I'm gonna nit pick for a second but a fan turn isn't over banked as it doesn't go beyond 90°.

Otherwise at 6 minutes it wasn't that bad.

I did realize that the part with Fury was unnecessary.
However, it is done. And It turned out okay. Thanks for the opinions

Now, whenever I edit the Park footage, I'm aiming for 10-15 minutes for each video... hopefully. But we'll see.

EDIT: When I was recording the audio, I wasn't planning to say overbanked, but it kinda came out.

Drop the 1's and we're good to go.

With that said, it wasn't the lap bars. We saw them working on the air gates for the entire time.

Just going off of what I was told from someone who was sitting in the train when they couldn't get the lap bars to lock in place so they had to get back off.

It is tempting me to move Fury 325 down to the #2 spot...
But I think LR will stay as my #2 favorite though.

You know, you can make them both #1 since Fury 325 is steel and LR is wood. Most of us have separate lists for our top steel and top wooden coasters. The ride experiences are generally so much different that I don't overlap wood and steel coasters.

With that being said, there are some awesome wooden coasters out there. It will take a lot for LR to break my top three. Not that I don't think LR won't be great...

[Edwardo]

I'm excited to compare LR to El Toro and Voyage, my top wooden coasters. Love me some RMCs. They're taking over most of my top spots for wood or steel.

Anyone wanna swing by ol' Ethan's house and take him to Dollywood? I can promise that I'll shut up for at least a quarter of the trip.

As much as I liked Outlaw Run (and I rode it before they improved the shin bars), I'm really expecting Lightning Rod to crack my top 5. It will be very hard to displace Voyage, Phoenix, Boulder Dash, or Ravine Flyer, but I'm hoping it is up there in that tier.

[arby]

Ironically, 3 of those are in my top 5 wood coasters. Despite growing up 45 minutes from Waldameer, I have yet to go there or ride Ravine Flyer. One of these days...

I rode lightning rod back in June and didn't like it tbh I feel like it's a one trick pony for me

[arby]

I'm curious to understand why you consider it a one trick pony? Looking at the course, it seemed like a very interesting layout.

I consider TTD to be a one trick pony as it's essentially a launch and that's it. There are numerous elements on LR that look like it will be a lot of fun.

I'm not sure if it was just a bad ride or something but the only thing I liked was the quad down and that was it.(The only coaster at the park I felt for me that was top 10 worthy was mystery mine)

Totally being honest with you - After reading that, I wont take your word on anything you say about coasters, lol.

[Jonathan]

Yeah, I think we probably have completely different preferences on rides (which is fine!). Mystery Mine is probably my least favorite coaster at Dollywood and Thunderhead is probably in my top ten. Last time I went though a couple first timers I was with loved Mystery Mine so much that they went to ride it at the end of the day while the rest of us were marathoning Thunderhead.

Couldn't marathon thunderhead one time was enough for me

[FamousAmos]

I absolutely loved Thunderhead, especially after that good rain storm they had that day. I rode it more than any of the others there. I would have rode Lightning Rod more, but we wanted to experience the whole park (or as much as we could). I tried to ride again, but lightning prevented that and we left at 7pm.
