of all the coaster companies/manufacturers that are listed above, which one is your favorite?? mine personally is B&M and Premeir rides..... also i know that most of you would say ....hhhmmmmmm let me guess .... oh yeah!!! B&M....... am i right??????lol
"What's happenen' easy-E!?"
Disney Imagineers.
Of the ones that make the actual coasters, anything thats not Intamin. Last edited by Virtua Tennis on July 30th, 2004, 7:26 am, edited 2 times in total.
B&M, definitely.
Yeah B&M because they definatly have a unique track style and train seats. You never have a bad ride experience with them.
You see I like the cubs and the white sox. If it came down to the world series I'd pick the cubs.
B & M, i like all of their coasters because of the great inversions and air time.
I would have to say B&M and Premier. B&M because of IW, BTR, SUF, and Georgia Scorcher. Premier because of Mr. Freeze. It's that good. We need Premier. Vekoma "regular" (circular track) coasters are not enjoyable for me (At least the two I've been on, Ninja and T2). I'm sure Spacely's is really good.
"I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
Intimin stand up track is almost the same as B&M track. As for my favorite, Arrow fo shizzle. Top 5 wood-5-Goliath 4-Ravine Flyer II 3-Phoenix 2-Voyage 1-El Toro
Top 5 Steel- 5-Velocicoaster 4- Maverick 3- Fury 325 2-Steel Vengeance 1-X2 Coaster Count: 444
These arent in any order but my favorite are Intamin, Arrow Dynamics, and Giovanola. I do like B&Ms but they havent given me some of the best rides.
^Gotta agree, B&M's always give decent rides and you can always count on them to give a good ride, but these crazy rides that other manufactuors make totally blow people (Like me) out of the water.

B&M, because I am so used to riding their rides here at SFGAm. Intamin I also like because of Millennium Force, and Superman: Ride of Steel.
B&M are the best.
Ride Count 2006: Vu:4 RB:2 RC:1 Demon:4 Batman:3 IW:5 S:UF:1 Viper:7 Eagle:3 KC:3 GD:1 RLD:2 Scenic Railway:4 YC:4 Logger's: 2 Whirligig:1 HFM:3 Orbit:2 Condor:3 FF:1 Chubasco:1
It would have to be B&M for overall ride quality, safety, and reliability. I would have to give Vekoma credit for the idea of building DejaVu.
 And Premier(or whoever) for taking over.
That is because B&M used to work for Intamin. I believe it was their track design, and when they left Intmin the track designed followed them.
I would have to say B&M is the best because they have unique tracks and trains, and I love the roar of the B&M. I also like premier because they made The Revenge of the Mummy, which is an unique ride experience, very exciting.

Marathon down, Goofy to go.
B&M 1st then Premier a very close 2nd. Something I've noticed from my many rides on Freeze is that premier uses a similar track shape to B&M, and when the Train goes by it makes a very similar sound to the B&M roar, only a little lower pitch. Anyone know anything about this?
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.
I noticed that to. Weird!
It is possible that the Premier track is made here in the states by the same company that B&M contracts to make their track. FYI...B&M Track is made here in the states for installations that are done here in the states.
Intamin is my favorite by far
http://rctgrotto.coastergrotto.com/file.jsp?argId=76 my first rct3 park. its ok but please try it.
B&M, Vekoma,and Intamin.
I dont know any premere rides. It's green. It's blue. It's all over you! Enjoy your ride on Déjà Vu
Mr. Freeze in Six Flags St. Louis
Batman and Robin Chiller in New Jersey http://rctgrotto.coastergrotto.com/file.jsp?argId=76 my first rct3 park. its ok but please try it.
Even though they aren't the safest or the most reliable, I'd have to go Intamin. Although I do love my Beemers.
I'll agree with B&M Floorless Wanter, the Mr. Freeze type rides, and B&M.
Out of Colorado in the Piston home red blue and white tonight the 6'3 Chauncey BA....BA....BA.....Bilups!
People voting for Intamin? Bleh, need I remind people of:
----------------------- S:TE- Opened a year late, Several power and structural problems. Don't even get me started. V2 SFMW- Had to be redesigned due to being built to tall for the locals. Even now has a lot of power problems, a lot of downtime, and a de-activated holding brake due to problems with that to. V2 SFGAm- Tons of downtime, supports modified. S:UE- Overheating problems, a lot of downtime, supports modified. Steel Venom- Overheating problems, modified supports. Xcelerator- Opened over a month late, Tons of train catch and overheating problems. Supports also had to be added. TTD- Hydrolic problems (with the fluid), train catch problems, cables snapped more than once (one fraying and hitting people on the ride), just name out anything that involves a coasters operation and chances are TTD has problems with it. Storm Runner- A lot of train catch problems, tophat better designed then Xcels though (so it doesn't have the structural problems). Wicked Twister- Once again a lot of overheating, tons of downtime, and supports had to be added. Millennium Force- Has to be bottled every morning to warm it up or else it will valley. Also the cables snapped before. S:RoS SFA- Chain has snapped more than once. S:RoS SFDL- Chain has snappd, brake failure, rider ejected. S:RoS SFNE- The stupid thing can't even operate with a full train when it's hot out (they have to send 1 car empty), ejected a rider, brake failure. Volcano TBC- Opened half a year late, overheating problems. California Screamin'- Overheating and tons of blocking problems. Disney maintenence modified it to work better now. Perilous Plunge- Opened 4 months late, chain has snapped more than once, wheel problems, ejected a rider. Hydro- Ejected a rider, don't hear much about (probably has problems similar to Plunge). -------------------------------------- So when it's all set and done, Intamin hasn't made 1 good engineered ride within the last few years, not even their freggin water rides! Yet people still think they're the best  .
If I'm correct, isnt American Eagle by Intamin also? I doubt I'm right though.
