In your opinion, what is the best launch coaster out there? If you haven't been on one, which looks the best? I've been on 3 (all in the same park!)- Flight of Fear, Volcano:The Blast Coaster, and Hypersonic XLC. I'm not sure which was better, V:TBC of HXLC, but since HXLC's launch was AWESOME, I'll have to go with that.

I've been on three: Greezed Lightnin' @ SFAW, Mr.Freeze @ SFOT, and Poltergeist @ SFFT. The launch on the latter two was awesome, but Greezed Lightnin' is just a better ride.

Even though its not a coaster I want to take a trip to Old Town(in Orlando) to ride the new G-Force ride. It opened a couple weeks ago in and launches youi in a mustang drag racing car from 0-120 in 2 seconds.

I've ridden Hulk, Wicked Twister, TTD, and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster. As far as the launches go, TTD's launch is the best. As far as the coasters go, Hulk is the overall best.

The question was the best, not the top 2, where the Hulk would be #2.

Oh, yeah, I agree with that. The launch on TTD is better, but Hulk is the better overall coaster. (If that's what you mean)

The Hulk - world's only uphill launch. The force is that much greater because of it.
