SAW: The Ride
Oh my bad I was in SRQ all the time so I wouldn't know, the cars went much quciker with 8 on the track! Quite jerky but fun.
-
SAW: The Ride
Well it said 40-60, but you could tell when you were on Samurai and looking at que it was longer... but even 40 mins, 8 times going on for 5-15 is better.

SAW: The Ride
No sorry we didn't ask them to wait for 2 to come along, I just making point people could do that, on all the 3 times we went on it we were never on same carridge.
-
SAW: The Ride
Well we only did it 3 times, but most of the others were doing it aswell. I did 8 times, so I was actually on my own in it for 5 of the times. Tbh I thought the main idea of SRQ was for those who were on there own or groups that did not mind splitting up. And that was a could not that I would ask for both of us to go on at same time.
-
SAW: The Ride
No not at all but the person I with was only in the next train behind. I just prefer that method that saves me time. Plus, no more usually then 2 of us go so we could ask to wait in SRQ till they needed a 2.

SAW: The Ride
You are right it is much quicker! About 5-15 mins each time. Poor souls who choose to que 2 hours when they could get on quick. There were two actors, one was in the trap by the gate where the operator stands and counts people through. He was jumping all about in it trying to escape. Then there was a woman in a cape with a red mask thing on, well her face was ALL red at least. She was walking up and down the single rider que scared me to bits! But one girl who had been queing supposively all the time in the Main que got up the stairs, saw the woman in the cape, screamed and RAN out of the building! What a waste of time .

SAW: The Ride
Yep your right, it happened at about 5:20 when I turned up to do my last ride, I stayed around till 5:55. Security team were sending everyone back to Samurai area, it was stunning the amount of people who were taking pictures and films in that area! Loads. I heard rumours of a panic attack for they thought they would have to get out, but that just what one person said in crowd. However the car on the lift hill was not evacuated! They went on a lift and it ran through the track to the station.

SAW: The Ride

-
SAW: The Ride
Ah kk because I went a couple of weeks ago on Saturday and in 20 mins 1 person from SRQ got on. It was taking ages.
-
SAW: The Ride
what will SRQ be like tomorrow? How long exaclty in the afternoon?
-
SAW: The Ride
We did but they said we couldn't due to the way the numbers had been counted. Alfonso was doing it in 4s and unlucky we were sent to back row, and then we asked about sitting at the front and they said we couldn't.
-
SAW: The Ride
Oh yeah definately! When went on it first time didn't expect that first drop at all! And whole experience soooo good, but was annoyed because they made us sit at back, front would of been great!

Closed Rides
Must say I completely agree with Mark, although I love Thorpe Park. Their rides are very unreliable, but since I don't go all the time it not that bad for me for mostly all rides open when I go, BUT- Loads shut down throughout day! Saturday before Bank holiday, Saw, Colossus, Stealth, Rush and some more all broke down, with Colossus stopping on hill for more then 20 mins more than twice. But like I say, like Thorpe a lot and mostly lucky when I go, but respect your opinion/s 100%
-
Colossus
One bit I find weird is when you turn round the corner before the corkscrews and it feels like your going to hit that brown pole lol
-
SAW: The Ride
That a very good point! And you said running up hill as bit faster.... I don't know, as long as it is on 8 on Sunday that would be good
-
SAW: The Ride
Stealth works there. I not sure , will find out when go in couple of days, but I guess it can't be if worker there says it not.
-
SAW: The Ride
Where abouts is Billy on the bike? Is it the bit were you first leave station into dark and there like dummy on side or is it where countdown is? Cos if you sit on backrow I couldnt see much
-
Colossus
Hope it open this weekend. And I love the noise it does over the chain, the sort of Kayoko Grudge noise
-
Rush
Defo A is higher. I didn't really see difference until 2 weeks ago really, and luckily I been on the A side everytime with high swing. Also A takes longer to slow down then B meaning A faster.

Slammer
Ohhhh right, it shows as closed on website

SAW: The Ride
People say SRQ is quicker.... but on the saturday before bank holiday weekend the SRQ was taking ages. In 20 minutes 1 person went through and there were like 11 people ahead. So 1 every 20 mins would be same as normal que... even longer. All depends on number of 3 and those SR in the actual que line, because they get priority.

Website shows it as unavailable for today.... I really sorry you didn't get to ride it
