Top 10 Fastest Roller Coasters in the UK

The UK now has some fantastic roller coasters, I was wondering which ones were the fastest, the guys at rollercoaster database have put together a list of the top ten fastest rides in the UK.

I would have expected Alton Towers to have had the fastest ride, but that honour goes to Stealth at Thorpe Park, Alton Towers does still manage two in the top 5 with Oblivion and Rita the queen of the speed.

    1. I have ridden the alton towers rides has anyone tried stealth at thorpe park

    2. I have ridden the Flamingo Land ones and would love to ride all of the rest as I am a fan of rollercoaters …. I think they are brilliant.

    3. I have been on most uk rollercoasters and still think shockwave at drayton manor, nemesis and oblivion at alton towers are some of the best in the country, for ones of a decent length of time its got to be the pepsi max at blackpool pleasure beach and the ultimate at lightwater valley for time spent on the ride. kumali at flamingoland is pretty good and I almost forgot infusion also at blackpool is worth a ride or two.

    4. i get aroused by roller coaster

    5. Pepsi Max Big one ride is amazing, a thrilling experience.
