Carowinds, in the Charlote NC area, had a design based on the Rebel Yell / Racer 75 called Thunder Road. two tracks mirrored each other and one side ran the train backwards.

It was a tough call between riding in the last car on the forwards side or anywhere on the backwards side, but on slower days when everyone was standing in line for the stand-up coasters, you didn't have to choose. Those were good summers.
