Cedar Point did a "Behind the Rides" segment for Top Thrill Dragster four years ago. It is a walk through of morning inspection and an explanation of the launch components.

It's a two part segment:

Here is a link to Dragster's construction photos, there are some great shots of the hydraulic motor being placed and the insides of the hydraulic room.
