El Toro, hands down.  It's a high quality ride, and it never gets old.

It's my sentimental favorite.

Clementon's Jack Rabbit was my first wooden coaster but RT was the big wooden coaster located at the big park. The anticipation of waiting to ride until I was tall enough make it a big deal in my heart.

Nitro. I love it. It's a solid ride from start to finish with no dead spots, and it finishes with punch instead of crawling onto the brakes.

Rolling Thunder...a sentimental favorite of mine! :)

Although I adore El Toro and Nitro, Rolling Thunder is my favorite ride in the park, by far. 

I miss the Frisbee, too!

Just a name, paint scheme and theme change along with some show effects like fire, fog, music, lighting, etc.

Try to keep on topic guys.  There is another thread discussing the Medusa transformation :).

My two favorite coasters at Great Adventure are Nitro and El Toro. I think both rides are equally awesome and they both have the airtime that I love. For some reason though, I always go to El Toro first almost everytime I visit the park.

El Toro late in the day after it has had time to warm up is my favorite.
But I'll never pass it up in the morning as everyone else is queuing up for Kingda Ka.
When you hit that lift you just know it is going to be different.

I would have to say Nitro is my favorite! But Rolling Thunder is surely my favorite classic!

This is such a hard question for me to answer.  It is still a complete toss up between Nitro and Toro.  I have rode both hundreds of times and when I get off Toro, it is my favorite and then I ride Nitro and it is my favorite.

I really do love the launch of Kingda Ka. It never gets old and it was amazing to ride two years ago in the freezing temps and getting my back to back rollback. But El Toro is just a non stop ride.
