Speed at 418 foot drop: 120 MPH

In the El Toro pic Max looks afraid but in reality at that moment she was talking to me before laughing like a hyena!
Before Monday we couldn't get her on more than a kiddie coaster. As Twitch said, her second coaster was Kingda Ka.....BTW, it's the tallest and fastest in North America and the second in the speed category worldwide! Formula Rossa in Abu Dhabi reaches 150 MPH.
Till the end of the day we all thought our legs were gonna fall off but it was well worth the effort!
