Acceleration is what scares you. The max velocity doesn't really matter because you don't feel constant velocity - you feel acceleration. And that's why the fun comes during the dips, climbs, loops, and corkscrews. The dragster only has a huge hill/dip so it's only attraction is the ability to go weightless. Other coasters with more 'features' entertain me a lot more.
