Is Raging Bull Dying?

...or I can go ride B&M hypers...;)

But I want MORE than float, I want "kablam air" (TM-CM)...the kind that launches me into the restraints so hard that it scares me....now THAT is bliss....:)

bill, got my best Nitro rides *ever* last week, and that thing is NO Ride of Steel baby....

'Kablam Air' - I like that stuff, too.

PR, S:RoS, Magnum, etc.

Can't wait for New England.

As long as it isn't "Kazaam" air - not a Shaq fan. :-)

Raging Bull is the 5#1+!!!!!!!!!111111111111111!! Never Taer it down!

Dumbest. Post. Ever.

Also, I dont know how anyone can like AC nearly as much as RB....it seems much slower..the 1st drop doesnt eject you because the dip is so large, the turn around is too drawn out and takes forever...I guess Ill give it a plus for the 3rd hill and the ending hills being pretty good.

I also love how everyone knows exactly how the trims work.....come on a cold day in October and see what happens.

I don't know how you can really compare AC's out and oack layout with Raging Bull's twister layout and I tend to think the turnaround is AC's best feature.

And I have been there on very cold day in October, the trims still turn the bull into a steer.

If given the choice I'd choose a hamburger over a hotdog anyday of the week.

Whoa...I have to defend my baby MF! I think we can all agree that MF and RB are different rides, so we don't need to compare them directly. Please don't tell me that MF had no air, it has freefall in the back seat, and great combination ejector/floater air on the other three hills up in front. I really don't think MF or RB have much air between the two. Just remember MF is a ride for speed, not airtime, so it really has to go in a different category than a B&M hyper. Let's all just agree to disagree and move on :)

"No, it offends me as a comedian."

Im a big fan of Raging Bull but cant see how you can make negative comments about AC at BGW. That ride has great airtime at the end and provides a excellant ride.

I pretty much stopped reading halfway through page 1... but I feel like I should throw in my 2 cents...

I like RB more than Nitro, less than Magnum, MF, SRoS or SRoS... more than Goliath (SFMM).... they are different animals... One complaint about B&M hypers has to be those massive, heavy restraints... Why cant all restraints stay in place like Intamin or PTC?... I hate when i get stapled because of a hill.

I like AC, but dont love it....was my #6 til I rode it at the Con this year...now its #12. Its pretty damn easy to compare AC, RB, and Nitro I dont care if its a twister or out and back. Nitro...being my fav of the 3.. Ive just heard enough of this wining about that 3rd hill trim, which, doesnt stop any air on that hill in the back row. In the front it takes a little off...how do I know this? Cause ive been in the front with no trim, and the back for that matter...and youd all be disappointed If you got to ride it with the trim off and saw it barely made a difference.

Either way I love the ride, and even after 400+ rides it doesnt phase me at all....its just that much fun.

BTW, many o' people come back cheering on the ride each day...not like opening year mind you..but they still do, and this goes for all coasters after they have been at the park a while...no need to cheer for a ride they have ridden before. MFs cheer has died down since 2000 and the only reason most people cheer is because they are asked "How was your ride??!" Now if that was done at RB....youd get the same response.
