2013 Mitch Hawker Steel Poll


Recommended Posts

Well, I've sent mine- though I did not ride any adult steel coasters in 2013 due to the one amusement park visit that year being to Holiday World, and all they have is Howler, which I didn't see on the poll at all and I'm pretty sure that's due to the fact it's a kiddie ride (if it were an option, BTW, I would have ranked it last- it was boring and rougher than Raven & Legend which are wooden coasters!).

Anyhow, here's what my ballot looks like:

Yeah...I need to get to Cedar Point or something, and ride more steel coasters at some point. :P Alas, for now, this is my list.

AHH!!! Good point...ok. Done...and for the record, that E-Mail account I used already has lots of spam, I have another one...

Most of the family/junior coasters were removed from the ballot this year (though I'm not sure that Howler fit into any of the previous categories).
