I'm from Cincy and the loop has been removed and it's still closed from the last incident I believe. I had the chance to ride it several times and although it was good it still never really had the same thrill as The Beast. Something about the wood coaster and flying through the trees maybe. Find a vid of that if you can cuz that's the real one. I still go to KI a couple times a year. I live in Pigeon Forge now and really want to try out Dollywood's new wing-rider coaster.

@solidsarcasm - No, it was only built 12 years ago. too many folks complained about it because it was very intense. then there was an accident. Nobody killed, but whatever - they took out the loop, then tamed the track down. Now they can't get it insured and are afraid to reopen it. i call Bullshit.

Road it several times, back before it was "Paramount's" Kings Island and just regular old King's Island. I used to ride the red and blue racer over and over too. I am from Ohio...
Wooden coaters are bumpy as hell , but they rock.

and they're tearing it down why? I've always hated wooden rollercoasters as they ride so rough and tear up my back.

@keel131 - it's in Limbo. They haven't decided what to do with it yet... (as of the 2012 season)
