I was just looking and I saw Speed monster was the first intamin with 3 cars and If I am right I think it is because of the Norweigen loop.

I too was unaware that anyone was disputing this.

No way, dude. Maverick was totally the first. I don't care what else is out there, Maverick is the best and there's no way that someone else used any of Maverick's innovation before it was built. No way.

There.... now start this thread over putting my post first....

Since this topic is obviously going nowhere I will ask a completely random question...

Jeff, what is that plate of apparent deliciousness in your avatar? Judging by the expression on your face, you seem to enjoy it.

Look at what I posted no where in that does it say that someone was arguing that it just states a fact.

Mean Streak wasn't the first wooden coaster to have headrests, either, but no one really cares about that either...

Just sayin'

Why? The headrests have nothing to do with the over-braking that absolutely kills the ride.

And they do not take away from the aesthetically pleasing view that it creates in LHP.

Nah, Mean Streak was killed by design. The over-braking just tries to stop it from putting itself out of its misery.
