Oviosly top thrill dragster, stealth is no where near as good, if anything it should be accelerator which is better.

Stealth, because its only 10 miles away (not 3000) and it cost me nothing to go ride it, and its fun, and has fater acceleration than TTD.

TTD, obviously.
But, um, why did you choose TTD over KK for the poll? Surely if you're going to do an obvious comparison no contest poll, KK resembles Stealth much more.

Top Thrill Dragster, but I've heard Stealth is near as good. I just think that the faster the launch, the better, and TTD does 0-120 in a pretty decent amount of time. Not to mention the fact thst Stealth doesn't really make you feel like your face is being torn off (at least that's what I heard from someone).

It makes you feel your face is gonna fall off in the front seats! Thats a fact!

I think like 3 people on here have taken the ride on both, so this poll isn't exactly the best ever. I know Ian prefers Stealth... I think... lol.
But, if I had a choice to pick one or the other, without any biased at all, the coaster enthusiast in me would pick the bigger + faster one, hence TTD.

I haven't ridden either yet, so I'm going to vote for the logical winner - TTD, even though some people who have ridden both say stealth is better. I just can't get my head around the idea of the smaller version being better, but i guess you'd have to ride both to make an accurate judgement.

Stealth's launch is more intense in terms of acceleration. How does it feel on TTD? I have no idea. My fave is TTD due to sheer of height and speed but I'm not going to vote because I rode only Stealth.

Lap bars or OTT restraints?
Original or smaller different clone?
Faster or slower?
400+ ft, or 200+ ft?
All these questions, and as much as I like stealth, and the acceleration is quicker than TTD, I' travel the 3000 miles to Cedar point, and queue the 3+ hours to ride such a unique coaster as TTD is.

Of course TTD is going to win.
But the thing you guys must realize is that acceleration isn't everything to a launch, and that what speed you end up at also is a very dynamic factor.
Also, if you want to break it down into acceleration factors, you actually have a lot greater sense of acceleration on TTD as opposed to Stealth.
Granted, within the first second you are going about 1.8 mph faster on Stealth, but within the matter of the next second (2 seconds total), you'll be going 60 mph on TTD, a lot faster than on Stealth where you'd be going 39.75 mph.
