Hello Carol: We were there during our summer race season and the track was in the parking lot of this resort. Lots of screaming and noise from the roller coaster, I did not go for a ride, but the kids went ONCE! Thanks for leaving a message, Merna #9422194Merna L. Nobile May 22, 2011

Hi Phyllis: This was another stop on the tour and Dylan won back to back races and a $1,000 dollars. He was about 10 years old at the time. If you get time watch this thing on You Tube under Buffalo Bill's roller coaster.Wendy A. Blanchard May 24, 2011
Very Cool!! Im from NY and have been there once in my time. I did not go on the ride, Im not much of a roller coaster fan but my friends did and they loved it. Beautifully done, Its been a long time since I've seen it! #9426272
