Iron Dragon was slow paced and boring through most of the ride. This was my first suspended, and I was not impressed with it.

This is pretty boring. the best part is the helixes over the lake.

I actually thought this was a pretty fun coaster and rode it acouple more times than it I should have and it is probably worth but it is 1 of two suspended coaster that I have been on and is number 1.

Very rough, very slow pacing, and you cannot feel the swinging at all. I am not ever gonna ride this again unless i am forced to.

When they removed the trees to construct Top Thrill Dragster, the illusion of speed was ruined.

/\ You're not alone. I thought Iron Dragon was pretty fun. Then again, I was in the front row of the first car (the only good seat on ANY Arrow suspended coaster) and I had no expectations when I got on it.

Tanks, Its not rough at all. It's pacing is alright. It's not terrific, but not slow.

This was one of my first coasters and I liked it when I was 9 or 10, but it got old, FAST. The helixes at the end were great though, and for some reason i love the swinging when you're heading into the brake run.

I found this to be a pretty fun ride, but I wasnt expecting much. Its pretty relaxing and I think its best at night.

This ride completely sucks compared to Big Bad wolf or even Top Gun at PKI! The end is fun though.

I absolutely loved this ride! Next to Raptor, it was my favorite in the park (I have not ridden Dragster yet though). It wasn't that it was fast or thrilling, but rather cause it was long and fun and i could have stayed on this one forever! By far the best suspended coaster ever!!
