If you're there by 930 use any entrance BUT the main entrance. I prefer the wicked twister beach entrance, you can get ahead of the mob that way.

They do have a flashpass system. Wait till Raptor empties out later in the day. Try to get on Dragster early when it opens and Millenium Force.

Go on Chaos because there aren't that many out there. It is right across from Wicked Twister. Mean Streak is NOT worth it. If you don't have time, I would skip it if I were you. Of course, Max Air is really fun, and the new S&S is supposedly really long this year. People say it's not that long of a circuit.

You should get on Top Thrill Dragster first. It's super popular. I really like Gemini even though I think alot of people agree with me. It probably won't be that packed. Disaster Transport is pretty boring. It's air-conditioning though.

I don't think they have a flashpass system. Just the VIP program...

Don't miss out on the 25cent cotton candy.

Take the train from front station to the back station (mean streak) and get an upclose look at Project 07. Supports started going up yesterday...

I would only suggest getting in line for Skyhawk if BOTH sides are running. Otherwise the wait might not seem worth it. MaxAir is ALOT better in my opinion.

The Hot Summer Lights show isn't as good as the lazer show was, you might just want to keep hitting rides instead of seeing the show. The only good parts are the fireworks and you can see those from anywhere anyways, and if you're lucky you might be on a lift hill when some go off.

Cheese on a Stick is awesome, go with the pepperjack one across from Gemini.

If you've never done TTD front row, just do it. The ride is a thousand times better in front. I rode it for three years in other rows then finally did it front row this year and now I won't do it any other way.

If I can think of more I'll let you know but otherwise enjoy yourself and RIDE ON!
