Just thought i'd do this, and I might do it every year if it turns out successful :)!
I've just added a few major roller coasters all around the UK from various theme parks - so vote now! :D
NOTE: This is for ROLLER COASTERS ONLY, not rides (Roller coasters meaning those, being fairly large, and on a track)!

There's only two that I've been on and that's Megaphobia and Speed in Oakwood so from my rather limited experience of rollercoasters, I'll have to go with Speed and I know that isn't anyway near other rollercoasters.

I queued for Rita when I went AT yesterday and was really excited because all the other times I had gone, the queue had been too big.
It was a bit disappointing. It was fast yeah but not brilliant.
I love Ripsaw... it's so like nervy.

I've always thought Nemesis has the edge over Air, it's faster, scarier, there's better loops and inversions etc.

Airs not that good in my opinion just for the novelty of lieing down, Nemesis is much better in comparison.
Nothing beats Stealth tho.

Nemisis, air of stealth. Nemisis is probs still my fave - but both air and stealth are great rides :p

Rita/Oblivion are both a bit of a let down - Stealth at Thorpe park is way better, speed combined with the huge vertical up and down is a great mix :)
air is, but tbh, its always broken lol

TBH I really don't like rollercosters. A bit a waste of time really.

So, what you're saying is, spending time on a forum is a good way to spend your time, but spending it on roller coasters isn't? :S

The oblivion thing may be down to a 6 hour que as i went on it when it was brand new - the 30 seconds of ride just didnt make it worth it lol

I've had friends go to Alton Towers and go on it 6 times.
I went on Space Mountain 10 times at Disneyland Paris and that was an awesome day.

Wow, who -repped me for saying theres no poll? I was stating the fact, I didn't realise it takes it a while to post, I thought he made a mistake. So in actual fact, I wasn't trying to be funny..
Back on topic, does anybody like Nemesis at Thorpe Park? I think its rubbish tbh, lasts like 30 seconds and isn't that great of a rollercoaster.. Collusus is also a guarenteed headache for me :(

These never work because most people have only been to one of the theme parks as opposed to all of them making the results ********.
Btw Megaphobia should be on there, and Dragon's Fury should be there instead of Spinball Whizzer.
@above N:I at Thorpe Park is longer than Nemesis :S
