It was rickety and noisy. The first drop made the whole ride worth it for me, though I thought my daughter would need therapy.
Yup, I am aware.

My mom was a big fan of an old wooden roller coaster who lived near Lake St Clair, on Jefferson Ave at 9 Mile in St Clair Shores, Mich. She spent so much time boating with her parents, and hanging around the marinas, she became friends w/the guys who worked at the amusement park. They let her walk/run the track while the park was closed, which frankly terrified her when she told the story as an adult 
Oh, man. Fond memories.
My grad school program had a picnic at Kennywood. Summer of 1996, maybe?
My friends and I rode a bunch of the wood coasters, including the Jackrabbit. I remember getting knocked around a lot.

One of my top five time machine fantasies is a ride on this.
Im surprised at how good the stabilization is on the camera that was being used to film this.
