Ladies and Gentlemen, The TOP THRILL DRAGSTER…

A Few Facts Reaching a stratospheric 420 feet tall and topping out at an unheard of speed of 120 mph, this new steel screamer helped Cedar Point reclaim the title of owning the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the universe. Riders begin their epic journey aboard this whopping 42-story screamer by securing themselves into ultra-cool trains that resemble top fuel dragsters. The train then moves into a "starting line" position, where it launches forward, reaching speeds of 120 mph in approximately four seconds. But hold on … this isn't your father's roller coaster. The train then zooms straight up the 420-foot- tall hill on track that rotates 90 degrees, crests the coaster's apex and then free-falls back to Earth, reaching a speed of 120 mph for the second time. As the train races more than 400 feet to the ground, the track twists an unbelievable 270 degrees - what a rush! Riders then return to the station to begin regaling their friends with stories of the greatest ride of their lives Max. speed: 120 M.P.H.!! (Fastest in the world) 0 to 120 M.P.H in 4 seconds Costs: $ 25 million Guaranteed NOT to be ridden by the Joe-kster! joe-ks.com
