Movie Of Dragster POV Rollback???

Hey has anybody found a POV movie of the dragster during a rollback, i still haven't gotten to see one, on tape or in person, even just one of it non-POV would be good, THANKX :)
I have never seen one, nor heard of one out there. That would be neat though.

Rollbacks are the most amazing thing...well when you are on it at least. Nothing like getting a slow, fantastic view at the top of the tower, before falling backwards 400 feet. I would hate for them to do a POV of a rollback because then everybody can know what it looks like to rollback...and I think that it should only be something a select few lucky people get to experience and see. Besides, watching it would be absolutely nothing compared to being on it ;)
I'm still trying to figure out what everyone's fascination with a rollback is. I don't see any fun in having to wait for a train to launch again in an already long wait.

Of course, I've only been on the ride once, and it wasn't a rollback. :)

If you go to CBSnews.com and search for top thrill dragster theres a video and the train that they have the POV on rollsback. Its a good video.
hey thankx dubbslaw3, and cpfan, i have been looking everywhere for one of them, howed you find it

I was lucky enough to experience a roll back. It was awesome b/c i was in the front row and it was at night. The ride was closed to everyone but not to the people in the station. Every single train that went would rollback, but they kept loading people. It took forever to roll each train back to the lauch position. But it was worth the wait, theres nothing like going backwards 400 ft!
ehhh rollbacks are over rated anyways........unless your on one.

I do have to say that one of the "improvements" for Dragster so far in this young season is that the ride is up and running faster now after a rollback.

Granted a great number of small things can cause the ride to go down, but they did a lot of work on the break fins. If you now notice that after a train launches the fins gradually all come up at the same time instead of once section at a time.

Offtopic but it was rolling back like crazy this weekend. I probably saw about 20 something but I'm sure there were more. On Saturday when it opened they had only the front half of the train with people. I was lucky enough to get on one.
