Disaster Transport (Cedar Point) vs. Scream (Six Flags Magic Mountain)( Cedar Point and Six Flags )
In the 1980s, Magic Mountain briefly had a steel toboggan coaster called Sarajevo Bobsleds built by the same manufacturer. While Magic Mountain wisely realized the error of its ways, Cedar Point tried to literally cover up the problem by enclosing its puttering bobsled coaster and adding an aptly appropriate disaster theme. That means my nod goes to the parking lot-themed floorless Scream coaster, bottom, which was built so quickly in 2003 that Magic Mountain famously refused to even paint over the parking spaces on the pavement below. Winner: Scream. Score: Cedar Point holds on to the lead 9-8.
