Best ride in the park ! If there's no maintenance issues the line moves quickly if they have all 5 cars going.

Raymond Frost

The fastest freakin ride ever, go from 0 to 120 miles per hour. And also up high really fast, the wait is worth it!

Kaz

First ride I rode when I got here; screamed like a girl. Rode 11 of some of the best rides at Cedar Point ; didn't scream once. Last ride I rode; screamed like a girl. I drove 3 hours just to ride this

The top thrill dragster is pretty terrifying your just sitting their it pulls you back and it shoots you up 300+ feet at 120+ mph. But you have to ride this if you go to cedar point.

Ryan Relken

Fast as advertised and AWESOME! If you ride at night in the front seat you will be covered in smashed bugs .

Madison

My favorite ride ever!!!!! Front seat is the best but any seat is good. Worth the wait every time!

Keith Martin

If you ride front seat at night, don't smile unless you want bugs in your teeth. And if you have a wig you better have an spare.

Patrick Guzowski

Don't be fat or you can't ride. I'm 6' and currently 240# and barely squeezed the seat belt on. 2 bigger guys didnt make it and had to take the walk of shame. Test fit seat before getting in line

Richard Bronosky

Front seat was absolutely worth the extra 20 minutes.

David Smith

Breaks down a lot. If you get on the platform get on the ride. We waited for 30 min on platform to ride in front car and ride broke down! Just get on it!

Jessica Nelson

Absolutely thrilling ride , even if it is short and simple. If the wait is an hour or less, you should try it.

jennifer

If you are a single rider and don't care where you sit, keep your ears open. You can usually jump ahead 4 or 5 cars.

Paula Madeira

Only 17 sec and it is awesome BUT it breaks down all the time, if it's too windy it won't run, so be aware that you can lose hours in line for nothing, cuz it can suddenly be shut down.

Adrian De Smul

This ride is awesome!!! The launch at the beginning is just insane

Danica Cosca

The best ride ever!!! Tallest and fastest in the world!!!

jennifer

Front row ! Eyelids will peel back! Keep your mouth closed in the afternoon/evenings or you'll be eating bugs .

Will Rompala

Make sure you believe all the other tips the front seat is insane

Johnny Grabowski

Ride picture will be combination of two pictures - one taken on initial blast off, the other taken after you've come out of the drop.

Dan McMillan

The ride is amazing, but fast passers screw the rides wait times for everyone else.

Mike Scavnicky

Incredible ride, hold on tight and try and keep your eyes open!

Coaster Addict

Great thrills... if only they could find a way to merge this launch/hill with the rest of Millennium Force!!

Jonathan Pavelich

The launch is incredible!

Zach Fox

Wait for the front seat !

Jake Smith

Look out onto Lake Erie and catch a glimpse of Canada from the top.

Cellucor

Love adrenaline? Give this ride a try if you dare!

Brittany Debaltz

Get the front row every time! It's definitely worth it!

Jeff B

Great ride but only worth the wait once per visit

Cedar Point

Keep arms down, head back and hold on! Nothing like 120 mph and a 420 ft tall hill to wake you up in the morning!

Chitrang Shah

U'll get 2nd round of this ride if it comes back from top to the launch pad..! :p

Nathan Poeppelman

A very unique and extreme ride everyone needs to try at least once. Read more

Joe V

Use the left line after you get near the front ..it's much faster!

james nelson

Coming down backwards after not making it over the top is the biggest thrill that can be had!

Andrew Moran

Front seat will make your balls drop.

Sarah Karshner

Best ride at Cedar Point by far!

Al Jim

Don't be afraid of the first row, it is AWESOME!

Christopher Gorgon

Couldn't fit. Apparently, 6'5 300 lbs is too big these days. Awesome ride for you "normies" though.

Michael B.

This is a nice place 2 go 2 & ride the top thrill dragster.

Elizabeth Thompson

Seriously amazing! You gotta try this!

Billy Barton

Great ride. Totally worth the long line .

Jenny Gryczan

This ride continues to scare the shit out of me! Totally worth the wait! Incredible rush!!

Adam Deleo

Kids loved this ride but very long wait

Amber Whitener

This ride breaks down quite a bit... but it's awesome! Must be 52" or taller to ride this ride.

Nicole Crista

It's broken down more times due to "mechanical difficulties". I think it's just the CD skipping. ON THE ROOF TOP SHOUT IT OUT

Kristin Hatch

Amazing!! Don't let your fear hold you back!!

J C

Greatest 17 seconds of your life.

Brooklyn Bass

The best ride ever!

Dwayne Kilbourne

Trying to get your hands up on this ride? Well , put them out like Frankenstein so sensors don't detect, and let air push them up on launch !

Becky Cain

Awesome ride!

Dallas Foodie (Danielle G.)

Ride it at noon so it looks like you're rocketing to the sun on your way up!
