Ive ridden KK TTD and SR, and my favorite is storm runner. The launch is on par with the stratas imo. It packs a punch in that small amount of space. Then afterwards it may be short, but it has all kinds of forces, especially airtime, and is very smooth. TTD is a close second for its sheer speed and size, as well as trains. Whats ur opinion?

Xcelerator,TTD, then KK. I'm excited to see where SR will compare once I ride it this summer.

I haven't been on any, but I would say Formula Rossa looks fun.

It's was fun until after the first turn. It has a great launch, strong ejector air on the first hill and a cool high-speed turn. Then it gets really repetitive and drawn out. A pretty fun ride but nothing extremely special. The Fiorano GT Challenge was better IMO.

Yeah I haven't been able to ride it but it just had the worst pacing from what I've seen. On topic I just loved storm runner. Best 26 second ride out there.

Having ridden all four in the US, I am a HUGE fan of Storm Runner. Such a well done ride and I wish it was longer. TTD comes a close second, I found it's launch quite exhilarating. I like going really fast. :)
