Very fun ride. It has lots of loops and hanging time. I wish that more of these rides had the same inversion line-up.

"oh yea". That was my quote once Meteor really started going. It was an awesome flat ride, full of everything a flat should encompass, such as thrills and fun. The dueling spinning cars was pretty good, and I actually liked the seats facing each other. The spinning was cool, and it also reversed giving you both sensations. The slowing at the apex was best, where you could see the riders on the other car and get some wild sensations. Meteor was a really fun flat, one of the best in the park, and worth a spin.

This was a good addition to the park it is fast, fun, rerideable, it has a large capacity, and a long ride duration.

"Man, they dont waste any time on this thing." That is what my girlfriend and I said when we were waiting in line for the first time for this thing. We went more towards the middle, and werent really impressed. It was just like one giant salt-n-pepper shaker ride. But, then I rode it on another trip on one of the outer seats and it was a lot better. You can see a lot more that just the other person across from you. The sky, the ground, other rides... all as you just keep getting flipped and flipped and flipped. It is awesome when it holds you upsidedown at the end of the ride. Good ride. Wasnt impressed at first, but it took a few rerides to realize that it is pretty good. This was a good addition of Dorney so claps for them. Just remember to sit in one of the outer positions.

The first time i went on, I sat across from this lady who was screaming so loud that she was spitting on me. I went on two more times and the ride was amazing. I loved it when they hold you upside down. The best seats are the ones where you are facing out.

Not too bad a ride. I find that it hangs you upside down a little bit too long for my taste, it gives me a rather disconcerting feeling, but a fine ride for what it is.

Pretty cool expansion for Dorney. They needed some extreme flats, and they got one. This ride is very nerveracking, especailly when you are held upside-down for a while. I wished that it were a bit longer... and whats with the three across seating? Why not 4 or 2? Oh well, still a fun ride, nonetheless.

This is a "Hawk 48" ride made by Zamperla. I like Fabbris Kamikaze 2 (Bansai) more because you dont sit face to face which could get bad if one of the people across from you happens to get sick. The site you see when your car and the other car is upsidedown is really cool.

A fun flat ride. This ride flips you head over heels several times before holding you 40 feet from the ground at a 90 degree angle. A fun ride with a great color scheme.
