It looks exactly like the Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point, which opened last year, and was, or perhaps still is, (i'm not sure) the tallest rollercoaster.  Kind of a cheap rip off if you ask me.  But, well, it *is* closer to me, so I'll probably end up riding it sometime, if only at least to say I rode the tallest/fastest rollercoaster.  Though it would be nice if the lines were not a million people long like they are at Cedar Point... I had to wait 3 hrs to ride the Top Thrill dragster.

i didnt end up going to six flags very often actually, but enough to get value out of the pass.  i went like four times to the six flags in massachusetts, and then once to six flags in new orleans, which stinks, badly, so if you are ever there, dont go.
