I just can't believe we were right the whole time with the name, except for the Top Thrill part.

They really surprised me! I wasn't expecting the name Dragster to be in the name.

If you look in the photo desk section and then click trains, it shows pics of what the trains will be like, those trains are so cool!

I'm *way* impressed.

Those have GOT to be the hottest looking trains ever. The station looks amazing to boot.

Finally CP will theme a ride good.

Simply awesome! The trains are incredible, the station looks sweet, NO OTSR'S (woohoo), and how can we overlook the encouraging projected capacity of 1500 pph!

I don't know how many people are actually going to say "Top Thrill Dragster"... I'll just always refer to it as Dragster. :) Or is TTD next in the line of acronyms?

Also, I love the "christmas tree" countdown to the launch. :)

Oh, and it looks like Fluidcoasters gets to be the envy of GTTP for guessing "strata-coaster". ;)

Wow.....wow....wow. I am amazed. This is better than I could have imagined! I never thought it would be 420, but wow! Those trains are the coolest thing I've ever seen. And just having lapbars really makes my day. Did anyone see the Q&A where they said they will make sure riders are tightly in their restraints? Sounds like some stapling will be going on, but hey, we've got the biggest coaster in the world!
