Well we didn't go to Germany in the end...

but I can still add Grover's Alpine Express to the list. :lol:
 
2008
Voodoo, Dorney Park (I know it was relocated but still.)

Mine has gotten a whooping 100% bigger!

Before:
Piraten, 2008

Now:
Piraten, 2008
SpinSpider, 2009

Yay!
 
2009 -

Terminator Salvation, Six Flags Magic Mountain
Saw, Thorpe Park

I actually think that's it... still have Blue Fire and MAYBE RingRacer left to go, but, it's looking like the second one won't be open :(
 
I don't think it's horrible, but Psyclone, back before they let it fall apart was a better ride.

Essentially, all of the other GCI's I've ridden were better, IMHO. (I'm missing Prowler, Trot and Thunderbird.)
 
Spinball Whizzer
Stealth
Saw
Rage
Infusion
The Edge
Terminator

There may be more, but I can't be bothered to check. :)

Especially after Evel Kinevel.. I think Termy looks sexy. :)
