Rank the Coasters at The Point.

There seems to be alot of differnce in opinion on the worst coaster at CP. Especially when it comes to the Blue Streak, Mantis and Gemini.If everyone RANKED there coasters 1-12 (not including the JR. and the Stock)I think A better understanding of what the majority of people think are the best and worst at CP would be made clear. Take into effect ALL aspects of the ride, not just the ride itslef, such as line, appearence, and reliablilty.

1. Millennium Force
2. Magnum
3. Raptor
4. Gemini
5. Mantis
6. Blue Streak
7. Corkscrew
8. Mean Streak
9. Wildcat
10. Mine Ride
11. Iron Dragon
12. The biggest Disaster of All

4. Blue Streak
5. Mean Streak

2. Raptor

6. Corkscrew
7. Mean Streak
8. Gemini
9. Wildcat
10. Magnum XL 200 (I still think the lap bars are painful...)

Let's all not get mean-spirited here, and remember everyone has their favorites! My husband's is the Mean Streak, because he prefers wooden coasters to anything else. To each his own!

This reminds me of a quote that Old Timer Tim said a few months back that the coasters are like having 14 children, they are all unique in their own special way. Magnum is my favorite, then MF and then Raptor. I don't see how people could rank 14 coasters like that.

That’s based on the number of rides I took last year. Based entirely on life time totals, Iron Dragon would be second, followed by Gemini and Mine Ride. What can I say? I like inverted coasters and steel track wood frame machines, and the Point has two of each.
