I rode Wildfire a ton of times at the ACE Spring Con this past summer. It is very smooth and a great ride! My favorite part of the ride is the first drop - its the best B&M first drop outside of their hypers. It is a straight drop, rather than the signature turning drops, and there is tons of airtime in the backseat. I think it is definitely worth the money for the park, it is a great addition. The main complaint from most people is that the ride is a bit on the short side, but it is a perfect sized coaster for SDC. Also, the scenery on this ride (mountains and trees as far as the eye can see) cannot be beat.
I would probably wait 2 hours to ride it since I don't get out to SDC much (although it sure would suck to wait that long - do the lines really get THAT long at this park?).
On a side note, this coaster has an incredible gift shop as soon as you exit the ride. It is nothing but Wildfire merchandise - I've never seen such a variety (*at least* 10 varieties of t-shirts, as well as every other thing that you can imagine).
