The New For 2008 Evel Knievel Rollercoaster at Six Flags St. Louis, Eureka, Missouri

Evel Knievel's sign looks cool enough but I thought the tire tracks up it was a really nice touch.

Ok, enough of the sign let's get onto the meat and bones...the coaster itself.  Like all of Great Coaster International's coasters Evel Knievel is a twisted tangle of track.

There are more than a few twists and turns in Evel Knievel's 2700 feet of track.

Bond and I went out mid-afternoon to get our swim suits as we had planned on hitting Hurricane Harbor and while we were heading back into the park we saw Evel Knievel heading up the lift hill for a test run.  Yes, like a true coaster geek my heart skipped a beat but so what, this coaster looks like fun.
