The John Allen designed Racer rollerocaster at Kings Island, Kings island, Ohio

With the care that's gone into The Racer it just effortlessly flies through the track.

The Racer is running so good that as soon as you fly into the brake run, roll into the station, and the lap bars are released it is real hard not to sprint out of the station and back into line for one more ride.

The Drop Tower is sadly a rare Intamin Gyro Drop ride over in Kings Island's "Action Zone"..

The Invertigo rollerocaster at Kings Island, Kings island, Ohio

The Drop Tower, Invertigo, and Action Zone are leftovers from Kings Island's Paramount Parks years.  The Drop Tower back then was called the Drop Zone Stunt Tower which was themed after a pretty forgettable Wesley Snipes movie called "Drop Zone" and Invertigo was known as "Face Off" after the completely insane Nicholas Cage and John Travolta action pic.

The Arrow Dynamics designed Bat suspended rollercoaster at Kings Island, Kings island, Ohio

Hidden in the back of the Action Zone is a must ride when visiting Kings Island.  The Bat is one of a handful remaining Arrow Dynamics designed Suspended Coasters.  It isn't boring and sedate like Ohio's other Arrow Suspended at Cedar Point.  This one has some teeth to it and will give you a great ride with plenty of directional changes and lots of "swing time".
