I got a ride on this on this coaster and park's opening day, which also happened to be my 8th birthday. Its a shame that this compact coaster was torn down before RMC was given a chance to give it a breath of new life. The coaster sat proudly on the lot of Celebration city for 12 years of my childhood and early adulthood. The coaster came with one of Herchend's signature shallow curving first drops that allow for maximum airtime from the largest drop that follows. Non- enthusiasts would praise this wooden roller coaster for its comfort and fun head chopping moments under the lift. Similar to Ghost Rider or Iron Rattler, this ride had a straight-out-of-the-gate moment of laterals before the initial chainlift. This is the best wooden roller coaster any Herchend park has had in terms of smoothness and comfort while still allowing for some nice positive Gs and airtime moments

The ride that started the stratacoaster model, Xcelerator has a bathroom located just to the left. In there you will find Xelerator brand hand driers. The theming is top notch.

If you get to the park 10 or more minutes before open, you can typically get a quick ride on this piece of history. This coaster is so cool, having a portion that allows a cars to pass underneath, as well as an awesome first drop in the back row. The only beef I have with this ride is the turnaround. For some this portion of the ride might be good for them to catch their breath, but I found it to pull me out of the out of control feeling that this coaster does so well.

This compact coaster packs quite a bit of punch. The first drop was an interesting experience, but I couldn't personally help but think how the ride might have more intense forces with that extra length from the drop. I will say that the “spaghetti bowl” style layout this coaster boasts has one of the best cobra rolls in terms of head choppers and slight disorientation. It’s a lot of fun but not the best at the park

The layout of this roller coaster starts out standard for an invert. The quick turnaround from the drop into an inversion. But the second half of this ride is just absolute fun on a bun. The dip near the water is beautiful, and the finale double corkscrew is my favorite element on any coaster at Knott’s Berry Farm.

The day I went it was nearly a walk on on almost every ride I had. If you want a fun ride that you won’t get sick on, make sure your car is loaded with all 4 people. The layout is pretty tame with a balanced train. On the other end of the spectrum, If you get 2 people on one side of the car and 1 on the other, the cars on these free spinning trains really pick up speed for a more intense experience. One of my favorite rides
