Rides today, in the United States, are not allowed to open if they have a G-Force higher than 5. Any higher and a person may experience injury. The ride that pulled the greatest g-force no longer exists. It was at Coney Island during the years that the loop was first being created. It was made as a perfect circle (and as we've found out doesn't work right) which causes the train to be pulled at a g-force scientists estimated at 12gs. Today a loop is not a perfect circle but a tear drop shape (thank Werner Stengel for that). But today the ride with the highest g-force doesn't exceed Tower of Terror's in South Africa, it has a g-force of 6.3.
Heres some rides with g-forces to give you an example of the numbers.
A Vekoma Boomerang: 5
Kingda Ka: 4
Dominator (Geauga Lake): 3.8

Well to be honest I am not sure what EXACTLY you´re asking but I do know that the roller coaster with the most consecutive hoops i.e ´in a row´ hoops is in Salou-Spain

Shiekra at Busch Gardens. G-force:a non-SI unit of acceleration defined as exactly 9.806 65 m/s², which is approximately equal to the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface. It is also a song by Sonic youth as well as a tasty fruit treat for kids.

yeah...I think it is Mindebender in the West Edmonton Mall, Calgary.
Taz's Texas Tornado has not existed for some time (Astroworld doesn't even exist anymore). It was moved to Six Flags Marineworld (now renamed Discovery Kingdom) and called Zonga...but it is now dismantled.

well im trully sure that is the dragster or dexter, dont really remmember so well, its locarted in cedar point. in ohio.
G force is the amount of blood coming out or in of ur head. in fighter jets u have to wear a g-suit, since u can pass out if u dont have one in a dogfight. this rollercoaster has been said that has the same power as if you were taking off of an aircraft carreir.
