Mean Streak Dripping Oil?

I was on Mean Streak (Hit control-S and SAVE IT!) on Saturday and I got a drop of oil on my hand. I'm glad it wasn't my clothes... Is this normal, and is this a problem?


At the turn of the Millennium, there were signs. Was the something out there?... A mysterious force at work? Beyond words. Beyond comprehension. Beyond, beyond beyond… A natural force simply known as, Millennium Force. The future is riding on it.…

When I was riding Magnum one day, a rain drop landed on my hand.

What does rain have to do with dripping oil?

Whooa, the same thing happened to me on opening day, except I thought it came from Raptor (and it was on my leg). I was also riding MS around then I think, so it's a possibility.

Anyone else confirm/deny?

I got grease from the bearings on Raptor on my shorts once. Scratch that. Twice. I ride it too much.

It happens. Grease/oil isn't static. With moving parts, especially something moving at more than 50 mph, it's bound to come off somewhere, somehow.


1,146 rides on Raptor. Three rides in 2009.

Have you ever had Raptor "puke" on you? A friend of mine last year had a bunch of water and rust pour out of the tarp that covers the wheel assembly. She got a free T-shirt out of the deal though!
