Raging Bull is awesome! *pre drop* People just complain about the trim that doesn't do anything.

I think Diamondbacks was over $3000.

EDIT: And I agree with you Jonny.

Did it have LIMs on MCBR?

I wish alot of B&M coasters used lsms for brakes. Those clamp style brakes always make my chest hurt.

^ I second that

^ Clearly you have never experienced a B & M "short stop" before. It's like someone cracked all your ribs with a baseball bat while kicking you in the balls.

^ I know it's a completely different kind of ride, but going into the brakes at the end of The Raptor is horrible. With how fast the turn into the brakes whip you, combined with how fast the brakes slow you down make it pretty damn painful, haha.

Newer B&M use magnetic braking system, I know for sure that Silver Bullet does .. I don't think I've been on a newer B&M coaster besides that one that was constructed fairly recently. However, even in Silver Bullet's case, the magnetic brakes are used only to assist the slow down process, and then the friction brakes take over for the complete stop.

Patriot uses magnets to completely slow the train down, It's a lot more comfortable.

Raging Bull at least as the old GOOD drop.

^Agreed, plus it's not another friggin out and back.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Out and backs are fine, it's crappy out and backs that are bad.

You guys sound like you're arguing with me about Raging Bull, when I def said I like it too lol...especially the first drop.

Yes, but it's the only B&M hyper that actually has originality. Out and backs can't have that.

You watch that webcam way too much lol

The Voyage is extremely original.

I third that but wish he would stop referring to The Voyage as perfect in every way, shape, and form.

^I second that.

and if its anything like hypersonic's old brakes than yes i have. Those things practically give you airtime by how hard they try to throw you forward over your lap bar.

Wildcat @ cedar point sort of does that... Not as badly as you are describing, though.
