Driving along the highway next to the park you can see this monster of a coaster: Raging Bull. You watch the train full of screaming riders plunge down that incredibly steep drop into nothingness and then pop out into a turn. You think to yourself "I have to get on that thing!" Right when you enter the park you run to the right and enter Southwest Territory where the orange and purple coaster towers above you, the first drop in plain view. It seems more like 300 feet when you look above you. You run into the nice and shaded queue and wait with the other riders eagerly anticipating their ride. Running 3 trains, the line is always moving. As you enter the station I advise you to sit in the back, Ill tell you in a minute why. Sit down in the incredibly comfortable B&M seats and push down that lapbar into your lap. That is all thats saving you from flying off into the atmosphere. All is clear, and youre out. Over a smooth turn and up the 205 ft. hill. Take in the incredible view while you can, or shut your eyes if you dont like heights. Youre at the top! Raging Bull teases you with a small drop at first and then ROARS down the 200 ft. drop! In the back you get extreme ejector air and feel like youre going to fly off! You see the tunnel at the bottom getting closer, closer, youre in darkness for less then a second and youre out! Up into the turn and if youre on the right you will feel like you will fly off into the line of Viper below you. Down a drop and up a huge hill with a trim unfortunately. Killing any airtime you might have had, its still an exciting drop. After that is 2 more turns and up into the MCBR. You have time to catch your breath before you get pulled down into a bunnyhop where it takes your picture. Up and down another bunnyhop, and the rest are turns and helixes. Theres another trim around there somewhere which is unfortunate. Overall its an extremely fun ride with a short wait so there is no reason why you shouldnt ride it when youre at Six Flags Great America.
