Top Thrill Dragster!

Holy Cow! Has anyone seen or ridden this roller coaster yet?
It is located in Cedar Point Ohio. The thing accellerates from 0-120 mph in 4 secs. then you climb up 420 feet and drop accellerating to 120 mph again. The ride isn't that long because you go so fast, but man what a rush it must be. The thing is the tallest roller coaster (currently) in the world. It uses a maglev system to ride on. It must kick out some serious G-forces.

I am constantly seeing reports on the news about that thing being broke down all the time. It has actually been down more than it has been working.

I heard another news report just last night that Cedar Point might have to leave it down the rest of this season due to the problems it has had.
