and yes it is correct, Maverick is 20th and Silver Star is 19th *waits for death threats*

I'm not fussed about Maverick being that low down considering the rest in your list... But Silver Star? Really?

Silver Star was terrible.

WAS being the optimum word!

Fortunately I haven't had the horror of experiencing that ride when the trims used to be on. And even those that had hated and abhored it before loved it when we went this summer.

In fact, everyone who's been on it this year has rated it very highly - mainly because it's amazing.

I even think Will bumped it up into his top 10 and was pleasantly surprised by how awesome it's become! :)

Yeah, here it is!

7. Silver Star

So... B&M... TAKE NOTICE!
 
And you're a whore

And I hate you. Forever :p .

Also, in the case of Silver Star, B&M hypers can be absolutely amazing without the trims on, but can be a completely different story when they're actually on. Exhibit A: Diamondback. Top ten coaster with barely any trims, barely top twenty with the trims. Behemoth has had the trims off pretty much every time I've been on it, so that's why I still rank it so highly.

t's good, but definitely not top 10 stuff.

Agree.

Another example is Raging Bull. The ride has a great layout and would be insane without trims, but they bite quite hard, killing the ride.

GET OUT!

And take your four minutes and forty-seven seconds of dread with you! :p

Is this how all new members are treated? :wink:

For the record I'm now having a German euro-rave in your honour. :twisted:

Hehehe aww herbinator, at least you had the guts to post it, I salute you =]

I think I've already posted mine? I don't think there are any new entries since SFGAdv earlier this year, it's in my sig for those that are that interested. I don't know it off by heart, all I know is El Toro is number one, hooray.
