Mossed Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Out of the parks I've been to, I'd say Cedar Point has the best 1-2 punch with Millennium Force and Steel Vengeance (sorry Maverick fans) You don't have to apologize for picking an inferior coaster to Maverick. That is on you. Definitely Cedar Point - Steel Vengeance and Maverick. This park wins even if one of those two didn't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Skyrush & Lightning Racer (one's crazy, the other's fun -- I love 'em both) Magnum & Millennium Force (iconic record-breakers and faces of the franchise) Dragster & Millennium Force (my pick) With all of the one-trick pony talk, Kingda Ka being a little bit bigger, downtime, and having Maverick/Steel Vengeance there, I feel like the most exhilarating ride in the park has become a little bit underrated. Dragster is it still the only coaster that makes me say "gulp," and then I giggle like an RCT peep at the exit and run right back in line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PKI Jizzman Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Storm Chaser and Lightning Run are both epic coasters. They totally lived up to the hype and are one of the best one two punches in the US if you're looking for extreme airtime coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
