 Review of Lightning Racer @ Hersheypark
1 Rating Posted by: SLFAKE on 7/6/2001 8:36:00 AM
GCI did it again and another wooden masterpiece is in place to "frame" Hersheyparks Midway America section. Even the run out of the station (possibly the most beautiful station ever built) is fast. While not even being near verticle, the first drop gives that illusion. After the first drop, the second hill quickly followed by the first highly banked turn around is incredible. Then its a quick run through a tunnel, all the while the opposing train is roaring next to you. Then the speed really "seems" to pick up through one twisted mass of track that you need to see to believe. The dueling elements seemed to be lost on me, but at certain key points you are aware that there is another train very close to you and travelling very fast.

UPDATE: 6/14/2007 For the first tiem that I can remember Lightning Racer is showing a little roughness. Nothing bad by far, but noticable to anyone who remembered its smooth as glass first couple of years.
