Love the fun theming on this ride, from the cheesy mouse cars, sound effects along the way, to the cat trying to grab at the mouse at the beginning before the mouse runs away from it. The spinning element adds another fun dimension. Far from the best coaster in the world, or the park, but for a family coaster it hits the mark. Pure silliness.

My new favorite coaster. This is such a great coaster, and absolutely worth the long wait times. I went in to it completely blind with no expectations and was so pleasently surprised. Its perfectly forceful, has a great layout, starts off extremely strong and doesnt let up until the end. A clise contender for my current #1.

What a speed demon. P305 does not disappoint. Between the restraints, the layout, and the incredible whippy transitions, p305 is an absolute beast of a coaster. The speed does not let up. I do not experience the grey/blackouts that other riders do, though I have on occasion seen stars. If I did, though, I doubt I would be riding it again. Last time I rode it front row and it did not disappoint. While TT edges it out as my favorite ride at KD, I still love this little (big) monster if a ride. My favorite part is the snap turns that always take me by surprise. I know they are there, but this thing doesn't give you the time to think about what's coming next. I also appreciate the security of thenover-the-shoulder restraints that also add to the theming as a Nascar ride (even if it is being rethemed--please dont take them away!) Three cheers to KD for having this thing in it's 1-2 park punch.

This coaster gets better with every ride. The barrel roll drop is such a unique experience and really sets the pace for the rest of the layout. It also has an incredible second half that really keeps up the pace of the first...as most have stated the twisted 2nd half camelbacks are just plain fun with the combination of airtime and torsion. I never ride this coaster just once, we always get back in line and ride it again! Rode it front row for the first time and it was pure joy and smooth like butter. An absolute must ride when you get the chance to go to KD. Come for p305, stay for TT.
Update to say I rode it back row and my god does this thing want to snap your thighs like they're made out of straw. It was so forceful the person in front of me passed out. I love this ride so much.

What a timepiece. I love the 80's theming of this ride, and appreciate it for its historical elements. I just didn't like it quite as much as I think I should have. There isnt anything that really stood out to me as a "wow" moment.

I was pleasantly surprised by Gatekeeper. The only other wing coaster I've been on is Rapterra at KD and while Rapterra's rolling launch is punchy and enjoyable, I much prefer GK. Its a nice length, super smooth (unlike Rapterra!) and really makes you feel like you are flying through the air.

There simply isnt anything I could say isnt good about this ride. The speed, the airtime, the length...you ride it and it just keeps going. RMC just knows what it is doing. Loved all the signature RMC barrel roll drops on this ride. I cannot wait to ride it again, and I only hope I can get a back row ride in.

Ill ride this coaster for two reasons: the theming, and the launch. KD has really stepped up their game on theming in the park, which I appreciate. Its probably necessary as their closest rival is BGW, but Im not complaining. The homage to volcano is fitting. But the line needs more SHADE.
That rolling launch is such a blast, too. After.that you feel like you're flying through the air. Do I lobe it as much as TT or i305? Not by a long shot, but I enjoyed it more than Dominator on my last visit so I'll give it that.
Also, the key to a less bumpy ride is riding on the inner instead of the outer seat.

What an incredible ride. The first drop really sets the pace for the ride. This thing keeps up, even coming back to life after the break run with some great airtime moments. And it's smooth as butter throughout. It's absolutely worth going to Carowinds even if you only ride Fury 325.

Mediocre at best. Without the special effects this ride has very little special about it, but Ive never experienced it with special effects. The launch is mid, and it does have the helix sequence but I do not enjoy helices as an element. I'm vocal on coasters, but with this one I just sit quietly until the ride is over.

As soon as this ride ended I loudly blurted out, "this is the best roller coaster I've ever been on!" And I meant it so much I felt it for days afterwards. This thing is a masterpiece that persists with a relentless intensity throughout the entire ride. It also has the best theming out of the list of the best coasters in the world. I haven't ridden SteVe or Iron Gwazi yet, so thus far this thing takes the cake for me.

This coaster is the perfect ride, and the best ride WDW Orlando has ever contrived. Note that I did not call it the perfect coaster--many others are contenders for that title. But for a family ride it 100% fits the bill. The theming is immaculate in queue, and carries over on ride. The cinematic elements while riding truly add to the overall experience. The music selection is excellent--we got "I Ran" and the guitar solo hit at just the right spot, it was as if the ride was built around the song. And that helix around the moon is *chef's kiss* perfection, by far my favorite portion of the ride, woth the backwards launch being a very close second. Disney really stepped it up with this one and saved a dying park (Epcot). This is the ride that Space Mountain always wanted to be. The reridability on this thing is also excellent, seeing that you can get a different song each time, but you will not be sad if you get the same one. My husband who isn't a coaster fan loved this one, it was his favorite ride after a 3-day amusement park trip. I still find myself thinking about this ride from time to time and I can't wait to go to Epcot just for a chance to reride it. Overall, a great ride using the best Marvel IP (Guardians), with fun elements (rotating cars), and an excellent soundtrack.

BTMR is such a fun family coaster--my whole family enjoyed it. The line theming and continued theming on the ride make it extra fun. It truly is a runaway train. We ride it twice, once during the day, and again at night, and both situations afford it different fun elements. It also has a great layout, winding and diving around itself. It has two lift hills that give it two fun drops. The end is a bit anticlimactic, but for a Disney coaster it scratches this thrill seeker's itch.

Tron falls far short of expectations. The launch, unique restraints, and indoor/outdoor elements make this a fun ride, but overall it felt lackluster. I doubt the re-ridability of this coaster. The best part, in my opinion, is the queue and theming. Walking over the bridge where the launch sequence takes place was my favorite part, and I enjoyed the lighting and theming elements throughout. But with how hyped up I was from the theming in line, I felt like the ride disappointed. It also goes without saying that it is far, far too short.

I remember as a kid desperately wanting to ride Space Mountain. I was finally big enough at 10 years old, and begged my parents all day to let me go ride it. When we finally got there the park was closing and they weren't letting anyone else in line. Fast forward to my first trip to WDW as an adult and when we arrived to the Magic Kingdom we made a beeline for Space Mountain. Ah, the anticipation. I would finally ride the ride. We got in line, were ushered to the left (Alpha track) and made it on.
What an utter disappointment this ride was.
Without any nostalgia attached to riding Space Mountain, there was absolutely nothing to enjoy. It is slow, janky, rickety, an absolute headbanger...my local park has a better wooden kiddie coaster than Space Mountain. I will never understand, outside the nostalgic value of re-riding one's first "real" roller coaster, why people enjoy this ride so much. But I could say the same for most of the options at The Magic Kingdom...Space Mountain was just the biggest let down at the park.

I think this may be then worst coaster ever created. All the fun elements are gimmicks (like the underwater tunnel) but it's an absolute headbanger. I've learned to learn forward, not back, to avoid getting a migraine. It's still a roller coaster, I'll ride it if others I'm with want to, but I don't seek it out. This thing simply runs on nostalgia and I'm not here for it.

This was my first coaster, and the coaster that launched my love of thrill rides. I remember my legs dangling in anticipation of that first launch. I rode it before they added the second launch out of the volcano and wish I could have come back to ride this thing again before it went defunct. I'm glad KD is making good on it's plot of land and hope that whatever they are putting there does right by the Volcano's legacy.

Honestly, for a Kiddie coaster, this is not a bad attempt. I know there are many at these parks, but thry are actually fun. My heavy adult ass got airtime riding with my kid. It's like a mini racer 75. A good intro to the big-kid coasters for little thrill seekers.

Extremely uncomfortable when you are the person sitting in the front as the restraints digs into your abdomen. The ride is smooth but it is extremely tame. The best part is being able to see the progress they are making on the new coaster being built on the old Volcano plot.

Look, this is a classic KD ride. It's worth riding it once, even if you never ride it again. It's been around as long as I remember, and I can't imagine they are getting rid of it anytime soon. They recently retracked a significant portion of the ride and decreased the rattle significantly. The grizzly roar as you leave the station fills me with nostalgia everyone I ride it.

A fun, classic coaster. Very reridable, I never pass it up. I'm surprised at what a solid ride this is for a relocated coaster. If you're at KD, make sure you cross it off your list. Will it blow you away? No. But it's a hell of a lot better than the anaconda.
