Miller and built by Charlie Mach, the Racer is one of the world last standing Mobius coasters. A Mobius coaster is a coaster with one continuous track, when you enter the train on the left side of the track, you will return on the right side. The Racer currently features 3 PTCI trains, the blue train, the red train and the green train. They are made up of 4 cars each in the 3 seat standard style.
