Most Dragster rides in one day

As I posted elsewhere on this forum, Wednesday, August 31 was an incredible day at the Point. I don't believe that Dragster's line ever left the loading platform all day long, and even in the middle of the day it was sometimes a walk-on. So my question is this. How many times have you ridden Dragster in a single day? I managed to get 17 rides on August 31, which I still find hard to believe. Can anyone beat that? I know this is an accurate count because I had a pen and paper to keep track. And in case you think that all I did that day was hang around Dragster, I also managed to get 17 rides on Millennium Force that same day. And, yes, I already know that I don't have a life. :)

Didn't it lose it's excitement after the 9th or so time around?

I usually keep it to one a day. However, if I would have seen the line short like that then I would have taken full advantage.


We'll miss you MrScott and Pete

5 in one day back on a Sunday in September in 2003.
Two front seat rides.

If you get 1 you should count yourself lucky.

I got 5 rides during Employee Ride Night, which was pretty impressive in itself, considering how little time we had.

I can't wait to get as much rides in one day as some of you have(sounds pathetic I know).

And I look forward to one of those short Employee Ride Nights bholcomb. When I get a job at CP that is.:)

Ride nights are fun. Anyone who worked with me will vouch that I liked to be loud. Okay, that's not different from normal.

Still, I think I got 5 or 7 rides on Raptor Night, 5 on Millennium Force night, 5 on Magnum night.. I got 10 on Gemini night. They're fun to go to.

Once a week, usually. One ride each night.

Are you talking about Larry Scott?

No... I think he's talking about Earl. Ahhh... good ole' Earl. Heh.. anyone who's had to stand in line with him gets my sympathy. ;)

For rides in one day... I think I topped out at 14 in one day... but, that was in a matter of an hour and a half.

Test rides, Friday night Halloweekends. ;) That was the day we got so bored with riding in the front, we started riding in the middle and the back.

One round on TTD is really enough for me. I don't like to over do it, because my opinion on the ride might change. I did ride it twice in May (once in the middle; once in the front). The ride is the best in my mind, but it can get boring if you do it enough.
