Parks I've been to:
Six Flags in Arlington, TX
Six Flags in Gurnee, IL
Kings Island in Kings Mill, OH
and #1 King-of-Kings:
Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH
The last time I was there the Magnum and The Raptor were the big rides, good times. :)
Isn't the Millenium Force supposed to be twice as tall as the Magnum or something? |

Millennium Force
Wicked Twister
Magnum XL 200
Mantis
Raptor
I have 4 seconds of the 9 second top-thrill dragster ride. the battery died on me on the way down the coaster :whip: i'll see if i could find it. |

Good vids! Somtimes an on-ride movie can give a good impression of what it would be like. |

Anybody tried Mission Space????
That's the most realistic Space simulator ever made.
They tested the ride with real astronauts, they said is the closest machine to the real thing.

Mission: SPACE at Epcot, Walt Disney World, Florida
Disney Imagineers have aspired to the sublime; Mission: SPACE is a groundbreaking, awe-inspiring attraction that delivers sensations unlike any you have ever felt (unless you're an astronaut) and replicates space travel with an astonishing degree of reality. It figuratively--and literally-- takes your breath away.
Mission:SPACE at a glance
* About Guide Rating (0=Yich!, 10=Wow!): 10
* Thrill Scale (0=Wimpy!, 10=Yikes!): 7.5
The sustained G-forces can be unnerving; the simulated liftoff and flight is very realistic; the capsule is quite confining.
* Attraction Type: Motion simulator using centrifuge technology
* Height Requirements: 44 inches
* Tips: Use Fastpass for this popular attraction.
Also consider using the single-rider line for faster boarding.
If you are prone to motion sickness, consider taking Dramamine.
