You're preaching to an audience of speed junkies, Granny. What did you think the poll would look like? :p

What if you hit a bug or something? lol Or a bird, holy shit.
That ride is badass looking, though!
Kingda Ka is better. Start at 0:50. I believe it reaches 127/128 mph on launch.

And if you think that is scary, look at this.

There was a sign before you get on the ride that says this is normal and that there are safety mechanisms in place to handle it and re-launch you.
Top thrill dragster at Cedar Point is identical to this ride, aside from the hill at the end. I have to be honest, that ride almost made me poop before getting on it. I bought a picture when I got off. Me and my three band mates.... good times.
EDIT: And here it is:)

^ I was really hoping that wouldn't happen when we got on! LOL
I work at a theme park so I can ride for FREE!!!! But I love roller coasters....the last time I rode one my phone fell off the ride :( next day though I get a call and my phone still works!!!
I've been fortunate enough to have been to Cedar Point, Magic Mountain and Kings Dominion to ride the coasters. Plus, I've been on the Desperado in Primm Nevada, the High Roller, on top of the Stratosphere, (Which is no longer there) and the Ghost Rider in Knotts Berry Farm. Let's just say I love coasters!! :D
top thrill dragster is one of my favorites ever. To be honest, though, front seat in Millennium Force at night is much better. They get you to the top of the hill and turn out all the lights. Sitting up there it's pitch black and after all the lights it's hard to make out the bottom. So off you barrel at 90mph into nothing. SOOOO much fun!
