I like the "Spaceshot" side. Not many rides launch you straight up. It's a great night ride. I've watched it since it was built, and you get more bouncing out of the red side as well. I'm also afraid of going up slow because of a fear of heights. But nothing could be as intense as the "RipCord's" ascent. But once you fall it's worth it. Maybe this year I'll ride the green side.
Another reason I like the turbo drop side more is because like others have mentioned, you can actually enjoy the view for a while before they drop you. On the space shot side, you barely get to see anything while up high.
------------------ What is most anticipated event of 2003? the debut of Dragster, the release of Metallica's new album, the release of Terminator 3, or the release of Matrix:Reloaded...tough call.
