Maverick Or Top Thrill Dragster?

You ranked the coasters without having ridden them. That's all.

Oh, OK point taken, thank you and sorry for the hassle I caused!

I'm more sure about Top Thrill Dragster than Maverick.

I'll take a sure shot of getting pulled to the MAX, all the fire that goes with it than what I think is a weird coaster, particularly in the second half. I don't like the big S like section out of the second launch. Even though TTD lacks Kingda Ka's "Happy Hill" I still choose TTD.

I liked Maverick a lot more than TTD. TTD is simply a gimmick, the only thrilling part is the launch; after that it's just up and then back down. Maverick actually has some meat to it in the form of weird elements and some good airtime, not to mention a moderately thrilling launch.

Top Thrill Dragster is a one trick pony. It's a blast, but only for a short amount of time.

 

Maverick has launches, inversions, and other amazing elements.

 

In terms of reridability, Maverick easily takes the cake.

While TTD gave me such a rush, Maverick gave me pure fun for a WAY longer time. And after the ride was over I thought I actually rode a wild horse or something.

I love both coasters a lot. They're my number one and number two favorites. However, speed is bred into my family (my dad races trucks, my brother and I race 4-wheelers) and for that reason I like Dragster just a tiny bit more. However, they offer two totally different experiences. On terms of layout and total enjoyment, Maverick takes the cake. But Dragster's launch is just amazing!

With out a dought it would be Maverick. I would take Xcelerator over TTD. I think the launch is a bit better, It might not have the speed and hight that TTD has. It just a shame it's at Knott's.
