Other than that I agree from what I see. Looks much better in the first half than the second. A great ride, but not one of the best in the world to me. I'll stick to considering rides like Bizarro and Intimidator 305 being the best steel coasters for me in the world, though I've yet to check out Intimidator 305 myself. Soon enough...
I305 is over rated. That coaster is an example of how some people ride it and brainwash everyone else into thinking how good it is. The lift hill is way too fast that the drop is over so quickly and that rush of acceleration from a couple miles per hour is just not there like on the first drop of most coasters. Don't get me wrong, I love I305 and think it is ridiculously out of control and fun, but it doesn't quite make it in my top 10.
