I like Silver star's appearence, but Raging Bull just seems better with its more compact and twisted layout.
Id rather have Bull!

Never been on Silverstar, but by the looks of it, I think I'd like Bull better.

It's hard to say. I'd have to ride it. But Bull is deffinately my choice. I love my Raging Bull. I miss it right now!

I've ridden RB in person and SS in No Limits and I have to say RB is better (although SS is an airtime machine!)

Bull by quite alot.
Silver Star would win, but the Trims just kill the ride. Every set of trims on the ride hit at full strength, train ends up crawling over the hills.
Though I guess when all but 3 rides in the park are made by Mack Rides seeing as Mack Rides own the park, cant have the non-Mack outshine the rest of the stuff

Silver Star

I've read that Silver Star is trimmed to hell, even worse than Bull - so much so that you don't really get any airtime after the first drop. If this weren't the case, I'd say SS but for now I'll stick with Bull.
1. Voyage
2. X
3. Millenium Force
4. Top Thrill Dragster
5. Raging Bull
'05 Bull: 113
'06 Bull: lost count but not a lot

I've always thought Silver Star looked a bit cooler than Bull, but if it's trimmed that much then I'd say Bull.

Bull

Me too, Like the paint scheme and large drops but Raging Bulls more twisted and compact which is better now

silver star looks cool but takes up alot of space and is said to trimmed so that the ride sucks. i love rb , its compact and is alot of fun.
I'm running to Bull on opening day, anyone gets in my way and they'll get trampled.

I've heard trims on SilverStar really lowers airtime but its still decent. I have never ridden SilverStar, so I'll go with Bull.
