I was very disappointed in this coaster. It is a classic yes, but if you are really inot classics, the first thing you notice is that it has modern trains. Not only modern trains, but plastic modern trains. They are very uncomfortable, the lap bar is built in a u-shape attached to the bottom of the back of the seat, making very little leg room, the seats are hard plasic. I believe they contribute to the very slow pace of the ride as well due to how light they are. I just dont understand why they didnt get new PTC trains, they would have been much better and would have kept the classic look of the ride.
As I had already said, the ride is very slow. It looked like it has some neat elements, and the tunnel is pretty cool (it is lined with metel sheets that really makes sounds reverberate), but the tunnel is still missing the dragons head, and the pair of double humped drops in the track offer nothing in terms of airtime. There is no airtime on this ride at all in fact, and the turns are so slow they arent even worth banking. I found myself wondering when this ride was going to end.
