    It's one of the best rides, specially if you go on the front sit. But make sure to keep you mouth shut if you go at night because of the bugs 😁

    Although this ride no longer has the in-ride video recording option, this one is a classic, the standard by which all inverted coasters are judged...

    Excellent coaster. It gets right down to business right after the first drop and puts some real G force on you at the end. Nonstop fun till you get back to the station

    Millennium Force is the best ride here, followed by Top Thrill Dragster, Maverick, and Gate Keeper. raptor was pretty good too.

    Probably has the highest g forces of all the coasters in the park. If you get light headed easily, this may not be the ride for you!

    Fast paced inverted coaster without a lot of the back and forth head banging.

    Like being flipped upside down? Raptor has the most inversions of any other coaster in the park!

    Front seat is a totally unique experience. This is more true on Raptor than any other ride.

    Don't go on this ride unless the line is less than an hour. Not worth anymore time than that
