One Man’s Rollercoaster Quest For New Suzuki Reno

Suzuki-Reno.jpg

The thrill jockeys here at Winding Road enjoy roller coasters as much as the next guy, and with Ohio's Cedar Point in close proximity to our Ann Arbor offices, we're uniquely positioned to indulge in some of the nation's best. Having said all that, we're pretty sure Thomas Welsher of Webster, New York has us beat.

After all, Welsher rode a Six Flags rollercoaster 395 times over three days to win a humble little Suzuki Reno. And he didn't even win the car outright… he simply won a two-year lease.

Admittedly, the Reno is a snappy Italdesign'd dresser, and a pretty reasonable subcompact all-around. But 395 times, with only a 20 minute break for Mother Nature every three hours? Thanks, but no thanks.
