May 27

Monday night I read on gttp about Dragster’s closing but still went to the Point on Tuesday the 27. I am very glad I did so because I could not have asked for a better day and a more insane ending to a day.

I met Eric and Aaron at CP around 9:30 and our day began. They already had a few rides on Magnum but I had one on MF and one on Mantis so all was well.

We rode MF 3 times, Mantis 2 times, Raptor 2 times, MS once, Magnum once, CCMR once, WT once, Corkscrew 2 times, Gemini broke right as we were in the station, and BS more times then I could count.

At the end of the night we went to the Blue Streak to end the night. It was around 7 and we were going to ride that a few times and end on Raptor. Well BS had no line and was running VERY FAST so we got to stay on for a solid hour of re-rides. Nobody was in the line so we stayed in the front row for most of the time. It was raining and it hit us hard but it also felt so good to completely own a train. We easily got 30 rides in without ever getting off.

Thank you to the awesome BS crew!

After that Eric and Aaron left to go to their cars and I went to Raptor for one last ride of the night. It was the fastest I have ever seen it go. The mid course was off and it flew! What a great way to end the night!

BTW- Missed ya Dan!

I thought I was just making it up, but I noticed raptor was really fast... so fast that it almost hurt in the back. the G's it pulled were insane...

And the mid course was off, so after that point, it seemed even faster than fast!

Yea it was very intense and fast! I loved it :)

Owned a train? We pretty much owned the ride! I didn't see anybody else in the other train, except maybe one or two people.

I also thank the Blue Streak crew!
