  1. Welcome to TPM, just cos you don't like the place that much you aren't gonna become the victim of our anger and hate! Have fun

    I'm sure Stealth would be able to launch at 100mph, theres a video of Xcelerator lauching at 100mph during its testing so Stealth must be able to?

    Tim, the closure was going to be so they could sort out the issue with the blocks, not to put the actual cars on
  4. James replied to Ash's topic in General Discussion
    It's back up to 8 cars now so I presume the closure won't be happening!
  5. 4 can go round at a time, one at the Jigsaw preshow, one at the syringes inside, one on the lift and one on the MCBR and then the 4 in the station.

    Yeah he was lying, managers are hardly going to give out information to ride staff that they don't need to know, and probably hasn't even been decided at all yet.
  7. Pretty decent for 2 hours! What was the normal Saw queue like Mr X?
  8. Sometimes they open the gates about 15 mins before the park opens and then open the rides at 9.30. I expect its to stop a huge crowd building up at the park entrance.
  9. ...but you said you left last week?
  10. James replied to Ash's topic in General Discussion
    I don't mean to sound rude, but why post stuff that you've purposely exaggerated to make someone that you're trying to prove a point against sound more guilty, when you know half of what you're sprouting is pants.
  11. James replied to Ash's topic in General Discussion
    Thats because Thorpe has stupid problems that the other parks don't have. Fact SAW isn't amazing, its a ride thats packed full of missed opportunitys. Seriously, when Rush is down, it's not to try and sort out the sync problem, its been like this for 3 years now. Can you defend Thorpe Park in saying they're putting in lots of effort to get it corrected? No, otherwise they would have sorted it in 2005 and it wouldn't happen since. Thats possibly Thorpes fault, for all we know the person operating the digger may not have not the cable was there because Thorpe didn't tell them.
  12. That sign went ages ago. You could be correct but are you 100% sure you counted 8 different cars, seeing as they all look identical and it would require work on the MCBR before they could attempt to put on 8 cars again.
  13. Any confirmation of it being on 8 cars?

    I understand where people are coming from and whilst I hate football, I am entitled to my opinion so I'm gonna make it whether you think its valid or not. It really is just a game at the end of the day and fair enough if you're interested in it and show support for your team, fine, thats great, but threatening to take someones life away from them because they made some decisions which affected a FOOTBALL match... they need to sort their priorities out and get a ****ing grip in life. Football is there as entertainment and a hobby, not a fight to the death.
  15. James replied to Dan_Rush's topic in General Discussion
    Ohh gotcha. Nah the Yorkie stuff is gonna be around for a while.
  16. James replied to Dan_Rush's topic in General Discussion
    Numbers starting with 1 2 3 4?None of that post made sense
  17. James replied to zkk's topic in Stuff
    That is the most pathetic thing I've read in my entire life, bar nothing. I have zero sympathy.
  18. James replied to humjosh's topic in General Discussion
    Probably never ...this is Thorpe Park afterall, not Alton
  19. The second car gets a preshow from Jigsaw in which he comes out on his bike and talks to you, the first car does not. That is the only difference.
  20. Chris Member on here too
  21. James replied to humjosh's topic in General Discussion
    Yes, they're 402's, 802's and 32SE's.

    I believe the answer is no and the only way to is by creating a new account.
  23. James replied to Phill's topic in Nonsense
    Someone had their ear sliced off on Thunder River once (out of their own stupidity).Some boy broke both his legs after standing up on X:/NWO in the 90's and the train moving while he stood up.A Zodiac pod broke off the structure during the ride once (breaking a teenagers arm).Slammer regularly getting stuck, Rush dropped a part off the top.Runaway Mine Train at Alton crashed in 2007 (the train seperated on the helix near the tunnel causing a fair amount of injuries. Various other minor incidents.
  24. James replied to Sheepie's topic in UK Attractions
    I don't believe a word of that until I see sign of it happening or a confirmed source :PI'm sorry but I could just say to you, Thorpe are replacing Zodiac with a similar round ride manufactured by Huss this closed season, I don't know how I know, but I do! Cos that is exactly what Shaun has done.
  25. I love how everytime we try to have a praise topic for Thorpe it quickly turns into a slating Thorpe topic. Says it all
