The other thing I'd say about Cedar point is that they have probably 7-8 different rides that, if you took them and put them in a different park...that ride would be the feature attraction at that park, but at Cedar Point, they can almost be walkons. Agreed Balta. Been there once and been wanting to go back. A word of advice for those who go on the Dragster, keep your head straight because if you put it down, you will not be able to lift it back up until it's over. And your neck will be in pain for the whole day. You may say, "no duh", but with that particular ride, sometimes you do not make it all the way over because the speeds vary. It must go 120mph at least to make it over. Sometimes it'll only hit 119mph and you'll get to the tip top then fall backwards. They give you three opportunities to make it across. When you're going backwards though, you're still going ridiculously fast and that's when your head starts going down. When I got on it, which was the first ride of the day, it went 124mph.
