Whats everyone think of the Barnstormer?

[DisneyMarg]

I could swear that one time I heard that Barnstormer was the fastest ride in MK, any truth to this? And I am not including the monorail.

Maybe "fastest" meant "over in the shortest amount of time". Sounds like 20 seconds would qualify for that!

Used to be my favourite ride there

According to the Unofficial Guide, it says the total ride time is about 53 seconds, excluding brakes and lift hill...

I'm heading to Magic Kingdom on Dec 4th.. and I'm hoping it wont be too busy. Its a sunday and its only open until 6.. but I bought the Christmas Party ticket for that night too so I'm hoping to get a lot of attractions in that full day.

There are a few attractions that I never did before which I may try to get in that day.. like:

The Barnstormer.. lol.. this thing always looked fun.. but can adults enjoy this or is it just for kids?

You could not have picked a better time of year to go! We went on the 4th in 2003 and it was wonderful. The weather is awesome and crowds are minimal. Also keep a watchout for the taping of the Christmas Parade. They were filming it on our last day and we got to see Regis and Kelly.

It's a quick ride. But I'll remember it as my daughter's first Roller Coaster Ride

Darn! Last time we were there we waited in line about 20 min then the ride broke down....with people on it!
We knew it didn't look good when we saw workers climbing the track..... We'll try it next time, the kids really want to go on it.
(This was the trip when all the rides seem to break down while we were on or around them, hmmmmmm)

They used to go twice around the track, but now I think it's only once, so it is a very short ride.

When did they ever do this? We've been going on it since it openned and never ever seen this. It would have to shoot through the loading area to do that.

It's a tame, fun coaster...you should be okay.
