Nitro- it's amazing!!

Nitro is certainly fresher in my mind than Chariot, but I DO seem to recall getting more air on Chariot.  I loved Nitro, but my recollection of Chariot is even better.

Both get blown away by Phantom's Revenge in my book, though :)

Different strokes for different folks I guess. I think Nitro is B&M's greatest!!!

let's compromise...all hypers are good!!

cia2420, have you been on Wild Thing? ;)

Joe, who says he'd rather ride a hyper over most anything else.

Nitro, Legend, and IOA. Is there anything better?

when I want a ride on a hyper, I'm going straight for S:ROS at SFNE.

legendary stated it perfectly, nitro provides much more intensity than Raging Bull. I have ridden RB in its two seasons, and this year it has definitely seemed to have been tamed down compared to the inaugural season. Still no coaster tops SROS at SFNE at Airtime, I think almost everyone can agree on this!!

no Legendary, i haven't been on wild Thing. Why?

I think I can take that one...because from what I've heard and seen, Wild Thing is probably the least thrilling of pretty much all hypers.  It's braked to death, and its *massive* drawn-out turnaround looks a bit blah...

What looks even worse than Wild Thing IMHO is Pepsi Max Big One. It only has a good 1st drop after that it is blah...

I was lucky enough to ride Nitro, AC, Steel Force and SROS at SFNE  this season. I give the edge in airtime to Nitro over AC. I found Steel Force lacking in the air department but SROS was awesome!

I haven't ridden Raging Bull, but I did have the opportunity to ride several times each on Apollo and Nitro this summer.  I thought Nitro was clearly superior to Apollo.  Caution, do not base your opinion on either of these coasters on a morning ride.  They both start out as slugs, but pick up wonderfully late in the day.

I still givbe the edge to Intimin though for their marvelous conbination of speed and airtime.

Haven't ridden RB, but I thought the layout of Nitro was MUCH more interesting than that of AC.  Of course, I prefer the S:RoS airtime, and I had the most lukewarm reaction of anyone as far as AC was concerned.  Nitro I thought was a better ride, but everyone has to form their own opinion...by RIDING 'em!
