Top Thrill Dragster is hands down the most amazing rollercoaster on the planet. Just watching the thing makes me happy. First of all I would like to tell you that I was very mad before I even got to ride this ride. I had waited a total of 6 hours, on 3 separate occasions, before I even got to ride this thing. But DAMN WAS IT WORTH IT! This ride is the only coaster that compares with Millennium Force. I couldnt decide which one was overall better until I rode them each one time after another. The ONLY bad thing I could come up with was length... That is the only reason it is number 2 on my list. Even though it is only 17 seconds long, it is worth any amount of time to wait for. Okay now to my review of the ride itself. The theme is awesome!! I love it. It almost dominates the park itself. There are soo many people in line, sitting in the grandstands, just standing around watching, or just passing through the section where Dragster is. Another really cool thing I really enjoy about the ride is the countdown lights on the tower. You can see when its going to launch a train up from all over the front of the park. If the trains still had all the themeing on them it would really make the ride even better. When you pull out of that station and your sitting there waiting... and waiting to launch your adrenaline is pumping like crazy. Everyone is stareing at you down on the midway and from the grandstands and you cant do anything but wait for those lights to signal. I cant even describe the feeling you get when that green lights signals... I really wish I could though. You shoot off like a rocket! Its crazy really. By the time you are at the end of the launch you are going 120 MPH.. and its been 3.8 seconds. Going up that 420 foot hill is amazing! You seem like your never gonna make to the top of the monsterous tower. Surley enough, you do. This is another cool thing about this ride, the top. The top of this ride is where you get the view of your life. Looking down on Millennium Force is something Ill never forget. The drop down the tower is simply amazing! The twist is soo smooth and fast. After the twist you fly down the remaining hill finally hitting the 120 MPH mark again. After flying through the "finish line" all you can do is take a deep breath. You really cant describe the feeling you get while on this ride, but I can tell you it is something you have NEVER felt before! It is an experience you only dream about. From the launch to the 400 ft vertical drop, this ride is truely amazing. It is only number 2 becuase of the length. Go ride this thing as soon as you can!
