Yes yes, it is the tallest. From the ground to the point, it is the tallest. Six Flags Great America is owner of this double-decker and here is a tiny review.
A pretty good day shot of the ride. You can also see the reflecting pool in use. This is the first thing you see when you enter the entrance plaza...
Now Silver Star is not Europe’s fastest coaster, it is their 4th fastest. But you can say that it is the fastest in Europe that has a lift hill before it’s main course ride. You just nearly make a 79 mph drop into airtime hills and make your way through over one mile of track.

The Six Flags Tournament of Thrills has just recently ended. Le Monstre seemed to take over all the coasters it versed. From the beginning, Le Monstre would not have been suspected as the winner, only beating Comet at Great Escape by only 12%. As soon as Le Monstre won against El Toro, something was going on. It seemed as if...
