The front. You can see all, and its a differnt feeling than ridding in the back. Ive never ridden in dead back on Raptor. But Ive been on all but like 2 other rows.

I would say the front of the back row farthest right seat. It's pretty sweet on the first drop you get whipped out across the midway.

The front is nice for a view other than the --usual--, but if you want to experience the RIDE, the back right side is a must. Sorry you won't see anything, but atleast you'll be disoriented when you get off. :)

Actually, if you are not in the front, just look down as you ride. You can see quite a bit if you do that.

Well I have to say back row far right, back row far left you lose your stomach a tad bit more on the drop (from what i remember). I personally like the wipped feeling (riding in back) on coasters rather than being pushed. Care to add anything LuvRaptor.

Hello everybody. I'm back. Been held up with other things. Thankfully ACE was gracious enough this time to send me a renewal form. I will be at Coastermania 2000 this year. My favorite seat on the Raptor. Without a doubt, front far right seat. I love the first drop because you get whipped outward on that right side. Anyway, looking forward to seeing those of you who are members as well at Coastermania, and let's dominate June 2. Personally, we should take small stones and write all over the pavement "ACE was here on June 2." Later everybody.

Please wait till the ride comes to a complete
stop!

I would like to think out of my 176x flights on Raptor last year I managed to get like 150 of them in my fav seat last row far right. I feel the front row has a couple of downfalls (no pun intended) 1- of course is the wait 2- when you fly from the front row you can see where you are going and what is going to happen-to me this "kills" the inverts, corkscrew and cobra roll for your body prepares for it since your eyes see it coming. The sensation is just not the same as it is from the back seat.
However-nothing beats the front row at night-
especially in a downpour...
Memories of last October...sigh
