This non monstrosity is the High Speed Thrill Coaster.  Yes it's not that big but WOW it really packs one heck of a punch.

You see the High Speed Thrill Coaster (HSTC) is not your everyday run of the mill small coaster...this is the last remaining coaster made by a company called Overland.  They made this wicked creation with one fast lift chain so as you go flying faster and faster over the lift during several circuits.

This is the hilly section of the HSTC taken from the lift.  With being "launched" up the lift you go barreling over these hills which produce hyper-ejection seat airtime.  That's why kids aren't allowed to ride this because if they did they would surely end up out of the train before reaching the station.
