Best Place to Sit

My friends and I are planning on going to Cedar Point later this summer. It's been a while since we've gone, so I wanted to ask you guys where you thought was the best place to sit on the coasters?

I like to sit in the last car, 1st seat on magnum and gemini. Other than that front or back is always good.

I think the middle of the Magnum is the best. I sat in the very front last year and those bunny hills made me jump out of my seat and the lapbar just killed my stomach, I'll never do that again.

The very back on Millennium Force. You fly down the hill!!! :)

^Agreed. Front seat on Raptor and Mantis (and TTD if you don't mind the 1/2 hr wait). 1-3 on Magnum. And front seat on Mean Streak if you dare ride it.

Awesome. Thanks a lot for all the replies, guys.

I think I might have to avoid the Mantis this year. That crotch bar always hurts my legs.

If the main feature of the coaster is its drops, I always sit as far back as I can to maximize the hills and floater air. As much as the "ejector seat" on Magnum is hyped, I still think the back three seats give a more intense ride with better airtime. So, back seat on MF, Gemini, Magnum, Blue Streak. I also prefer it for Corkscrew (for that bunny hill) and Wicked Twister (for the 'dangle').

I sit as close to the front as I can on Mantis, Mean Streak and Raptor.

I really have no strong preference on TTD or Maverick, and when I get done with either of those lines, I just look for a short wait for a seat.

Wildcat is excluded from this list, as it only has the one car, and I really don't care where I sit on Mine Ride, Iron Dragon, or Disaster Transport.

Ha, I actually have a list saved from when a friend asked me the same question. Just my personal preferences, of course...

Blue Streak - middle seat, last car has given me some great rides, great airtime, not jerky at all
Disaster Transport - often you can't get the seat you want, but last time I rode in the front and found I enjoyed it a lot more
Gemini - middle seat of any car, but especially the back
Iron Dragon - this ride is rather slow, so the best way to get any thrill is in the last car
Magnum - same as Blue Streak and Gemini, middle seat of last car for speed, airtime, and less jerky ride - I thought the front car was rather dull
Mantis - front, so it's easier to anticipate quick turns - knees locked, one ear against the headrest to minimize headbanging - I swear getting a good ride on this is an art in itself
Maverick - any seat is good for me - I ride with my hands gripping the top of the over-the-shoulder restraint, to help cushion any headbanging
Mean Streak - I will only ride this in the very front seat - even the back seat of the first car will require a chiropractor afterward
Millennium Force - back has more speed, but I'll ride anywhere - one 'trick' is to go for the front of the last car: because of where the station entrance is and how the last queue wraps around, often people miss the 2nd-to-last row and it'll have a shorter wait
Raptor - front, barefoot if the weather's nice - or else last row
Top Thrill Dragster - front is cool, but the longer wait significantly increases your chances of the ride breaking down for the fifth time :)
Wicked Twister - 2nd-to-last row, right seat has the best view of the ground!

Wicked Twister is about 10 times better when your in the back.(that actually goes for most rides but mainly WT)

Front for Raptor, Millenium, and Gemini. Anywhere on Magnum. :) But if you don't want to get beat up to much, I would suggest the middle.

I absolutely love the back seat on TTD
