Just curious as to what machine actually has the longest ramps.
I know White Water and Scared Stiff ramps are long but I dont think they have the longest.
Has to be a single ramp not a Plastic /Wireform ramp combo.

Weird question, but the answer may be Baywatch. Mike Chestnut was plating a set of Baywatch ramps and the big one wouldn't fit all the way in the, er, plating ... machine.
Quoted from jfh:Elvira?
That's what I was gonna say, it goes all the way out the back of the machine and then loops back down to the inlanes. Not many ramps have to be in two pieces to work.
Doesn't Hurricane have that one ramp that loops around the back of the machine, comes all the way down the left side, below the flippers and back partway up the right side? Granted it switches to wireform there but that's one big and long piece of plastic.

I was going to say Hurricane as well. Not sure if it's technically correct, but it's one helluva long ramp as far as I'm concerned. 
Quoted from Dbaum88:I thought that the CFTBL was the longest ramp in all of pinball?
This would have been my uneducated guess
Quoted from badpenny61:doesn't Nascar or one of the car theme pins have a ramp that runs below the flippers, a "lap around the pin"?
I thought about NASCAR on this question too. Nascar pin loop is not technically a ramp. The loop around the playfield is on the playfield. Also some old mechanical pinball machines on launching the ball. The ball has to loop around the playfield once, then roll into the playfield.
Quoted from Darcy:Nascar pin loop is not technically a ramp
Yea, I've never played one or seen one up close, just read somewhere about the lap loop.

Blackwater 100 goes from the back, left aside the cabinet, past the flippers over the apron, to the lockdown-bar to land on a flipper onthe apron..... very long ramp that is !!

doesn't Flintstones have some really long ramps?
at least if you consider the apron to be part of the ramp...
Wow so many different answers. This is developping into a cool thread. My choice was cftbl too. But if it goes round and round like leathal weapon it still counts as length right ?
I also think the flinstones has very long ramps on both sides......they are extremely long ramps ....

Just played Godzilla. Seemed that the ball took a good 4 count to go the whole way through, that green one on the right is huge.
