Steel Dragon Vs. Millenium Force

I have heard about this new Steel Dragon coaster and its stats. From what i've herd,(318 ft. drop,60* angle, 96 MPH) it sounds like MF is a much better coaster. 60* drop, 318 foot drop, boring. What are your opinions?

Of course it is... Steel Dragon just added an extra 100ft to a hyper-coaster! MF is comething completely diffrent in my opinion. I mean home many coasters do you know that drop at an 80* slant and turn you at 122* banked turn? Not tooo many if ya ask me!

"Your obssesed w/ that place aren't you?" (as stated by my best-friends about CP)

I think SD2k's coup is it's turnaround section, actually, which is in many ways like MF's island section. It should provide a nice mix of airtime, speed, and views. How smooth is runs and how good the elements are is yet to be determined.

These are two different types of coasters
and should not be compared. This has been discussed before. And, to be fair, we cannot compare yet because no one has ridden Steel Dragon yet. It may be a much better coaster, but, unless you want to go to Japan, we may never know. And personally, I don't want to go to Japan to ride a coaster, just like most Japanese people will not come to the US to ride MF.
