My favorite roller coaster was Raging Bull and V2. Then I went to Cedar Point and now Top Thrill Dragster is my favorite. I want to hear yours. It can be at any park. :D

Well, Hi!

Okay, you may want to read the rules real quick. You're really not supposed to put your own sites in a post, it's considered spam.

Second, ask a moderator to put this thread in the "General" forum becuase this thread is for everywhere,not just SFGAm.

And finally, my favorite coaster anywhere (so far) is Chang at SFKK.

#1 Raven at HW followed by #2 Voyage at HW

Steel is probably Expedetion GeForce at Holiday Park or SROS at SFNE, I flip flop often. Though steel probably wouldnt make my top 10 at all if I had to rank on just one list.
Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder

My favorite coaster is American Eagle. No disrespect to AE, but I'm going to Cedar Point and I'm sure that it will change soon.

I cant tell u much about Cedar Point because when we went we saw a tornado near Sandusky Mall and it was raining hard so we left. All i can say is ride Top Thrill. Im not being brave because im scare of anything above 250 feet. But i rode it and i put my hands up once i relize the drop wasnt bad at all! Its easier than Demon. Thats kinda sad. The drop doesnt give you that nasty feeling in your stomach at all. Its kinda weird. Sorry, but it beats American Eagle by 100% and Raging Bull's by 10%.

You know, I would say Deja Vu, but I think the title of favorite roller coaster would better fit a ride that is a heck of a lot more reliable and down a lot less often. So I guess I'll say Raging Bull. If anybody here has never rode Bull in the very back, DO IT! I swear, in my opinion, the feeling you get rivals the same feeling you get when you go through SUF's pretzel loop. Of course, if you don't like the feeling you get in that pretzel loop and hate Superman because of it, you might want to stay away! :wink:
Hee hee, look. I have a signature thingy um, thing.

Hmm, you don't like that feeling in your stomach, yet you love TTD? Yeah, I've never rode it seeing as how I've never been to Cedar Point (some day, hopefully), but I assume the feeling you get when you get launched at over 100 mph (if I'm correct) and especially when you go down that huge drop is even worse that Bull's first drop. I mean, isn't the height of TTD like twice or more as tall as Bull's drop? Or do they use some kind of magic to make the ride feel a lot less intense than I think it should? :?

Its hard to explain i was scared to death when i rode it and it launches 123 m.p.h. and the drop is weird it doesnt give u the feeling at all! easier then demon no kidding! i dont know why it doesnt give u the feeling, strange. And the drop is 423 ft. and gets done less than raging bull drop plus i think u dont get feeling becase it has to do with something with its g's not sure though.

That IS strange! A drop of what, 400 some feet? And it's easier to handle than the Demon drop? Out of all the coasters I've rode except Whizzer at GAm (I never rode Spaceley's, too old, and never rode Ragin' Cajun), it's no doubt the easiest to handle. Uhhhhhhh!

Ya once u ride it u will believe me trust me its easier than whizzer. i thought it was just me than i ask my dad and he said he didnt get the feeling either. surprisingly i put my hands up once i relized its not bad at all! weird i know. Wild cat wich is 55 ft is scary than top thrill it shouldnt be called top "(THRILL)" dragster.

When you say it beats AE by 100%, that's personal opinion. You are entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to mine, so I just have to say that in my opinion you're wrong. AE has a lot of emotional value to me and for that I will love it forever. :)

Its very cool! It is a good ride no big drops but a lot of turning drops. The scenery is awesome! Theres like robots moving and the line is black light. So all you can see is white stuff glowing. It's very cool except the harnesses don't seem to go down that far. When I was waiting in line it's pitch black except for the black light which doesnt show in corners so I ran into a trash can. It hurt really bad! Well hope you enjoy it as much as i did except for the pain running into a trash can. Have fun going to Cedar Point!
