Coaster reviews

Lap Bar Launch Layout

This is absolutely my kind of coaster. Snappy launch, airtime, hangtime, great inversions, not too intense but intense none the less. I adore this ride. There is a bit of a dead spot in the transition from the mid course to the finale, but than that dive loop into the tunnel whips you out of your seat, getting you ready for the final inversion to do it again. First row, outer right is the seat to be for maximum whip. The cream colored train is a bit slower and has a slight rattle, the red train rides pretty smooth. Did not have a chance to ride the blue train. Had a nightride during the Halloween event which ups the level of fun even more.

Rattle Discomfort

ok lightning racer thunder is incredible. but lightning not so much I had one ride where I got stabbed by my seat belt. and it was the worst ride of my life. (Credit no. 46)

Location Intensity Headbanging Inversions Discomfort

I actually kind of like this coaster sure it is rough but only really on the corkscrews. The drop gives a nice pop of airtime in the back and the loop is really forceful, and it is an awesome photo op (credit no. 88)

First Drop Inversions Intensity

this is an incredible rollercoaster. The first drop is outstanding and gives awesome hangtime and the inversions after that are just fun in their own way. The Immelmann is super disorienting, the corkscrew gives awesome g's the 1st zero g roll gives floater airtime and a near miss element the reverse sidewinder gives great laterals, and the 2nd zero g gives hangtime. The coaster has 6 inversions in total (credit no. 89)

Airtimes Capacity Launch Theming

I love this roller coaster for its speed and theming. The reason I put the theming as a con is because of the fire, it feels warm and on a hot day it is torture. But the launch and airtime pops make up for it. The ladder is probably what makes it number 8 on my list(credit no. 102)

Fun Smoothness

This coaster holds a special place in my heart because it was the first roller coaster I ever rode when I was just 3 1/2. I went to Sesame Place just a few weeks before my 4th birthday and I don't remember a whole lot, but I remember this ride being a lot of fun.

Launch Fun Intensity Too short

Heart racing fun!! But another Great America ride that is way too short to justify the wait time. Even if you doubled the duration with another thrilling drop and inversion it’d be the shortest in the park. It’s so fun and leaves you wanting much more!!

Nice surprise! Fun Smoothness Intensity

So good! Not intense but a super unique and fun ride! Could be a touch faster but wouldn’t want to compromise the smooth ride.

Theming Disappointing! Dead spots

Excellent dark ride, wimpy coaster should just about sum this up. I don't like the 3d glasses. But it's worth it with that awesome queue and dark ride sections.

Pace Fun Smoothness Too short

Another Great America ride that’s just too short! It’s probably the smoothest ride in the park and just so fun. It could use another huge drop and about double the length but otherwise it’s perfect!
