Derby Racer was the name of two wooden roller coasters that operated at Revere Beach in Revere, Massachusetts. The first coaster was built in 1911[1] and demolished in 1936.[2] The second coaster of the same name was built in 1937 and demolished in 1948.[3] Both coasters were racing roller coasters, with side-by-side track pairs where two coaster trains would race each other around the circuit of the coaster.
