My Roller Coaster Track Record

I'm a member of the American Coaster Enthusiasts. Naturally, that means I have my coaster track record on my personal site. I dream of one day having 600 or so like some ACE members, but for now, I'm just having fun adding to it!

Parks are listed the order I visited them, and I've noted my top favorite wooden and steel coasters.

(And what do you do about twin-track coasters? Do you count tracks, or do you count coaster structures? Hmmm. My policy was originally to count structures, but noting the difference between racing and dueling coasters, I counted the dueler as two separate tracks. (I recently rode my first one and each side was distinct.) I might go back through and count the racers as two coasters after some more thought.)
