I must agree with Matt and Buck here. In all my years of riding,
nothing has ever come close to the intensity of the original Mexico
City Racer. Nothing. Ever. Those beautiful Century Flyers must have
been built like tanks to withstand the sustained power and upward force
produced by certain sections of this amazing NAD ride.

Surely, there is a very special place in Hell reserved for those
responsible for the heinous butchering of classic coasters.

Definatly.
Not to mention the insurance companies that jack up the insurance makeing
the coasters more expensive to operate.
And the lawyers (that are ultimatly connected to everything)
And the governments that try to "regulate" these coasters and ban the
high-g-force coasters that coaster fans love.
And the media outlets that make it look like these coasters are unsafe
monsters that should be torn down.
