    Boss is amazing. It sits in my top 10 out of 250. It's not the smoothest, but far from the roughest coaster I've ridden (Hades 360). It could use some re-tracking by Gravity Group or GCI's Titan Track or in-house. Keep RMC away from this beauty they would ruin it (they almost bricked a wood coaster once).

    • @themeparkmark1
      @themeparkmark1  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I'd be ok with a retracking! Some sort of work is definitely needed! I honestly believe though that if RMC'd, this could rival Steel Vengeance!

      @@ThrillSeekersandHellRaisers Agree to disagree, I guess 🤷‍♂
      I will say that from my personal experiences in riding both the original and RMC (Colossus/TC, Wildcat/WR), I felt that the RMC'd version was infinitely better than the original. Now, do I think every classic coaster should be RMC'd? Certainly not. If efforts can be made to restore/preserve and keep the original running like normal, then they should do it! However, if a woodie is becoming so rough and the park is doing nothing to keep it running like a woodie, then the only other options I see are either demolition or RMC transformation. In which case, RMC should definitely step in! Based on the layout and roughness of the Boss, it could easily be a top tier RMC! Just my two cents for what it's worth, anyways
