So a question for anyone who has been up there, how long do you estimate the wait would be in the regular que after you pass through the metal detector? I thought the old dragster had alot more switchbacks in the que and i can remember waiting hours for it and they still had empty que switchbacks that were not in use
@TheChainLift
@TheChainLift 3 ай бұрын
I believe I overheard at media day that the queue past the metal detectors is approximately an 1-1/2 hour wait. I expect a lot of overflow out onto the midway this summer for the queue.

May be a silly question, but…my biggest question is how do you pay for onride photo without a wallet since your wallet is at the other end of the coaster 🤣

Ha! Fair question. On Media Day, the photos were in the same place they were with TTD. We saw that small building with the Top Thrill 2 Photos sign, closer to the lockers. Maybe when park is operating normally, they'll have it moved over there. 🤷‍♂️

That higher center of gravity of the train definitely adds to the spiral down the drop feeling different. Intamin designed it around the heart line of the rider, now it’s somewhere in your gut. The supports holding the track actually had to be scalloped out to extend the clearance around riders on the spiral drop, because the ride chassis is so much higher off the track.

Those aluminum trains are going to have issues and may start to have stress fractures. Its a tall train meaning larger wheel and the coaster is already doing its side to side shake thingy. It seems like it throws you now coming down the top hat on the twisting section. I can only imagine how its going to run when its hot.

it most likely felt faster because the original dragster did not launch at exactly 120. it was somewhere closer to around 110. this was done to prevent wear and tear on the track. Top thrill 2 launches at (or closer to) 120, so that’s why it feels faster. (hence why rollbacks will be less likely on this coaster)

My impression on that final launch off the spike was that while you're not being accelerated as hard as the old Dragster launch, you spend a LOT more time at a 100+MPH speed, which is an equally insane feeling.
@TheChainLift
@TheChainLift 3 ай бұрын
That's exactly right. It's more sustained high speed. You definitely get over the Top Hat element and whip into the vertical roll faster, too. It's noticeable, at least on our rides.
