Hmm I think excalibur is a better coaster then the ones at Santa's village or story land. If you classify funtowns coaster as family, I would classify these two coasters as kiddie. I like all coasters but comparing the rapid transit to Excalibur in my view is apples and oranges. I would call wildcat and Yankee cannon ball far more intense as well. I would lump them as moderate thrill rides.

While I know what your getting at I didn't have room for that many categories. I pretty much left thrill coasters for those with inversions or were very intense.
