The best seat on a coaster, then, is a matter of personal taste. If you love the feeling of weightlessness, head for the back. If you want the best view of the action, head for the front. The cars in the middle provide the weakest ride, but it's a good bet you'll still have a good time.
BTMRR is much bigger then Space Mountain. And if all were equal (darkness vs. light) BTMRR would be considered much more of a thrill ride. Being completley dark, you can't really gauge the next twist, turn or drop.

One of the best Magic Kingdom rides! Big Thunder Mountain is one of the most underrated WDW rides! The wait can get kind of long on busy days but if you time it right, you won't wait more than 30-40 minutes.
