PTR: Holiwood Nights 2012

HWN 2012 was amazing.  Great weather (too cold for me to frolic in the water park, but whatevs).  Voyage was insane.  So was Legend.  And Raven was solid.

I decided to do the walk back for once.  You get up close and personal with the wood at Holiday World.

I love Legend.  Always have.  More than Raven.  It was running INSANE this year.  On Friday my friend Rob and I got 2 back to back backseat rides with no one else in the train.  In the dark.  Amazing.

It's so purty.

But seriously, Legend was Killing.  It.

It was down when we went to ride.  Oh well.  It was just okay when I rode 2 years ago.

I had room in my car but I was worried about my MPG.

Such an imposing structure.

You get a whole new perspective of the area the ride takes up on the walk back.

And lots of shots otherwise unpossible.

I think I only got one daytime ride and that was Friday before the park closed.  Its good during the day.  It KILLS at nite.  Sickening.

All of the new track work was much appreciated.

This thing was tiny.  I still freaked out.

I personally like Raven over Legend. But it's soooo close. I could never fault someone for thinking Lengend. I think a laterals person will always prefer legend. I like laterals but not like some people. I love the pursuit ending of raven.

I actually think the greeatness of voyage brings down the other two coasters. They are both up there with the greats for me.
