Racer (Right) • Kings Island

Airtimes Nice surprise! Fun

This a really fun and historic racing woodie with some great airtime and the roughness adds a ton of character to it.

Fun

This review is for the forward racer. Slightly worse than going backwards.

Airtimes

Racer at Kings Island was surprisingly smooth. Neither side was hugely different from the other. This is a fun classic wooden coaster that is in good condition 50 years later.

Rattle Discomfort

An old woodie which is rather uncomfortable to ride and with better offers in the park is not really holding to it's age

Airtimes Nice surprise! Smoothness Dead spots

A pretty smooth ride with some great floater at the begging, nothing special but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

Airtimes Smoothness Dead spots

This is a very smooth wooden coaster after the retrack and has solid floater airtime. It’s boring in some spots though.

I rode this when they had the trains turned around backwards. I believe I remember correctly that the right side was backwards and the left was forward. Forward was good. Backwards, in the last seat, was epic. It did exactly what we all want all coasters to do--it just delivered fun. I literally laughed the entire time. I had to wipe tears of joy off my face after every ride. I believe we rode it 10 times in one weekend. It was one of the best ride experiences I have ever had.

Airtimes Fun Duration

The better side of Racer, at least if I remember correctly. Doesn't deserve the hate Mr Roller Coasters gives it.

Airtimes Fun

Not very rough both sides of racer are good has some good air

Airtimes Fun Smoothness

Airtimes Fun Layout Rattle

Solid wooden racing coaster. Its dosent have more rattle then its opposite and there are better racers out there but overall good pacing and airtime's here and there. Its a good addition to Kings Island and its an equal layout to its counter part and is a must do with your family

Airtimes Location Layout

The retracking treated the red side a lot worse than the blue one, and I wouldn't ride this one on a wheel seat. Still a good ride with great floater and fun races, but the bottoms of the hills are a jolt to the lower back.
