 Review of Mean Streak @ Cedar Point
0 Rating Posted by: bumprnugit on 7/22/2004 9:24:00 PM
I first rode Mean Streak in its debut season, and although at the time I thought it was a good ride, it never seemed to live up to its potential. Ive always thought of it as a &quot.....family-ride&quot..... Texas Giant. As far as the ride roughness, most coasters from the Curtis-Dinn era that use 2 seat PTC trains seem to track lousy as time goes on (The Predator probably being the worst offender). a freight train down a dirt road would be smoother. Now with the trim brakes, the second-half drops seem even more shallow. CP would have been better off building two medium size woodies rather than this giant disappointment. Rename it the &quot.....Yellow Streak&quot..... (its made with southern yellow pine - get it?)

*****rating update- score changed from 5 to 2*****
I rode MS on 08/28/08 and it was even worse than I remembered. The ride op dispatched the train with the caveat we would not only be enjoying a wooden rollercoaster, but receiving free chiropractic manipulation as well. If you call be whacked repeated with the hard rubber seatbacks enjoyment. I vividly recall thinking after going down the second drop, if I could have jumped have this PoS, I would have.
