It's been 5 years since I released my RMC rankings, and since then I've added a bunch more and of course things change. These are my revised RMC rankings as of 2023, limiting this to the USA, but throwing in one foreign RMC that I rode this summer.

Nice video, Chris! I love how unique this list is. Stunt Pilot ranks higher for me, but all the raptors do, so I think you nailed that prediction given your tastes.

I think it depends on your taste. Iron Gwazi is definitely shorter but I think it packs a bigger punch in a shorter amount of time, has better elements, is more intense, and the pacing is insane! But Steel Vengeance definitely is a lot longer and it offers some of the best air time in the world! *Personally* (and I understand why someone would disagree), I prefer Iron Gwazi because of the pacing and its elements.

Jersey Devil is my 3rd favorite RMC. I used to gag on it, but I got a night ride during fright fest (about 8pm) and it absolutely shot up my rankings. The shoulder straps were super warmed up so you couldn't feel them, and the track was too and it was buttery. It was originally the second worst before foc (because of the rattle on foc), but after that ride, it's the best rmc at any of my home parks over the years (even better than twisted colossus)!

Let's get ground up clones of Wicked Cyclone and Arieforce One. Being smaller rides these pack the bang for the buck compared to larger ground ups like Zadra. They could also dial-in a few elements with the real world experience of these to get everything nearly perfect.

I've done 8 RMCs so far, all great to varying degrees. 8. WW Golden Lasso Coaster - runs considerably rougher than Railblazer, and this was consistent between multiple visits 7. WW Flight of Courage - really fun, but temperamental day to day. Some days it's the best ride in the park, others it gets beaten out by Full Throttle and Apocalypse. 6. The Joker - great inversions, lacks the power of some of the other I-Box coasters. 5. Railblazer - insane pacing. I got night rides on this and GLC within a week of each other and the difference was staggering. 4. Twisted Colossus - rarely duels these days, and therefore loses some of its appeal to me. still a powerhouse, great elements. 3. Storm Chaser - the most powerful RMC I've ridden so far. Ran stupid fast in 2022, slightly more reasonable in 2023. 2. Iron Rattler - Love the setting, and my favorite first drop anywhere. The section on top of the quarry wall wasn't a huge drop in speed on my rides. Also, the Gerstlauer trains are great. 1. Iron Gwazi - it's a pretty perfect coaster.

You gotta bet back to Hershey for Wildcat’s! Definitely should be closer to your top 5, it’s been broken in, it hauls way too fast in the end like a hyper hybrid. Tossing you every which way, all the way into the final brakes. The ending imo is so whippy it’s almost too much to enjoy. I think you need rerides to see how crazy the end is. Also, best pre-lift by far 🔥

Wicked Cyclone is my favorite RMC (and my favorite coaster overall), but that's because it's my *only* RMC. It's also the closest thing I have to a home RMC. It's so strange to see it ranked so high here--above Iron Gwazi, which many enthusiasts regard as the world's greatest coaster. But... but... Wicked Cyclone is, indeed, insane. Since most enthusiasts seem to regard it as a mid-tier RMC at best, I always assumed there was a wealth of vastly better ones out there waiting for me to ride them, but who knows? (Canobie Coaster even ranks Boulder Dash above it as the best ride in New England. While I can see where Canobie Coaster is coming from, he is also wrong.)

I am on a quest to get more RMCs off my list in 2024. As of now, I'm at 6 with a recent trip to BGT to check Iron Gwazi off my list. A bit embarrassed to say that I grew up and only recently moved out of Kentucky and NEVER rode Storm Chaser (that will change). I totally agree about letting these RMCs warm up and how much of a difference it makes. My first ride on IG was almost disappointing (granted I was super hyped to ride it). Thankfully, I was able to get several more rides and sure enough, by the time I was getting my first night ride, that thing was ripping! Steel Vengeance is just a masterpiece. I have friends in the ATL area so I'm thinking I can justify a trip to get AF1

Last summer I made it to Kings Dominion. Before that, I don't even think RMC was even a company (hadn't built any rollercoasters yet if they were) when I last went to an amusment park road a rollercoaster. I went with my family (mom, sister, nephews, etc..) to KD and I was the only one "brave" enough to ride TT. I just remember walking out the exit where my mom was waiting on a bench with the biggest smile on my face. Told her I had to ride it again (this time in the back row instead of the middle). One of the "funnest" coasters I've ever been on. Probably liked it even more than i305. I'm pretty sure cedar point is in the plans for this summer with the wife. Can't wait for steel vengeance. Little said bush gardens VA doesn't have an rmc as I think that's in the plans with my family again. The family is in Northern VA/DC area if yall couldn't tell.

Great video man. Always love this subject because it is a great group of coasters to rank. Would like to compare mine to yours. I have ridden 16 in the US plus Medusa. The four I haven't ridden are ArieForce, Twisted Collosus, Wonder Woman Flight of Courage, and Stunt Pilot. Here is my comparison. STRONG AGREE: WWGL- it's my least favorite RMC. Both have it near the bottom. I also rank Storm Chaser, WCR, and Iron Rattler all right next to each other. They're 6, 7, and 9 of my 16 US ones for me. WCR is a great coaster but not top tier RMC imo. Twisted Cyclone, Goliath, and NTG we seem to agree. Great for what they are but limited by length, age, and lackluster second half in the latter. 11, 13, and 15 of my 16 US. STRONG DISAGREE: Wicked Cyclone is my biggest disagreement because I found the pacing the worst on any RMC. 12/16 for me. Big note I haven't ridden it since 2019 so I hope you're right about it being faster now. Jersey Devil and Railblazer I think are too low. The former gets hated on a lot by the entire community. It is just very particular. Ride it in the back late in the day, it's an elite RMC airtime experience. As for Railblazer I think it's a lot more powerful than its twin. I rank these at 10 and 8 of my 16 US. Twisted Timbers I just rank higher than most because of all the air time. 3/16 for me. Outlaw Run aged very well. Elite first drop and setting. Top 5 RMC for me. SLIGHTLY DISAGREE: These last ones I think we're on the same page just different order. Iron Gwazi is by far my favorite RMC. Closest thing to a perfect coaster I have ridden. It is Steel Vengeance perfected imo. Lightning Rod is my #2 RMC. Steel Vengeance I rank a little lower than most at my #4 RMC. I just don't think it's as powerful as the other two. Overall great list. I enjoyed your analysis.

As for someone who has Silverwood as their homepark and ridden stunt pilot over 100 times and been on the other raptors, it’s definitely not as whippy with the longer trains, the dive loop feels more like a traditional one rather than the original raptors with how it’s profiled, and the airtime isn’t as powerful, but the two drops are really good in the back row.

Only Ridden Stunt Pilot because i live in North Idaho. According to other enthusiasts I've talked too Stunt Pilot is their favorite Raptor and I enjoy how much Airtime i actually get on the ride. Seems to whip around the course better the other's.

Maybe it's not the length of the train that allows for the whippiness, but the way the course is built. In which case a longer train might actually make things better. But Chris won't be able to reach a verdict about that until he returns to the Spokane valley / northern Idaho.

@MarsJenkar It's quite possible. Like I said I've only ridden the one but I enjoy it a lot. And the 2 train ops make it nice.

Great Adventure really got screwed with Jersey Devil, especially seeing as they intentionally put a much faster running version of it at Magic Mountain. Maybe with CF now partially in control they'll actually take better care of the park that makes the chain the most money for once

I will still never understand your undying love for Wicked Cyclone lol. I have it 11 of my 14 RMCs. But I know you value airtime over pacing, and I value pacing above everything. Zadra is my favorite. I hope you get to experience it one day.

I've ridden all 20 in the US and Untamed at Walibi Holland. Here is how I rank the 20 US RMC's: 1. Steel Vengeance 2. Iron Gwazi 3. Lightning Rod 4. Arie Force One I would place Untamed here 5. Twisted Timbers 6. Wildcat's Revenge 7. Outlaw Run 8. Iron Rattler 9. Storm Chaser 10. Twisted Colossus 11. RailBlazer 12. Wonder Woman (SFFT) 13. Stunt Pilot- Doesn't run quite as well as the other 2 14. Goliath 15. Twisted Cyclone 16. Wicked Cyclone- Our biggest disagreement- Last lap just slows down too much. 17. Wonder Woman (SFMM) 18. Joker 19. Jersey Devil 20. New Texas Giant

What are your new thoughts on CGA after the merging of SF and CF? (since especislly now, sfdk will most likely replace cga and cga will most likely vanish after its 10y grace) Also, what do you think is going to happen to SFDK assuming that its "competition" is gone?

@Airtime Thrills. I know Outlaw Run isn’t your favorite RMC. And I might have a little bias since it’s my #1 (I haven’t ridden much). It’s running amazing this year. The only slightly rough patch was the valley after the first drop. And the ride ops never stapled me on my 2 rides I got on my last visit.

I’ve only been on 5 RMCs, and I would rank them as so 5. Wonder Woman: Flight of Courage 4. New Texas Giant 3. Twisted Colossus 2. Storm Chaser 1. Steel Vengeance Only difference between mine and where they ended up on your list is swapping Storm Chaser and Twisted Colossus, but I also only got one ride on TwiCo, and 6 on Storm Chaser so I will definitely need more rides on TwiCo in the future to be sure of those placements

In my I’ve been on 7 RMC coasters. In my humble opinion Wildcats revenge feels a bit like iron Gwazi but smaller. My personal faves without ranking them. Steele vengeance. Iron Gwazi. Twisted colossus. Wonder Woman lasso. Wildcats revenge.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that doesn’t like the Gerstlauer trains on the TX RMC hybrids. I always get stapled no matter how much room I give myself. Doesn’t help that they staple the heck out of you in the station if you don’t prepare for it.

I’ve only been on four RMCs, and I actually would rank them in the same order that Chris does: 4. Jersey Devil 3. Wildcat’s Revenge 2. Storm Chaser 1. Steel Vengeance Out of the ones I haven’t been on, AF1 is the RMC I want to ride the most.

I love your rankings. The only thing I would change is the placement of Wildcats revenge and Airie force one. I think they are both great but I personally prefer wildcats more than arie… but I’m not really able to put my finger on why. Maybe it’s the overall park experience Hershey park vs fun spot which really isn’t any competition.

I feel like you might have gotten a slower ride on wild cats revange. Hershey is my home park and sometimes it was definitely slower then others. But when it was hauling it was absolutely insane. Night rides on it during the summer are something else. The pacing on it is amazing and the ending is just so well done in my opinion. Definitely should try wild cats revenge again it’s really great.
