Those two are nothing similar, RB doesn't even go upside down.

It seem's there is a bit more debate than anticipated:) Not been on either but would give my left bull to go on Raging Ball!:):)
Ooh, tough choice:
I never thought I'd say it, but after riding V2 for the first time today, I have to vote for it. After riding the Bull a few weeks ago it had moved up to my number two, just below Millennium Force. However, V2 gave such a rush.
I feel that even from the back row (where I rode it), the view from the top of the straight spike of V2 was incredible. And even though you don't turn as much from the back on the twisted spike (or so I'm told; I haven't been able to ride the front seat), it wasn't a major part of the ride, IMHO. The part that makes it better than Raging Bull is the rush you get from the speed and facing the ground straight down from 178 feet up.
But, I must put in a final word. We who call SFGAm our home park have two very special coasters here that in my experience have hardly been rivaled, not to mention other great coasters like the original Batman the Ride and Viper.
I've only had the pleasure of riding V2 once (on it's first day to make it even nicer !), but I still have to give the award to Raging Bull, especially if you are sitting in the back seat. Besides, if you enjoy the freefall feeling, you have Giant Drop right next to RB. You can just hop back and forth between the two of them. With V2 on the other side of the park, I imagine the lines for RB & GD will be wonderfully short !
Hate to switch from V2 to Deja Vu, but is it me, or did they say on one of the coaster shows on Discovery that the Deja Vu's are going to be the fastest inverted coasters?! Just how fast are they saying this puppy will go?!
This isn't even a contest. Raging Bull is the best overall coaster at the park. If I was to vote for the most Xtreme coaster it would be V2. The Impluse coasters are the most extreme launch out there, I just hope they expand on the design into another full cicuit coaster like VOLCANO.
Raging Bull the best SFGAM has to offer.

LOL Stephen Reeves...Anyway, I think RB would be better........I went on S:UE and it was not all that. It was like a tall pirate ship on wheels IMO

Well if you havn't riden it don't make assumptions. I thought Alpie was going to be everything, but it was nothing to me.

Ahem.....just for the record:
Viper is much better than all of them anyway.

ravenguy98, are you joking? Even though Viper is my third favorite ride in the park, I don't think it's quite as thrilling as RB or V2. It gives out great airtime, and it incredibly smooth for a wooden roller coaster, but RB and V2 beat it out by a little bit. I guess everybody has there opinions though, so i'm not going to argue any more.
Right on Ravenguy.........well maybe not much better, but better none the less.
Regardless of whether or not you are being sarcastic, ravenguy, I agree with your comment on viper being the best coaster in the park. Of course it doesn't quite measure up to Raven, but then hardly anything does.

I can think of at least 5 coasters that measure up to Raven, exceeding Raven even. Two of them being the above named Viper and Raging Bull. The Legend on the other is currently untouchable...
On topic, I've not ridden V2, but have ridden S:UE. S:UE is starting to grow on me more and more, but RB is still my favorite steel coaster. I expect to like V2 very much, but still not as much as RB.

Im also a huge bull fan ridden it over 300 times. right now the only exciting part is the drop,where V2 is new and more exciting so i will have 2 say V2

Bull gets kinga boaring after 300 times!!!!
I was dead serious about viper. In my mind, nothing else in that park comes close to it.

Maybe that's the problem. You should try riding the coasters in real life, instead of just your mind.
(chill out...I'm just kidding) ;)
I still like Raging Bull best.
Viper is great, no doubt about it.
Is it just me, or does it seem to be riding slower this year ?
I can't say what's 2nd, as I've only ridden V2 once. Probably Viper...you can't beat the Raging Bull/Viper/Giant Drop combo, and Deja Vu is just barely outside of the Southwest Territory, so it's only going to get better !

V2 I dunno what it is but it is just way better!
I thought the same thing about Viper riding slower this year. I thought it whipped more around the turns last year, especially at night. Maybe the newer, faster, CCI coasters like The Boss and Legend have raised the bar on what I expect in a lateral. It's still a great ride that gives excellent air time in the front car.
