It lives up to it's name.. Hint, don't look away from the track... It hurts. The drop, you don't feel. The launch is intense. I love this.

Awesome ride. The launch is INTENSE! It cant be described you just have to do it. The hill is fun, especially going down. I like it better than Kingda Ka because this has only the lap bars, and that makes it sooo much better. However, this ride is too short. It is intense, and for a minute afterwards you're shaking, but thats it. Fun, but WAY to short.

whats a rollback like i thought they were by accident at first until i saw a video on youtube called stealth thorpe. park and in the video it said there was a warning sign telling you about rollbacks are normal occurances. its terrifying i hate them its not natural
esppecially when passengers dont know anything about them i know folk like them becos you get more time on it but isnt the whole objective suppost to be quick and thrilling not slow and scary.

This ride is amazing the rollback is an adrenaline rush and the most exciting element is sittin in a seat strapped down then launching 120 mph while loads of screaming peaple in your ear

Clearly better than Kingda Ka. Just look at the restraints. Kingda Ka has those lame over the shoulder restraints while Dragster just has a lap bar. And besides, they just made Kingda Ka so they could set a record. Its only like 8 mph faster. DRAGSTER ROCKS.

Good for what it is. The forces are phenomenal. Still, Waiting for hours for a few seconds of ride is not my cup of tea. I'd call this a quickie.

well i think that it is the best launched coaster but not the best roller coaster because of how short it is

As far as 13-second intervals go, this coaster tops the list. The launch didn't feel as strong as Hypersonic's, but the fact that it just kept pulling made me almost like it better. Then, I wasn't expecting the strong positive Gs going up the top hat. The 270 degree spiraling freefall was great too. It could easily be my #1 if it were a bit longer.

TTD is so much better than Kingda Ka with its restraints. I love this ride and the rush is phenomonal. The wait is so worth it.

I rode TTD for the first time last month and I like it even better than Kingda Ka. No sholder harness is the way to go. A 9 for sure!

I really like this ride, the launch is really forceful, and while the launch is REALLY REALLY good, there's nothing else lol so i have to give it a 9.

m3 is right about the restraints. It's a joke to say that we would ever be real comfortable when we are going at these speeds, but the over the shoulders on Kingda Ka hurt yet the waste bars on Dragster add to the thrill (especially on the way back down). If the line had not been 3 hours long, I would have given this one a 2 point better rating. I went again at night just before they closed. This had a 25 minute wait. WOW, in the dark, what a rush !

Good coaster, the problem is that there is only 30 seconds to the ride.

Like this ride, the only thing that I don't like is that the ride is over in 30 seconds.

I'm sorry, but this, I think, is much better than Kingda Ka. Even though Kingda Ka is higher and faster, this has restraints that only go over your waste so you feel more free. Kingda Ka has full over shoulder restraints. I haven't ridden it but it's just my opinion. I hope to ride it some day!

Aha,Top Thrill Dragster, One day I will ride it. I do not wish to compare it to Kingda Ka because both structures have their advantages and disadvantages. 10/10 on it's structural design.steel traditonal sit-down with a hydraulic launch. Very nice Strata Coaster :)It has deserved to set those several new records :)!

unlikely as it would quite sharply increase the negative gs over the hat!! airtime may be fun for us, but it would be uncomfortable for a lot of people. too much neg g can cause red outs n passing out n the such, not gd pr for a park!!!!one way they could make the launch better would making it faster accelerating. if dodonpa can get to 107 in1.8 s, then im sure this could get to 120 in maybe 2.5??

If they tweeked the booster like with stealth, then apart from reducing rollbacks and increasing air time, it could try to over take kingda ka in speed,so it's fastest, but ka is highest, doubt that will happen though...

This ride was awesome! The lapbars were amazing and the twist down was so exhilirating. A must ride for anyone who goes to Cedar Point(I even had to wait 1&1/2 hours in the heat and still loved it. Thats how good it was)

This people, is what Ohio lives for!
I actually went on it for the first time last year, at the end of the ride, one of the tires were nearly on fire! Althought the wheels are made of nylon, it seemed to melt! It is not as good as Kingda Ka anymore, i think Kingda ka has much better wheels!

I rated this ride a 6, the only thing this ride had going for it was height and speed, but so much more could have been done. The launch scared me and the ride was still fun, definitely a must ride if you can.

This ride was quite a bit of fun, but it was too short and unreliable. The launch was just amazing though, and it gets points for the lapbars!

I ride this every time I go to CP. I managed to get in the park an hour before public (due to staying at a resort hotel) and had a 10 minute line for it. Awesome!

I really am looking forward to riding this ride. Yeah it does break down a lot but i am looking froward for a roll back because then you get launched again. They should put something after you go back down to earth but its still good.

I don't get excited that easily, but I was really looking forward to this. The launch was very smooth and sure, and the climb to the top and the freefall were amazing. Top Thrill Dragster certainly isn't an everyday ride, because every day it will break down. Be it mechanical problems or bad weather, it's very suceptible to the smallest thing. It's also a shame that Cedar Point didn't do more after the fall to earth from 420ft. They didn't have to of course, the ride has done its job by then, but that's a lot of potential gone up in smoke.
