    You will still be scared on the 3rd brake trust me Therefore I'm not sitting next to you on it next week =)
  5. Stealth's a bit of a bugger with two trains on the ride computers and shizz One train isn't that bad though, its not like Colossus where you have to wait 90 seconds longer to get on the train, only like 20.

    Lool. Its not really dark anymore though cos the lights from the robots light up the whole pyramid and they stay on for much longer than they should. The audio is very funky as its now got brake run audio with some relevance rather than a siren =)
  10. Rumba was running a very limited amount of boats on Saturday so I would imagine that its now having the rest of the boats added and tested before it will reopen.Rush and Slammer seemed to be getting special attention on Saturday as well so will hopefully open soon. Detonator I hope will be open for the TPM meet up on 24th, looks as if they only have to reconnect the cables and get its tests done but it may need more stuff done I'm not sure.

    The robots aren't really scary! They don't move, they're lit up blue and red and are on big poles on the brake run fence. They were originally located in the old queueline which is now Hellgate, pictured here.
