Raptor is one of those roller coasters that stands out in front of the crowd. Upon entry at Cedar point the first go to coaster (minus gatekeeper) is Raptor. And the reason why, well...I don't even need to say because this is a VERY impressive B&M inverted coaster from start to finish.
On my visit I rode it in the front. And my expectations for the coaster were not high because I knew this coaster was already gonna kick ass. And after my ride, I was very impressed. Raptor is 22 years old at the time of this post, and There are only a handful of B&M inverted coasters that are better than Raptor. This ride still kinda lives up to it's motto "Raptor rules the sky" until you've ridden Montu at Busch Gardens ;).
Overall, Very impressive, pretty intense, and never gets old.
