Züge: 6 trains with 5 cars per train. Riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows for a total of 20 riders per train.
 

The front car only seats two riders so there are 18 riders per train, not 20.

When the Top Thrill Dragster first opened, the rear cars only had two seats because the last row was occupied by a theme engine, tires and fin. These were later removed and the rear car now holds four passengers.
