YOUR Top Ten Coasters

[Jasper]

I did some searching and surprisingly a topic like this did not come up. What are your top ten coasters? Wooden and steel.

1.) Millennium Force (Which until last week was at number 2-3)

2.) The Beast

3.) Magnum XL-200

4.) The Voyage

5.) Maverick

6.) Top Thrill Dragster

7.) Thunderhead

8.) Apollo's Chariot

9.) Diamondback

10.) Somewhat of a tie between Ride of Steel at Darien Lake and Raptor

[jdawg1998]

I actually hate ranking my top 10. This will probably differ from the ones on my about me page because as I think about the ones I've been on, I rank them.

1. Millennium Force

2. Maverick

3. The Voyage

4. Magnum XL-200

5. Diamondback

6. Top Thrill Dragster

7. The Incredible Hulk

8. Flight of Fear

9. Expedition Everest

10. The Raven

[McSalsa]

Here's my Top 10 List. Remember, I have only been to Kings Island, Indiana Beach (back in 1999),and Holiday World so far, so I don't have tons and tons to choose from...

#1-The Beast @ Kings Island

#2-The Voyage @ Holiday World

#3-Diamondback @ Kings Island

#4-The Legend @ Holiday World

#5-The Raven @ Holiday World

#6-Flight of Fear @ Kings Island

#7-Vortex @ Kings Island

#8-The Racer @ Kings Island (Red Racer>Blue Racer BTW)

#9-Flight Deck @ Kings Island

#10-Hoosier Hurricane @ Indiana Beach

Honorable Mentions (Ride's I've really liked but they missed the list): Backlot Stunt Coaster, Firehawk, Adventure Express, and Invertigo.

Very likely to start changing as I visit more parks, but as of right now, that's my list. If I could count Water Coasters, Wildebeest @ Holiday World would take the #3 spot, and knock off the Hoosier Hurricane.

I'm sorry but I just really hate ranking wood and steel TOGETHER. I just can't find a way to really compare them. To me both wood and steel offer a completely different ride experience. So I'm just going to rank mine seperately. I just can't seem to break the 'material barrier', if you will...

1. Maverick

2. Nitro

3. Millennium Force

4. Top Thrill Dragster

5. Diamondback

6. Fahrenheit

7. California Screamin'
