I have one complaint with your list...American Eagle should be 0, not 67. It's too good for the 1-whatever ratings.

Do you want me to post my whole list? I just posted my top 20, plus where American Eagle was and my last woodie. I've ridden 92 woodies.

Here is a link to my ballot:

2 T Express - Everland
3 Boulder Dash - Lake Compounce
4 The Voyage - Holiday World
5 Phoenix - Knoebel's
6 Ravine Flyer II - Waldameer
7 El Toro - Freizeitpark Plohn
8 Balder - Liseberg
9 Troy - Toverland
10 Colossos - Heide Park

11 Prowler - Worlds of Fun
12 Thunderhead - Dollywood
13 Thunderbird - PowerPark
14 Twister - Grona Lund
15 Fireball - Happy Valley Song
16 Tremors - Silverwood
17 Raven - Holiday World
18 Wooden Warrior - Quassy
19 Joris en de Draak W - de Efteling
20 Hades - Mount Olympus

It also appears that the GCI in China, Mountain Flyer would've been #1
but it had too few riders.

Full list over here:

Time to freshen up on your steel coasters, won't be long until
you can vote for the steel poll.

And of course thanks to everybody who submitted a ballot, the more
people help, the better the poll result!

Pretty sure you could perform better than a morbidly obese man but whatever.

Meh, at least Boulder Dash is still up in the top 3.

And hyyyper, Mountain Flyer would have been #2, not #1.

although I love El Toro, Its not my favorite wood coaster I've been on, it just doesn't give me what other wood coasters give me. ITs an amazing ride just not a true woodie to me
What are these for?
