- Odd that this topic should come up...
-
-
- I was talking to a coaster-buddy last night on the phone when the topic
- of "knee-clearance" came up. He said that the cars on the Psyclone were
- the roomiest cars he had ever seen -- bar none. We compared them to
- other coaster cars (*especially the knee-cramming, claustrophobia-inducing
- view-blocking phone-booths on the Texas Cyclone ;-) *)
-
- He said they rode well too...although the Psyclone ain't much of a
- ride (in his opinion)...especially compared to the Georgia Cyclone, and
- the original...
