Have to recommend getting a car if you're going to the park as getting food and stuff in Sandusky is a bit hard as everything is very spread out, as it is in America. Parking at the park is not cheap though so as others have mentioned if there is a cheap taxi or über that could be better than getting a car. Public transport in the Midwest just sucks in general though. You can get between cities easily enough but getting around within them is almost impossible without a car. So if you're not eating at the park über eats could be the best option. Can't say what the queues are like in peak summer but on the drizzly and freezing cold October night I went the queue for Valravn was 100 minutes and we had to wait 70 for Maverick. So they will draw huge crowds regardless. Thankfully people cleared out a bit later and queues were way shorter closer to midnight. Definitely head to the back corner for Maverick and Steel Vengeance first though. As a side note, if you haven't considered it already, Kings Island is a couple of hours away and also has a very good lineup including The Beast. Definitely worth checking out.
