How to take a ride on the highest roller coaster in the country.
How I did it: Cedar Point knows roller coasters. The park is loaded with them. But
Top Thrill Dragster is a different breed of thrill machine. Like some
mutant monster that emerged from a pile of radioactive goo, it sits
smack dab in the middle of the park's midway looking impossibly tall
and menacing. No slow click-clack-click ascent up a lift hill; no
teetering-at-the-top followed by a cathartic first drop; no inversions.
It's just an unholy 120-mph launch up, over, and down an insane
420-foot tower.
Resources: Although, it is no longer the tallest roller coaster, It was at the time. I have also, ridden the tallest wooden roller coaster (Son of Beast at Kings Island). I have no doubt that in 10 years these roller coasters will be 10th or 11th tallest.
