Thrill of the Week
Welcome to Coaster Crazy's Thrill of the Week featured section. The main purpose of this weekly event was to give the thrill ride seekers a place in which they could learn about the history and power of some of the greatest thrill rides, not just roller coasters, and theme parks in the world. We hope you enjoy this section and updates will appear every Monday.
