TTD not the fastest anymore!

Sence Hershy Park announced their new first hydrolic launch coaster with inversions. And goes from 0 to 72 in 2 sec. If u multiply that number by 2 for 4sec.(launch time 4 dragster) u get 144 mph. And that is faster than dragster! So would Storm Runner(the new voted name) be the fastest

No it wouldn't. I doubt that ride in the space it has to launch can go 144. Also are you trying to tell us if you mutliply 120*2 you get 240. That would be Top Thrill Dragster's launch So that theory is totaly WRONG

A coaster in Japan gets up to 106mph in 2secs, but TTD is still the fastest. When a coaster goes 130mph in 1, 2, 3, 4,...10secs then TTD wouldn't be the fastest. Records don't count acceleration or the time it takes to reach the speed. TTD probably gets up to 72mph in 2secs too.

Only thing better than the 2003 season will be the 2004 season! :)

If that was true you could say the same for Xcelerator and Volcano.

Judging by the actual stats, Hersey's new ride would have a faster acceleration, but I doubt both systems are much different. I also believe that Dragster gets to 120 mph way before 4 seconds is up, but every launch is one big blur for me.

What do you expect from someone who thinks "u," "hydrolic" and "sence" are words.

If you wish to continue posting here, please spell out your words and do so correctly..
