The story of Steel Vengeance
Before Steel Vengeance, this ground belonged to Mean Streak. Cedar Point kept much of that great wooden frame and asked Rocky Mountain Construction to carry a new steel road through it, turning an old landmark in Frontier Town into a taller and faster undertaking. coasterpedia.net· coaster101.com
The announcement came on August 16, 2017, with a proud catalogue of figures: 205 feet high, a 200-foot first drop, 74 mph, 5,740 feet of track, and four inversions. For the visitor studying the Sandusky peninsula, it was another large piece of engineering added to Cedar Point’s long roll of coasters. coaster101.com
In 2018 the trains began carrying passengers through the timber, over the lift, and down the ninety-degree drop. Cedar Point’s own account presents the ride as a world-record breaker and as the first hybrid hyper coaster, a new classification made from steel track and wooden support. sixflags.com· coaster101.com
Its reception was immediate. Amusement Today named Steel Vengeance Best New Ride – Park in the 2018 Golden Ticket Awards, after four years of planning and two years of construction had delivered Cedar Point a new headliner for the lakeshore crowds. amusementtoday.com
