Today's Burning Question - Outlaw Run or Iron Rattler?

[televisedconfession]

They both look great, but I just have a feeling I'm going to end up liking iRat a lot more.

That dive into the tunnel... OMFG. I can't wait!

[A.J.]

I'm abstaining. I don't believe that you can seriously compare the two.

It's not a serious poll. It's like saying "Taco or Marshmallow?" They are both food! It's a question for fun.

^I'll take "Tacos and Iron Rattler" for $200.

I went with Outlaw Run but it was a very difficult decision. Ultimately I think context sells it for me, I'd fricking love to visit SDC.

[UberBeavis]

Screw you, I'm putting marshmallows on my taco.

I chose Iron Rattler since it looks a lot more insane than Outlaw Run.

Okay then.

 

Outlaw Run because its trains are red. Red trains are cool like bow ties.

Outlaw Run

 

'Cause I've heard/read/seen more about it, than the other one.

[GigaG]

iRat has more airtime, in my opinion.

This should have been made mid-summer when more people have tried outlaw run and iron rattler. Hell the Iron Rattler isn't even open yet!

Both look amazing, but I went with Iron Rattler just because of where it is. Nothing quite like a roller coaster going off a cliff (and 3 times!!).

[robbalvey]

I don't think people are understanding what this poll is about. It's a fun poll like "Would you rather do a mermaid or a goat?"

 

If you're reading too much into this, then you don't understand what TPR is all about, and probably should leave.

 

Maybe I should re-name it to "Would you rather..."? I dunno. I feel if I do that then there will probably be just as many complaints.

Well, the track on Iron Rattler is red so that's the one I'll choose. Red is the color of hell and the devil and I want the coasters I ride to be devilish.

I would be scared to see the results of this poll!

[TyRush]

Yea like seriously, if you choose one and not the other, you're not going to die.

[Musketeer]

I chose Iron Rattler because it looks really neat how it winds around the mountain and through the tunnel while hauling butt!

Based on looks alone

 

Outlaw Run has

- Steep near vertical first drop

- Rollover dive camel toe thingy

- Half of a high five airtime hill

- Double barrel roll

- Awesome looking trains

- Amazing setting with amazing theming

 

Iron Rattler has

- First drop reminiscent of the original, legendary, terrifying Rattler's first drop

- Texas Giant-style overbanks over a cliff face and in the spot of the old helix

- Zero G roll over the cliffside

- Outward banked high five airtime hill thingy

- Dive off the cliff into a tunnel

- Awesome looking trains

- The thing is built on the side of a damn cliff. You can't ask for a better setting.

 

Iron Rattler takes the cake in having more interesting elements. The first drop should be pretty insane with that shimmy, edging out Outlaw's rollover dive thingy. I'd take all of Iron Rattler's overbanks and tunnel dive off the cliff over Outlaw's twists through the forest and double barrel roll. Plus the whole ride sits on the side of a cliff.

 

- Oh and the new iRat has its own app store, has Siri access, can make calls, and almost kill you with its map function. Let's see Outlaw Run do that

Track on iRat is Orange. Gonna change your vote? Lol

[ytterbiumanalyst]

Outlaw Run is 28x better than Iron Rattler. Because Iron Rattler is 28x farther from my house.

[_IntaMAN_]

I guess I'll go with Outlaw Run as well.

 

WHY, you ask? Well mostly because I was watching it develop since Day 1 of construction and it grew on to be an insane balls-in-your-face-crazy coaster! And like previously stated, its pretty much completely WOOD! iRAT looks like it will be amazing as well but something about it just doesn't appeal to me, pretty sure it will be fun as well though!

[Mohead]

There's no award or anything given, it's just for stupid fun.

 

Whoa! I was told there would be ribbons and a ceremony!!

[rubysparkles]

I'm going with Iron Rattler because I think terrain coasters are cool. That first drop just looks beautiful.
