 Review of Blue Streak @ Cedar Point

I could say alot of great things about this coaster.....it was my first coaster, wooden or steel (other than kiddie steel coasters). the first ride i believe was with the buzz bars & a seatbelt. or maybe no belt, im not to sure about that though. I remember when I was young believing that a coaster was capable of jumping off the tracks which really added to the scare, the airtime on this coaster did just that.

So, is your 10 based on how this thing rode back when it had buzzbars and was in a little bit better shape? Blue Streak seems like it was once a really good ride. Its actually in OK shape considering its age. There are a number of newer coasters in far worse shape. Still, I dont think Blue Streak produces that much airtime these days. It doesnt go that fast, and the restraints are restrictive.

honestly ginzo, i would say my rating would basically sum up all my early blue streak rides. i actually thought about giving this a 9, thinking to myself im a little 10 happy, but this coaster has a special place in my heart. & it delivers a great airtime assault. i have heard this year blue streak is running very fast. also i am not a big fan of technology upgrades such as restrictive lap bars on classics. today maybe i might rate this ride an 8.5 or 9, but i have not been to the point is several years.

Ive had maybe 3 cycles on Blue Streak this year. It definitely has a case of not being allowed to live up to its potential. The ride itself is in pretty darn good shape, but I just dont think CP cares enough to keep it running optimally.

maybe i would not consider individual lap bars & seat dividers a tech. upgrade or whatever...but i do agree it is in great shape. have those cables always been there since day one on the structure of the turnaround? i dont understand why parks making milions dont constantly maintiain there woodies very well, ex: colossus-mean streak-williams grove cyclone (but i understand williams was not exactly a gold mine) but u catch my drift>>>
