What's the fastest ride in the theme parks?

Is it Test Track, RnRC, or another one?

I'm sure there's someone more qualified than I am to answer, but I'm almost positive I've read it's Test Track...

I thought so as well. Although I certainly wouldn't say it's the most exciting. Plus it only goes like 60mph or something. It's like driving fast in your car...

I think the fastest ride in the parks is Test Track at 65mph, Rock N Roller runs it close at 58mph. Expedition Everest is aparently 60mph forward and 40mph reverse.

Summit Plummit at Blizzard Beach can also see riders hit 60mph but is it a ride?

The fastest ride in the 'World' is over twice the speed of Test Track. The Richard Petty Experience can hit 145mph.

There's a story about a cast member asking guests what ride they though was fastest and after a few minutes of guessing, he told them they were all wrong and that they were currently riding the fastest.... he was a bus driver.

I'm surprised to hear that Ex Everest goes at 60 mph forward! It doesn't seem that fast! Cool!

ToT's drop is at the speed of awesome biggrin

Looked it up though, and it's only 39mph at its fastest. Feels like 390mph though!

I'd never heard that one! That's IS awesome. Although I have to say that if I was a youngster that might just make me a little less impressed with the rides.
