Yeahh I cant remember where I heard this from... but I think it had something to do with nemesis. It went "Every rollercoaster tells a story"Now how can you tell a story without any theming?I agree with cringle, you have to have theming! Even if its not that much, Say Colossus and Nemesis Inferno. Not much going on there... But its enough to make you look and get a feel of what the rollercoaster is about before you ride it, in a way "Letting yourself know what your in for".I mean take RCT3 *I know its not really in topic* You can build an amazing coaster, with an amazing structure of inversions and what not, but that ride is nothing without any sort of theming or story and it makes it boring.I think Air - alton towers *I know alot of people will disagree* is a prime example of this. It does nothing to make you feel like your flying.. apart from the position because I dont think any theming has backed it up!But thats just my opinion. But on the other hand marc your right. Stealth didnt really need much because of what it is! Theming wouldnt really have made a difference to Peoples views.You either look at it and go "WOW that looks fast and high, a great adrenaline pumping ride" Or "NOOO WAYY am I ever going on that thing". Which I guess is the case with some rides?But the little speedway theming, I think it just gave it that extra kick
