    Banked best confirmed: **7.37 excitement** (intensity 9.71, 9 inversions, 16 drops, length 1046, similarity 0.372). Best coaster this round: a 14-lift steel twister with a 240-ft drop, two outbound vertical loops plus six return loops, and three booster-fed airtime hills on a long, low-intensity return leg — scoring 7.37 excitement (beating the previous round's 7.33) with intensity safely under 10.
