because i would like to see what has all been changed or fixed to The Beast well, pretty much all that has been changed on The Beast is/are the trains, the banking of the turn after the first drop, and the skid trim breaks have been replaced with magnetic trim breaks. and please correct me if i am wrong.

i thought there were 5,280ft in a mile? so wouldn't that make it over a mile long insted of nearly a mile long? -
when i was in 6th grade one of my friends said that the shocks on the flight deck trains were computerized so they pushed out and pulled in at only certain times. and also that last season they sped up flight deck ten miles an hour.
