To be honest, I went in expecting one of the worst coasters ever. Came out having the ride in my top 50. I honestly think the roughness makes it better. The zero g roll has this weird shuffle to it giving some crazy laterals. The lap bars were pretty comfortable imo, and I didn’t get too stapled. Overall this ride is a great compliment to cyclone for an amazing 1-2 punch.

This looks kind of fun, there are just a couple odd looking things about it. Like how you sit, like, a mile above the track. It almost looks like that messes up the heartline sometimes, and adds some extra whip to the bunny hills. And you're right that the profiling of that turnaround is strange. But the lights are stunning and the layout looks like a good time.

This was the first coaster I went to in order to get over my fear of roller coasters (not exactly smart going headfirst into one of the most intense coasters) I can just say the ride was amazing even though my legs wouldn’t stop shaking once the ride was over. After that I went to the other roller coasters Cyclone, Phoenix, Soaring Eagle and I can say I had the time of my life. Oh yeah for those with sensitive stomachs like me take a pill so that your stomach can prepare itself and settle down.

So when a coaster has a trim brake on the first drop, is that something that is originally designed into the ride? Seems to me like it's something that they would add after the ride has first opened to the public and they need to slow it down. That's what happened with Intimidator 305.

This ride is really on people's opinion on it. Some absolutely hate it for the roughness and weird brick restraints while others love it for its unique layout full of airtime and inversions. I personally don't mind roughness that much so I could definitely see myself enjoying this for the great unique inversion filled first half and airtime filled second half. Iv heard some about Rolling Thunder at park at OWA so I'd assume this is like that.

I've never liked this ride, it feels like a middle-finger to the legacy of Coney Island to me, instead of going with an RMC topper-track woodie, which would have been a VERY fitting successor to the original, they had to shill for a product of their own which is a knockoff EuroFighter. That is what I dislike about the ride, I may not despise it like I do Verbolten, Hagrid's, Twisted Cyclone, Orion or Iron Gwazi (all rides that I consider irredeemable trash for various reasons), but if I could remove it from the park I'd consider it. All of this negetvitity could have been easily avoided if they didn't try to milk nostalgia with it.
