Well, I'm gonna make this one short, because it looks like everyone's sick of reading about Coastermania.
I just hav eto say, this was the most satisfying CP trip I ever had. Every ride was running great! The only disappointment I had was on the Mantis becuase the ride op told me I couldn't wait for the front becuase it was full, EVEN THOUGH it didn't even stretch to the rear of the station like I've seen in the past.
I found my favorite seat on the Mean Streak. Red train, third seat...smooth! Oh, and don't ride the yellow train, it's the roughest.
As for MF, it was awsome as usual I got to ride the front at night. Maybe next year, they'll turn the lights out for us.
Biggest surprise: MAGNUM. This baby has come back! After the disappointing ride I had May 7th, Magnum definately recieved more points in my book than on May 7th. Overall, I really can't choose between Magnum, MF, or Raptor. They are all great coasters!
I noticed the same thing about magnum. It seemed to be running at its best ever for me anyway.

I agree Hooper, Magnum was running top notch on Friday!

I had my best EVER ride on Magnum. A windy midnight night ride with no brakes in the ejector seat. NEED I SAY MORE!?
The Marina gate was COMPLETELY UNMANNED as Gooober and I arrived just after 5:30AM. There was noone around still at 6:30(the official time) so we politely let ourselves in and ran to MF.
To our surprise there was only 1 person there. An employee on his day off. Needless to say, we both got to ride front car on MF. This was after 12 previous attempts.
In our opinion the front car IS THE BEST for airtime! Our whole day was great and as expressed before, the rides were running great.
What a joy we experienced.....The 1st GTTP people to ride MF at Coastermania(we believe) and in the front seat to boot. Thank you Cedar Point for a great event.
It was amazing how many people we saw at the Ultimate Rollercoaster event at PKI the next day that had also attended Coastermania. Attending Coastermania running on 3 1/2 hrs of sleep and the URC event at PKI with only 4 hours of sleep makes for 1 tired puppy:)
34 hrs in 2 parks in 2 days with almost no sleep....Well, I guess we are crazy, but what a weekend.
