TOP THRILL DRAGSTER

Thrill Rating 5
Height Requirement: 52" - 78"

"Keep arms down, head back, and hold on!" They're the last words you hear before you're sent blasting down the launch track.

Top Thrill Dragster is a behemoth, standing 420 feet above the Cedar Point midways. It opened as the tallest and fastest coaster in the world back in 2003, and riders can't seem to get enough of this "Top Thrill."

Should you choose not to Race for the Sky, take a seat on the bleachers and watch as riders face their fears right before the breathtaking launch.
