Best and worst coaster at CP

I think the best coaster at CP is MF. The worst is th Cedar Creek Mine Ride. Jr. Gemini was better then that!

Everybody in my Family loves Raptor more than Millennium Force but MF got a place in my heart so im going to have to say MF is the best. The worst has to be Disaster Transport, it sould be torn down and replaced with an impulse coaster or giant boomerang.

Best: Tie MF and Raptor. Worst: Cedar Creek Mine Ride, that thing is SLOW! Kiddie rides shouldn't count, because kids love them.

The best is Millenium Force, obviously. Jr. Gemini is the worst only because it's the slowest and the smallest.

My favorite coaster at Cedar Point is Raptor, and least favorite (that I am not too tall for) is Mantis. I would vote for Cedar Creek Mine Ride, but I'm sure that it would be ok if my legs weren't 6 inches too long to fit comfortably into the car.

Best: MF
Worst: Mean Streak, i would give it to Cedar Creak mine ride but at least its smoth. Jr. Gemini and Woodstock should not be counted in this becouse they are for little kids and definatly are not designed to appeal to older people.

the best: Raptor, with MF a close second
the worst: DT due to Cedar Creak mine ride being 40 or so years old.

Best- Millennium Force
Worst- Disaster Transport

I hope to try to get to CP next year and ride MF over and over and over, and ride the coasters I didn't ride last year (Corkscrew, Jr. Gemini, Wildcat, and Woodstock express).

Did anyone realize that Intamin has built the smallest and largest coasters at CP? Jr. Gemini and MF.

Best coaster: before 2000, Raptor; after 2000, MF
worst coaster: Corkscrew

CCMR is fun, especially when you get stuck on one of the lift hills because some person has a tough time getting in/out of the coaster. DT still has some perks, but I agree theming HAS to be added.

Where does Demon Drop figure in this? I think a wait for anything less than 30 minutes is good. Anything more doesn't make this Intamin creation worth riding.

Hmm, good question: For me Gemini is my favorite (guilty pleasure), but largely because not only is it fun, but it tends to have very short lines on busy days, so many rerides are possible

As for best overall, for me thats a tie between Raptor and MF. Raptor is nice and disorienting, and lots of fun, especially at night. MF has a great up, great down, and is fun, but for me kinda seems a bit short, but I still enjoy it anyway.

Worst? Its a tie between Mean Streak and Mantis. Mean Streak looks good from the ground, but is highly overbraked and gets boring after awhile, wheras Mantis had a very painful ride this past year (and yes I do stand properly on the ride), and IMO, was great when it first opened, but now, it just seems old. But thats me.

I think that Disaster Transport is the worst and Millennium Force is the best. I think that the three best ones are Raptor, Millennium Force, and Magnum XL 200. The three worst ones in my opinion are Disaster Transport, Cedar Creek Mine Ride, and Blue Streak. I think those will be the results of all of the poll.

Best, no need to say that.......

Worst, definitely Corkscrew, what an eyesore, and an example of bad engineering......

The only thing corkscrew is good for is when your walkin on the midway, and you can look up and see the train going over you, otherwise it is a useless ride.
