  1. gone of the days when this ride used to always have 60minute queue now its barley 10 I feel ever since the Rodeo left the ride has been limping on one foot!
  2. IDIOT!!!! we needed those gates

    It needs to go but at the same time if chessington said they were going to remove it I wouldent want it to go much like the corkscrew at alton.I thought those models looked familiar

    I think its time is in the next 10 years in my eyes though unfortunatly going on the corckscrew years! I would to like to see it re vamped to a more 'vampire' theme. hay at least they have put some models in the queue lines of vampires. hay ho thats what you get when you have 5 minutes to come up with something to ease the hard work of queueing

    yes definittly I dont want to see it go but I would like to see it have a crash course make over.
  6. No what I meant not as big as they used to be I remeber when all throughout summer the queue for it would be a constant 2-3hours now its only sometimes makes 2

    It needs to go now I know lots of us think it but I bet when they do get rid of it eventually it will be sadly missed like the corckscrew at alton. Its still a great coaster at the front but no where else in my opinion!
  8. They load this so much slower than it needs to be!
  9. Shame its on a boring setting and I used to like it when both ramses and Samurai where there because they used to compliment each other nicely!
  10. why does this not have an end seat queue because it always causes backlog in the actual queue for people waiting for the ends plus why did they get rid of the loading bays which once stood there?
  11. I feel the theming is now to dated on dragon falls and its just not as popular as it used to be!when they had the bigger queue.I do feel the whole Mystic east need some TLC mind you chessington have concentrated so much on the zoo for the past 3-4 years they almost forgot they had a theme park to look after but at the least the water squrting elephant is working again!
  12. Thorpe park should have early ride time plus they need to open the gates (turnstiles) about 30mins before the park opens and hold everyone in the dome this one because it will reduce the backlog out side the park and 2 it gives people the chance to already start buying much like alton towers do with the towers street!
  13. Nemesis yes but Colossus no. the power of 10 has or seems to have a bigger pull than the 80mph speek machine. I think its because when people think rollercoaster they think scenic railway or a looping star! so the more loops the more popular! Nemesis will always be a 'what' ride because unlike the amazing alton towers nemi it has no substance to the ride to keep it lasting
  14. Alton has the experince I think is the best way to put Alton e.g Disney style where as Thorpe is just blackpool pleasure beach!
  15. Its due to sonic being at the entrance so people go there first thing and last thing and because its so slow loading by the time the queue is getting to a reasonable time its the end of the day rush! Plus chssington has 2 entrances/exits where as alton only has 1 for 22 thousand people on an average day!

    I meant its the thought because many first time riders cant tell weather they left the track or dropped and that is the worst fear.read between the line mate my explanation is terrible in typing
  17. as long as they keep the queue like it is at the moment for the asylum at fright nights I'm all for any ride that is put in I kept thinking you could have a ride like G-force at drayton manor because the x car can almost do any turn in a small area what do you think?
  18. I mean stealth is almost becoming the 'what?' ride after 4 years its almost unknown to non ride enthusists and needs to be brought to the publics attention again that there is this beast of a ride at thorpe come ride it but they are still hammering saw its time for stealths time to shine once again!
  19. Its only viable if you live within about 30-45 minutes away if your further than that you will waste that money in petrol getting there!
  20. yeah but the problem with nemesis it that there were many other places it used to bellow out smoke from, but no longer work.
  21. I have only been on stealth 60 times so I'm pretty poor to state my feelings on it but it is a great coaster for the whole park but stealth does need to be re-advertised because I have noticed people are forgeting what stealth it!

    This used to be so much better at chessington because they now always have it on a slow setting or most of the time when its busy and the queue for this is agonising and fastrack should not be aloud on this ride the queue can be substained with added fastrack
  23. X technology center have found a new virus and have cornered of the area.
  24. I have a soft spot for the Slammer music when its raising to the top. Plus I love the males voice 'before boarding etc'Vortex has great theme music when the ride is in motion you really know you are riding with that music.The worst music at the moment is detonator because at the moment they have the music just on bells going off in the background!
  25. Time voyagers will probably last another 2 years at tops before thorpe get rid of it all together because it only really appeals to the younger audience I feel plus much like honey I shrunk the audience you can tell the technology is very dated and there is great potential for something new in there. also why dont they use that courtyard out side the building to hold guests e.g a queue?
