Can you notice the Gs on Wildcat?

While all caught up in the hooplah about amusement park safety, the issue over bigger means more dangerous was brough. An example of this argument was that the Wldcat actually pulls more Gs than Millennium Force. My question is, can you actually feel saome serious Gs on the Wildcat? I haven't been on it in a LONG time, and I am ready for a spin on this Schwarzkoph creation!

Sure, the final helix is really intense. High Gs have never bothered me, but it definately is noticeable, and that's why the ride ops signal riders to brace themselves at the end, because of the rapid deceleration. Wildcat is a great ride!

The drops on Wildcat are pretty good.

The helices and the two bigger drops you do feel them.

You also pull some pretty good linear Gs on the brakes.

You said it the helixes crack my freakin neck

Sweet, I can wait to get a ride on this puppy!

You can actually feel the (hard foam) seat cushion compress beneath you in the three major drops. If that isn't enough for you, try sitting on your fingertips. Still not convinced? Build yourself a tube, spring, and sinker accelerometer and see what kind of reading you get.

I have said it befor the Wildcat is the most dangerous ride at Cedar Point.

A bad day at CP is better than a good day at work.

I think the third major drop on the Wildcat is one of the most intense drops in the park. The final helix also pulls some major G's.

Good things come in small packages.

What kind of coaster type does Wildcat classify as? Wild mouse or Miniature Steel?

I stay crunchy...even in milk!

It's an early Schwarzkofp(sp) Wild Mouse I believe...the irony is, is that it's called Wildcat. Seems a bit odd to me.

It's not actually a mouse. Those typically have strong laterals and sharp turns, which the Wildcats don't have. 'Cats are about strong positve and linear accleraations.
