Colossus, Wooden roller coaster in Valencia, California.
The dual-tracked roller coaster stretches over 5,000 feet of track, featuring two lift hills and multiple high-speed drops at Six Flags Magic Mountain.
International Amusement Devices constructed Colossus in 1978, establishing records as the tallest and fastest wooden roller coaster with two drops exceeding 100 feet.
The roller coaster gained recognition through appearances in National Lampoon's Vacation and Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park during the late 1970s.
The ride underwent conversion to steel tracks in 2014, allowing for additional inversions while maintaining the original wooden structure beneath.
The Möbius loop layout enables two trains to operate simultaneously on separate tracks, creating a racing experience when dispatch timing aligns correctly.
