SteVeg 100 words or less.jpg

Steel Vengeance, the RMC rebirth of Mean Streak. This is a 1/40th scale, hand-built and 3D printed model that is in Cedar Points Frontier Town Museum, this is a video of it from the builders Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Bk0prRdFmEh/?taken-by=print_my_ride hopefully I can see it run this summer.

I was challenged by @dreemsteeem to do a 100-word post, due to the background information my count starts at the next paragraph. This will likely turn into a series of posts.


I'm a roller coaster junkie, to the point that I'm a Platinum Season Pass-holder and I've planned 4 trips to Cedar Point (my favorite park) this year already. I've been following the Mean Streak to Steel Vengeance conversion for as long as the rumors existed. When I got off the first time, I had a new #1 coaster on my list. Mean streak had been a fun ride, it had a great layout. RMC took that layout and pumped it full of coaster steroids. A butter smooth ride and flipping around inside the superstructure, it's action packed till the end.

Wow, that is one very cool coaster, and an amazing model of it as well!

Thanks, @dreemsteem, for pointing this out.
