Closed Rides
I always go either front or back on stealth as they are the best experience.but I have been on a rollback-thrill chill 2008 when stealth kept rolling back.eventually they loaded some people-me and my mate and they got a roll back-so they shut it.But the rollback experience is the best.

SAW: The Ride
just before the inside drop there are the swinging blades-you drop below them and pull up just before the floor off spikes-the detail is brilliant
-
SAW: The Ride
saw gives you shock and adrenaline in the inside part yet the barrel role could be improved-but overall a great addition to thorpe

Closed Rides
slammer is brilliant and always has a quick que(bar fright night),and stealth is always great fun-I wouldnt wnat to miss either of them
-
Closed Rides
thats good because I am going tomorrow and maybe on friday/saturday
-
SAW: The Ride
the front is the best-you can see everything and you get the air in your face which makes it feel faster.the best part is not the 100 degree drop but the

SAW: The Ride
I went on the AP preview day and when I sat at the front it was extremley bumpy but now it feels so smooth and brilliant.though going on it 3 times neally everytime I go to thorpe does make it boring

Closed Rides
whats weird is that they are the 2 same rides that were broken for ages (since fright night?).maybe its something to do with stealths new launch cable and maybe slammer just needs fixing

SAW: The Ride
fastrack could be very useful now but with saw eating up all the ques wont the other rides que be quite short.
-
SAW: The Ride
how long is that que?
-
SAW: The Ride
it makes no difference to now because of the silly single rider que-the fastrack will be a quicker que but with groups of people.And buisness wise thorpe would make alot of money.offtopic:who rekons the xcelorator fastrack should be brought back
-
SAW: The Ride
Thorpe are loosing alot of buisness by not selling Saw fastrack,because the ques are so long-everyone would want to get one.And by the way the burger king advert is tacky and cheesy and not needed
-
Stealth
when were theese put up?.Because I went on april 1st(april fools day) and none of the sponserships were there.off topic:if you ever go on april fools day do expect pranks eg the detonator dropping before or late after the timer ends

Shutdowns
luckily for me ive only be stuck on a ride once.It was nemesis inferno during the ultimate thrill chill 2008,we were sitting on the back row and it stopped as it was leaving the station so the front 2 rows were just outside the station and then to make it worse it started to snow,how fun-this delay was about 10 minutes long,we got our ride but then it was shut due to the cold weather.There was no compensation and I was not expecting any and because of the snow the ride actually went faster.Has anyone else been on the same sort of incident?

Jobs at Thorpe Park
cheap thorpe park but eventually if you get a high position eg manager or ride operator then there must be a rise??
-

-
Thorpe Park Merchandise
there is a whole massive pot of syringe pens-they are great.But does anyone notice there is alot of saw merchandise instead of saw the ride merchandise?

Jobs at Thorpe Park

SAW: The Ride
I was with you and it was brilliant-we got on the second ride of slammer in the year,stealth was testing which is good news and generally the park was great
-
Closed Rides
it tested like about 10-15 times today with and without dummies so there is a big chance it will open in the week
-
SAW: The Ride
the front is better because you can see everything and it is more intense while the back gives you a suprise and you cant see but is not as rough and is slightly boring-I would suggest the front(by the way does anyone know why the inside saws wernt swinging today)
-
10 years time?
no I'm saying add a top spin and make samurai canada creek themed not saw themed
-
10 years time?
I know people say there are already ones at cwoa and alton but a flat like top spin and another detonator tower in the saw area-making it horror town or something would be good-if they could make a family ride island somewhere and move octopus gardens etc there it makes more space for thrill rides in the main park.there are so many possibilities
