Frommer's Review
Maniacal minds created this thrill ride -- sending two roller coasters right at each other at high speeds. True coaster crazies will love the intertwined set of leg-dangling racers that climb to 125 feet, invert five times, and three times come within 12 inches of each other as the two dragons battle, and you prove your bravery by tagging along. This coaster sports a tighter track with quick banking turns and sharp twists, making the ride somewhat jerky -- far from the smooth and fluid experience of the Hulk. But the roughness may be part of its charm -- a couple of thrill junkies (after riding this one for the third time in a day) revealed to us that this is where they head when they want the city's ultimate adrenaline rush. For the best ride, try to get one of the two outside seats in each of the eight rows. If you want to get into the front seat (for that extra jolt), there's a special (yes, longer!) line near the loading dock so that daredevils can claim the first car. Note: Expectant mothers or those with heart, neck, or back problems shouldn't ride. (Why aren't you surprised?) Riders must be at least 54 inches tall.
Coaster Tidbit -- One Dueling Dragon coaster seems to have an obvious advantage over the other. The Fire Dragon can reach speeds as high as 60 mph, while the Ice Dragon tops out at only 55 mph.
