What an experience. I finally got to ride this, on my fourth trip to Cedar Point since its opened. The initial launch is the most incredible rush I have ever experienced. Heading up the tower took much less than I expected, and before I knew it I was heading down, which was such a great feeling, with the wind blowing in your face and spiraling down 420 feet. My #1 ride, and after coming to Cedar Point several times to ride this, I think its safe to say it was worth it. A must ride for any coaster enthusiast.

This ride rocks! I rode it about two days ago and it was amazing. The launch is crazy adn the 2 second view from the top of the hill is also amazing but the ride was over way too fast, it needs to be longer than 15 seconds and needs to have a couple of more hills amd other thrills. If this thing is ranked 7 in the world with just one hill, think of its rating if it was an actual coaster.

An awesome experience. The reason for my rating, incredibly short ride with a huge wait time, and during my visits to the park it has been down more than 50% of the time.

This roller coaster is so amazing! Top Thrill is so tall and so fast and just an unbelievable experience you wont soon forget. From the launch to crossing the finish line, this ride keeps you pumped. Top Thrill Dragster is what roller coasters are all about!

Without a dout this is simply the most amazing thrill machine ever created. The way it builds in your mind minutes, days, and months before you ride. You try to simulate it in your mind and remember the amazing 18 seconds, but you cant. It is just one big blure of adrinaline. You memory tells you that the launch is not that bad after several rides, but truthfully that launch catches you by surprise every time. Seamingly grabing your entire body with a clutch of adrinaline and forcing you to scream at the top of your lungs. Every time I experience this monster the launch catches me by surprise.(even after 20+ rides). The lauch is great no matter were you sit but if you want to experience it at full force you must try the front seat. The view from the very WIDE OPEN front cars make you feel so isolated with hundreds of onlookers staring at your ever reaction as you sit waiting to launch. You will soon forget they or any thing on earth is existant exept you and the track. The fins drop, the train creeps back about 2 feet, YELLOW YELLOW YELLOW GREEN. You laucnch, and the single greatest 18 seconds of man made terror begins. The car just keeps accelerating and just when you think it is over you keep going faster and faster and then SNAP, the cable releases and you begin to tip sky-ward. You expect a long climb to the top but before you can realize you are vertical you begin to crest the hill. You try to look around, take in the veiw, and make out how many coasters you are taller than, but gravity does not let you as you are flung over the top at what seems like un-safe speeds. You are pressed vilontly against what might as well be a tooth pick for a lap-bar. After the scariest moment of air time in your life your are pressed back in your seat as the train spirals 270 degrees to the right. Just before the giant yellow support beam infront of you takes off your upper bodey the train levels out and you notice the amazing speed once again. You want the speed to go on forever but you slowly begin to slow down. When you finally come to a stop you dont care how many guest in the line are watching you, and you scream, yell, or curse in joy. You then exit the most amazing coaster ever created with one thing in mind. RIDING AGAIN!

To all you people concerned with 1 1/2 hour waits. Way back in 1976 the wait was usually 31/2 hours for the Corkscrew. TTD is without a doubt the most intense machine Ive ever been allowed to ride. Probably as close to a fighter launch of a carrier that most will ever experiance. Hell Im 40 and it made me feel like a little scared kid again. I LOVE THAT!

An amazing experience. The short length is the only thing keeping it back from a 10. Definately worth the wait for your first ride.

This ride can only be described as INTENSE. One might question should it be longer???? The station takes way too long.

OH MY GOD! This coaster is insane! The anticipation of the launch, especially when you are in the front row of the second train in the set, watching the first train launch infront of you. The ride itself is unbelieveable. The launch just feels like it is going faster and faster as it speeds toward the tower, then the vertical accent to the top, and then the drop, spiraling out of control. Even beter at night when the bright spotlights are shining on it.

Just like last years slogan for Cedar Point, this ride was Absolutely Amazing! The speed, the launch, the height, the drop, the sounds, the theme, the people, it all is amazing. I really felt like I was in a dragster about to start a race with everyone in the grandstands looking at the train waiting for it to take-off, and then all of suddent; WHAM! You launch, and you go for the ride of your life.
