btw evertime i see the BlueStreak I am reminded of the old roller coaster at Cedar Point,
which is probably as old as me lol
And the Corkscrew......I was there for the opening of the first Imax theater. How old am I?

Pete will probably chime in on Monday, he's in Cleveland.

I would put the Corkscrew around 1973 or so...perhaps the Imax at about 1975....I worked at Cedar Point the summers of 1984 and 85 while I was in college. I must have rode the Bluestreak and the other coasters a dozen of times on my days off...The Gemini is ok but it did not rattle your bones like the Streak.The best way to ride the Bluestreak is in the back car without the seatbelt! Is it still there I have not been there since 1986.....

Yeah, mid-seventies. I would have been 10-12 years old. Long time ago.

I think both of you Leftys need to be put on Spinout for a couple of hours.
