I'm actually loving the fact the ride isn't as smooth anymore. The trains and track have some character now with some vibration to go with it. Now I never wanted it to get "Magnum" rough, but where it is right now and where it will go over the next few years will be great and get me to go on it more often. Downside to all that is the fact that I can't sleep anymore during the ride ;)

The first drop, followed by the turn in which my eyes tear and my mouth lets out a bit of drool and I feel both the tear and drool sliding off the side of my face. At that point I feel sorry for the people behind me.

I thought the airtime on Millennium Force rocked, alotta people say Milly-ennium has no airtime, but when I rode it in the front, the airtime was massive.
I think the duration of the airtime is what made me think it had so much... Other then that the First Drop/Turnaround combo is the best part of the ride.

I love speed, and Millennium Force has plenty of it from start to finish. I also think its great how you get to watch it pass by while you are waiting in line. I remember the first time I was waiting in line, I was getting nervous, I could feel the vibrations in the ground of the trains passing by and the air blowing around as each train passed. It was great, adds a lot of suspense especially for a first time rider.

I absolutley LOVE Millennium Force, hints the name MillenniumForceSmurf2008. Everything about it is amazing, I have riden in the front seat and backseat, both different experiences. The view is GREAT, height speed, i don't see how anything could compare to it. I remember my first time riding, it was 1:30 AM, and i had to go to the restroom as im sitting in the car, so anxious and scared. Then all i could think about while climbing the first hill, is what the hell am i doing to myself. I put my hands up, and have loved it ever since. Top Thrill Dragster is great, the speed, height, 90 degree hill, but it just can't compare to Millennium Force. Those of you saying its boring, don't know what your missing out on, becuase it will never get old.

i have no idea what you are talking about, i think it is as smooth as ever before, never better. It feels like you are floating on a cloud at 92 MPH! Millennium Force i would have to say is "Hands Up" the best roller coaster on earth. GREAT height, GREAT speed, GREAT drops, GREAT ride elements, GREAT Airtime, GREAT EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!

How am I supposed to pick my favorite element out of it? I won't ;) . I LOVE the first drop(my fave in the world). For me, I love the hill going on to the MI, because when I am way up there(and I DO get airtime on that hill) I love feeling like I'm gonna go flying really high(that sounded cheesey). I also love the overbanked turns, and the bunny hop at the end.
Lara Croft - The Ultimate Tomb Raider!
"Wind it up!!"
Riiiiiight....
Anyway, the best part has to be the first drop. It just seems to go on forever. But really, the whole ride is amazing. It's not hard to see why its the #1 coaster in the world.
