain ride Velocicoaster Best family coaster: Juvelen Most Obscure: Spinning Coaster(Cosmoworld)

ITS OFFICIAL! 🚨 Arie Force One track is on site at Six Flags Magic Mountain! 📷: the_ambassador_ert (Instagram)

🚨According to ocregister.com Six Flags Magic Mountain is adding Arie Force One! If this is true Magic Mountain is about to gain a world class coaster! It is odd though, maybe an apology coaster for X2 closing and Thrill Glider being delayed for so long?

Since I am done getting new credits this year I like to compare my top 15 from the start of the year to now! Start of the year: Now:

I can’t believe I started a trend with ranking top 10 Intamins!

Ranking the top 10 coasters I’ve ridden built by Intamin! 1. Velocicoaster 2. F&F Hollywood Drift 3. Maverick 4. Millennium Force 5. Piraten 6. Hagrids 7. Xcelerator 8. Juvelen 9. Hiccups 10. Flash (SFDK) Intamin is my personal favorite manufacturer and I love their rides!

I got 4 total rides on Fast and Furious! 1 front, 2 back, 1 row 7 and 1 row 4! I absolutely love this ride and it’s easily a top 5, most likely at #5! There’s airtime on every single element, somehow even the stall! It was worth the 3 year wait and it’s so cool to have in socal!

I RODE FAST AND FURIOUS HOLLYWOOD DRIFT! It was so amazing, good airtime everywhere, great hangtime on the inversions and it’s so smooth! But the ops today suck. They were running 1 train for about the first hour and a half the park was open. Other than that it’s amazing!

I’m riding Fast and Furious Hollywood Drift on Monday! For the people who have ridden it what’s the best seat/car?

Rest in peace to one of the best and craziest coasters to ever exist. I love this ride so much and it’s so sad that I don’t even remember the last time I rode it was.

I miss racing through the stars ✨ ☄️

Fast and Furious Hollywood Drift has officially opened at Universal Studios Hollywood! Looking to visit in the next couple weeks to get my first rides!
