Interesting stuff:So lets say Stealth accelerates to 80mph in 1.75 seconds. An empty train weighs 10,000 kg and the weight of the average rider is 70 kg.A train carries 20 passengers, so the overall weight of the fully loaded train is (70X20)+10,000 Which equals 11,400 kg80mph = 1/45 miles/second = 35.7632m/sTherefore the distance travelled by the train in these first 1.75 seconds is 1/2(35.7632+0)1.75 Which equals 31m (ish).a=(v-u)/t So the Acceleration is (35.7632-0)/1.75 Which equals 20.4m/s (ish)Force=mass X acceleration, so F=11,400 X 20.4 Which equals 232971N A lot of force is required to launch Stealth!The work needed to be done to create this force = Force X Distance Therefore work done= 232971 X 31 Work=7290337JPower=Joules/seconds So the power is Work/time which equals 7290337/1.75 This equals 4165907W (ish)Estimating that each household contains 40 lightbulbs, the power it takes Stealth to launch could light around 3,500 houses.BAM.Two train operation, or saving the environment? Slightly.I SAY TWO TRAINS.

Hell yeah you will.Bring on the fun times.

Fright nights are always amazing. Reply to my text.

Actually, it's a hoot hoot aboard the Jumping Bean.

Didn't Thorpe famously once say they'd always run Stealth on two trains? Always always always. #addingtothefun

I was there.

I love you. (L)

I put it a lot of effort and came out with good results! Happy on the whole. #monthandahalflate

Me and Ellie are straight together.

I'm jealous of your lack of Colossus queueing. I queued at least 25 minutes today!

Mini meet mini meet.Won't be going to this meet.

At one point today Inferno had a queue through the whole pen, which would've be called a 20-25 minute queue had it been two trains.Justsayin'.But that was an abnormality as I had queued 20 minutes before seeing that.

My trip report of my 4 hours at Thorpe Park, Monday 4th October, 2010.I was on a school trip, but traffic was so bad we got there late and missed our lecture on Physics, luckily the park agreed to hand our teachers the materials so we could go through them in our lessons. This aggravated me as although I have an annual pass I had to pay for a ticket because of being given the lecture. We arrived at around 11 and headed straight for Nemesis Inferno. Although it was almost a walk on, one train operation all day made the queue move excruciatingly slowly. I was on the back row and although there was a one train operation I did enjoy my ride, walking off feeling fantastic. I then walked towards Stealth, again to my dismay it was also running one train, and a 5 minute queue for the front row took 10 minutes. This was by far the best ride of the day, despite the queue. I then headed towards X:/ No Way Out. I was told by a cast member that the lights would be on today and was extremely angry to find out she had lied to me, I had been lied to. Halfway during the ride the lights suddenly flicked on, but as I left I was told it had broken down, so I'm guessing they were emergency lighting rather than just X:/No Way The Lights Are On LOL. I left feeling angry and upset, so I stormed to Colossus where yet again only one train was operating, and so what could've been a 10 minute queue was a half hour queue. I was not happy about the attitude THORPE PARK: The Nation's Thrill Capital were showing today. I felt as if they didn't want me to have a good time and wanted to ruin my day, after all I had to leave at 3, so queueing unnecessarily was not an option. Ignoring Colossus I headed towards Saw - The Ride, this was a good experience for once as all effects were working and I was on car 2 so I even saw the pre-show. But they were infuriatingly slow at loading and checking bars. I was not impressed with the throughput at all. Loggers Leap had no queue and the ride was as it always is, although I didn't get wet enough. I missed out Rocky Express due to time concerns and headed straight for Burger King between Ranger County and Canada Creek. Outrageously there was one person taking orders and getting drinks and getting fries, and one in the kitchen. With a queue of 6 people this was not at all on, and to add to this the fries were cold and I was given a gram too much ice in my diet coke. Suprisingly I felt fine after eating such filthy food, and headed over to Slammer. To my disgust it was closed, I was furious, 'they cannot close an attraction so early before the season ends just because of a low gate figure, how dare they?' I said. I then walked to Lost City where I went on Colossus front row with a queue of about 20 minutes, the ride was mediocre. All the other rides in lost city were a walk on, and all mediocre. Didn't get a high spin on Vortex, was given swing B on Rush, it was awful. After then partaking in Depth Charge and Flying Fish I had to leave the park.Overall my day was below satisfactory and I wouldn't recommend Thorpe Park to a friend or Family Member.

Hi my name is Tom. I just joined today and I'm looking forward to meeting you all!lol jk I'm not a n00b.I love you all.

I talk, and complain about the length of the queue.

Bump times.I only remember the dreams where people die. :|

THIS MADE ME LAUGH LOL. http://thecoolzone.web.officelive.com/SIMS.aspxThe bubbleworks one especially.

How much are bounceback tickets currently?Because I'm aware there's a next-day bounceback and a rest of the season bounceback. I think. Yes? :|Either way, can someone please tell me the price of both these types of ticket?Thanks.Also, Mark9 is awesome. BYE.

I hate you all.I'm coming.No, in YOUR endo.

Is that for the fact I'm on TPM or the blunt obviousness and repeating of my post from yearssss ago? :lol:And I was only on because Outfit suggested I did so.

Despite what the poll says. :lol:Yeah Theme Park loving is kind of gay for some reason. :/ Usually when I'm around Thorpe, 75% of the people I'm with are gay or bi. Yay for them.

I'm gay.lololol.

Yesterday I definitely saw people in the Fastrack queue withFastrack tickets, I'm 100% sure.

It's only the homepage which is down, you can access the rest of the site from here etc.

James! Stealth audio is oldd now, give us some Saw really. x
