Last time I was in the US I really binged on rollercoasters and similar rides. There's only one real rollercoaster in this entire country and it's OK, but not what I'd call alarming. It's only small, with one steep drop, one loop, and two corkscrews. The whole ride takes about 20 seconds. I loved a rollercoaster at Atlantic City where you go around normally the first time, then backwards the second time. Space Mountain at Disneyland was pretty good too. That was more than ten years ago, so I assume they've got even better and scarier since then.
