Yeah there is a place here in SoCAL called Six Flags Magic Mountain...They have a few VERY killer ones there. I have not been there in ages, but I LOOOVVVEEE roller coasters.
This one here looks a BIT TOO NUTS for me, but I am sure I would love it once I rode it.
NO amusement parks where you live?...

speaking of rollercoasters, there is a guy who wants to build one on the site of the old World Trade Center in New York.

my favourite was the mouse at alton towers, it was blatantly dangerous, and actually someone died (?) and it was shut down...
thats why dodgy funfair rides are always more scary than decent rollercoasters, coz theres the fear of actual death when the arm shears off and ploughs into the crowd

Precisely- Rolelrcoasters in big theme parks are "fun" because you know how safe they are- ones in little parks are shit scary as you know they've never been safety checked and are coming apart at the seams. 2 Kids in my school got cut to ribbons on a dodgy one on a schoold trip- one of them still has a hell of a lot of scar tissue on his face as a result.
I've always thought something like Alton Tower's "Air" ride should be used as an alternative to monorails for around town journeys. So much quicker and fun...
