Top Thrill Dragster at winter

Postby Xtrophic » Tue Dec 16, 2003 12:43 pm

Yep, the evil new ride at Cedars Point, taken with a snowy landscape.
The ride that takes you 420ft up in 120mph.

The one ride Tarryk had reservations against :)

I rode on that a few months back. We were like the first people in the park that day, so when we went to the dragster there wasnt a line. Afterwards, tho, the line was about 3hrs.

Yep, if it wasn't for the long wait I would have taken a ride in it :) But standing in line for hours wasn't my idea of fun.

Yeah, it was awesome showing X the wonders of Cedar Point, but there's no way were going to ride the Dragster. The day we were there it was a 3 hour wait all day, and the ride kept breaking down and launching people BACKWARDS down the hill.

Yeah, so we kinda skipped that one. :)

Okay.... so I'm NOT getting on that ride... or eating anything before it... pimps are ment to stay on the ground in low riders... not machines that turn you up, down around, and upside down... that's what beds are for.

If you ever thought I stopped pimping... heh...

They make you sit there for like two minutes until, witohut warnng, they launch you, reaching about 100mph in less than .5 seconds. It KICKS ARSE.

Holy crap, do they make you sign a release before ya ride that thing? That was made by the designer who everyone tells "You're crazy man, they'll never let you do that"

Never been to Cedar Point - It was all cloudy and stuff when I was visiting out in Ohio a few years back. :(
