Yes a scary coaster would be TTD or KK  just due to the shear speed and height and drop.
this is just one mans opinion and not a good one

Quick question about El Toro and The Voyage; Which coaster has more airtime? better airtime?

The Voyage has a World record airtime of I think 24.2 seconds

El Toro has probably less then half of that
but El Toro has a lot of Extreme Ejector airtime probably the most on any coaster.

Overall The Voyage is a more Compete ride

Just ask Chuck  he Loves El Toro (as we all do) and it took him 50+ times on The Voyage to make it his #1 over El Toro.

it is also my #1 coaster ( The Voyage )   a night ride is a must

El Toro has better air IMO but the overall ride on the Voyage seals the deal for me!

I had the same idea about the amount of ejector airtime El Toro has. I can definately trust both of your answers, pcman and Chuck, because after so many rides on both coasters, I know you are not being biased.

for the front row, for over 3 hours.

really? I've waited only 20 minutes for the last row and my friends only 25-30 minutes for the front... we have been very lucky ;D we have ridden ET 5 or 6 times in 2 days, and wait times are always the same  ;)

however, I don't ride the voyage yet (and I don't know when I'll ride it  :( i live too far!!) but I think that ET is the best roller coaster in the world, so I prefer ET  :) ::) ;)

Well, what happened was, it was about 3 weeks after El Toro opened to the public, and there was only one train running. On top of that, there was a big concert that night, which really brought the crowds in. Those are my guesses as to why I waited three hours for the front row on El Toro.

You should have went to the back row.

When I was at Great Adventure about 2 or 3 weeks ago, I sat in the last row on El Toro. The airtime, especially on the first drop and Rolling Thunder crossover, is undescribable.
