How did i know this was comming........being that both coasters are from completely differnt species of coasters, same class but different species. Now being that top gun has been in the park for 5 years and BORG has been there only 2 days, personally, it takes me mroe than one ride to classify a coaster. I mean i enjoyed BORG and i enjoyed top gun, but if i wanted to soar over water and have that flying feeling i would choose BORG. Now, if i wanted that feel of being strapped to the bottom of a fighter jet and fly thru inversion over inversion then i would choose top gun. I feel that they compliment each other. Like peanut butter and jelly!!! um ummmmm

I really can't say because it is comparing two totaly different rides. I can say this tho, Borg is my favorite Flyer and Top Gun is my favorite Invert, expecially the way it rode Saturday and Sunday.

I sayed it once before borg blows top gun out of the water. I will never forget the loop on borg.

I love the feeling on the loop and other great inversions.

Yes, that loop is very tumultuous. I could feel the fluid around my brain rush to the back of my head, leaving the front completely dry.

Yea, the loop was awesome. I have never rode a flyer before and the loop was my favorite part. Not what i expected.

Do you wear your medical jacket to the park?

I am not sure what you mean by this comment. I did not go to school for so long and work my way up this far not to wear my medical jacket most places. Persons respect me a lot more when I wear it.

That's crazy. I would wear my medical jacket to a park. It would make people respect me a lot more. It might even get me front row on certain rides. You might want to seriously consider it.

Chad, even though that will work, you would be using your respectful job for the wrong and the most non- mannred thing that you can do as a doctor. ;)

I voted for Top Gun on this one. It's more intense.

I think the Borg is more fun, but TG is more intense (Intense is good). I voted for the Borg but If carowinds could only have one of the coasters, I would pick TG. It's a B&M and it is more reliable with a better hourly capacity. It will also likely be at the park longer than the Borg.

This in not final as of where I stand, I need to ride the Borg a few more times (20?) and then I will not feel as though riding it is a brand new exciting adventure and It will just be a fun thing to do. Once I feel the same way about the coasters, then I will make a final decision.

I'll make a new poll like this at the end of the season. I think the results will change drastically (The coasters will have just about the same number of votes).
