I was exactly like you guys. It looks awesome but it isn't that good i have to say. Storm Runner is so much better. The best part of Fahrenheit though is the end bank before the brakes. It catches you by surprise.

Biggest disappointment from both Hershey and Intamin. Probably not worth the 1 hour wait.

Yeah, it looks SOOO much better than it is.

But still, I really liked the uniqueness of it. The three air pops in the back are massive and it does some cool funky stuff...I just wish the corks were faster.

I found it to be a decent ride. The first drop and norwegian loop are pretty awesome, but the rest leaves a lot to be desired. The overbank and bunny hop at the end were quite forceful.

Loved it! Why isn't it a great ride? Perfectly smooth, awesome first drop, cool lift lol, nice pops of air, great floater corkscrews and some nice turns.

I think we should have a height limit for this site.

I'd be one of your guys to answer these questions. I've been to Hersheypark at least 12 times in my entire life.

The best seats on Fahrenheit are definately the front and the back. The front gives you that great view and the wind in your face, and the back row gives you a huge pop of air going off the lift

On almost every other coaster I prefer the back, but the front is leaps and bounds better on this one. I just remember it being so much smoother, feeling a lot quicker and just more fun. Obviously try both, though.

i said plan =p doesnt gaurentee anything. And who knows about my cousin because hes iffy where he sits on rides at GADV, so if i can convince him "oh i heard this is the best seat etc" then we probably wont have a problem. but we can end this lol

Back > Front on Fahrenheit by far...much stronger air on the drop and you even get some exiting the Pretzel Loop in the back.

I would spend more time on Storm Runner, though.
