While visiting Frontier City yesterday and reading about Wildcat's history as a former ACE Classic, that got me thinking - how many ACE Coaster Classics have I ridden?

Further, ACE also created a Roller Coaster Landmark category in 2002 to commemorate modern advances in the roller coaster industry.

So, I did some searching, and found both lists:


In total, I have ridden:

ACE Coaster Classics

1. Big Dipper - Geauga Lake
2. Comet - Waldameer
3. Jack Rabbit - Kennywood
4. Thunderbolt - Kennywood

Former ACE Coaster Classics
*Revoked because of modern additions such as seat separators, head rests, or ratcheting lap bars.

1. Blue Streak - Cedar Point
2. Woodstock Express - Kings Island

Roller Coaster Landmarks

1. The Beast - Kings Island
2. Magnum XL-200 - Cedar Point
3. Jack Rabbit - Kennywood
4. Racer - Kings Island
5. Revolution - SFMM

So what's your count?
