Six Flags Great America, Gurnee, Illinois

It's a tough one to decide my favorite hyper coaster. It's either Magnum at Cedar Point or Raging Bull. I just like the airtime and trains on Raging Bull and the ejection in the back seat on the first drop is wonderful and still freaks me out.

Here's a nice mix of airtime and laterals on this hill. Raging bull flows wonderfully, it gives plenty of changes in motion, airtime, laterals and surprises.

The Bull's finale is a great figure eight which it's diving down into.

Excuse me while I touch the sky. Vertical Velocity is a blast of a ride...especially the blast of the linear induction motors that get you going up to 70 miles per hour and then sends you straight up.

Bond is exhausted and beat after a fun day at Great America. Thankfully with the Whizzer off of the chopping block he'll be able to enjoy it again.
