Amusement Park and Roller Coasters

I was wondering how many people are into amusement parks and in particular roller coasters. I'm going through roller coaster withdrawal right now.

The largest regional amusement park in the US - Great Adventure - is a half hour from where I live and now I can't go there until they reopen in March.

They have on their website though - an animated video of their new roller coaster they're building Superman: Ultimate Flight.

It looks cool. You ride it head first. My favorite two are currently Medusa and Nitro. Nitro is 230ft high and the first drop is 215ft almost straight down and goes 80+ mph.

Can't wait until opening day - I need to be one of the first on Superman. For the time being, I guess I'll have to content myself with watching the Nitro and Superman videos that I downloaded.

Great Adventure also has the largest drive thru safari outside of Africa and Hurricane Harbor - a huge water park.
