I'm going to cedarpoint next summer (don't ask why i'm asking this so early), but, is there any specail order or any tips on how to get on rides quicker? Last time i went to cedarpoint was when wicked twister was new, and i got to go on Millennium force like 5 times in an hour! The park was dead. Wicked twister had a great rush to it (especailly the launch). I heard top thrill dragster is a great ride. What should i expect on it? The worst ride IMO was corkscrew. I actually liked mean streak the first tiem i went on it, but the second time was hell. Raptor is by far the best inverted i've been on...but then again i've never been on alpengeist. Gemini wasn't that great, but it's cool to interact with your friends on any racing coaster. Millennium force is the best coaster i've ever been on. The speed is the greatest on that ride. I got airtime on all 4 hills. Great ride, that is.magnum is really good in the 3rd seat. wow, does that have airtime. people thinkk it's bumpy, but i don't. And that's my trip. Oh yeah, disaster transport sucked.=-)

I like Sundays as well. Be sure to get a freeway stamps for TTD and MF if its crowded. Also, with freeway the stamps run out quickly,so make sure you get one. Ive found the entire back of the park (with Mean Streak and Cedar Creek Mineride) to be almost empty until about noon.

Yeah, run and get those freeway stamps, then go to the back of the park and do stuff there, depending on how much time you have before your ride time. I found the Magnum to have an unbareably long line when I was there, so you may want to do that right away. Also Raptor and Mantis were very long. But don't do Blue Streak, Disaster Transport, Mean Streak (ouch!), or Gemeni at the beginning or end of the day since those lines are never all that long.

Make sure you do Disaster Transport, it's a good ride, and very unique.

Disaster Transport is worth at least one ride, and when I went it was a walk-on. Don't multiple rides on it like I did lol. Mean Streak is a highly underrated attraction, and it you should ride just to make your own opinion.

I went in May of 2003 and stayed at the Breakers on Saturday and Sunday night. Best decision I ever made as guests of the park get in one hour before the public. Rushed to TTD on Sunday morning and got my ride before the long lines and breakdowns. Words can not describe this intense ride. Tried to ride again on Monday morning before driving home but TTD was shut down all morning. Raptor always tends to have a long line as it's the first coaster from the main gate. Lines for Magnum were minimal (neverr more than 20 minutes) all three days I was there, rode about 15 times. I don't like Disaster Transport, but loved Mean Streak. A wooden coaster with a real "mean streak".
Definitely get the Freeway stamp for Millenium Force
