Introducing my entry...

Magic Mouse XXXXXL

A 300ft tall spinning reverchon mouse.

Unfortunatley Planet Coaster is rubbish at simulating spinning coasters.

But it hits 81 mph.

Awesome submission @MattyH! A Reverchon spinning wild mouse is an incredibly original response to the brief, and it seems like you got a lot of length out of the site, with a fair amount of spinning within your ride too!
 
There's no artificial sweeteners with this. Mandy didn't cancel Hot Ice just to build something a little bit taller and faster than Thorpe, but something that actually has a full layout. There's no slamming into the brake run a few seconds after cresting the top of the lift hill here (although admittedly, it probably does need a bigger brake run).

Called Full Sugar Pepsi 95.

95 mtrs tall tall, 95mph.

Runs 3 trains.

Excellent submission @mo237! Your ride has some great inversions, as well as some fun pops of airtime!
 
A B&M Giga isn't exactly a budget option, but Mandy has got a bit of help from her friends at the Conservative Party....

Tory 315
B&M Giga
315ft
93mph

B&M's tend to take up a lot of space but sod it. Features some big swooping airtime moments and low to the ground, high speed twists and turns.

Awesome submission @RicketyCricket! Your ride looks to be packed with airtime, and some of those manoeuvres are very unique for a B&M!
