    Yes it is they have completely redecked the place out so its "theme park classy". They are offering meats from local west wales produce and said it will be first and foremost quality welsh meat. But yeah I think playing to the local produce this is a great thing that they can use to their advantage, it would certainly improve their stakes where food quality is concerned!

    I'd hope so if they went to all that way to make it look really nice like that.

    I hate it when people have a god complex personality to them. They think they know everything and that they can just make you feel small all the time, there are some right idiots in college like this. Think that they are like a King... twits, utter hateful twits!!
  8. Well that guarantees a massive throughput then, I love the fact everything is so high throughput you never have to queue ages for anything <3

    Tbh knowing how quiet oakwood gets I don't think people will even bother using the thing on week days as it is literally so quiet you could walk on pretty much all the main attractions in 30 minutes, I think it will only be properly by the gp used on the holidays and big events. Tbh I don't like fast track but if it pays for them to improve parts of the park or rides then I'm OK with it. We will have to see if this properly catches on though but then again it must of been popular enough to warrent it implemented in the park.

    They trialed fasttrack last year at the after dark events last year and it went decently well it was available on speed, megafobia and hydro, and skull rock and it didn't really hinder the actual queue but yes Speed was on 3 trains so the queue ran quite quickly anyway haha

    Well I have heard from members from PBE when they were booking to do there trip they did mention that they had been looking into buying Knightmare but hadn't pushed any sort of deal through so fingers crossed that might be something that might be put into oakwood and Dean you forgot this! MMM me loves a grill!! Tasty!! If its major then I'm expecting a decent dark ride, flat ride or used coaster like Knightmare. Oakwood is making me very excited at the mo. They deserve the success they are getting because its along way ahead of what it used to be and all this investment is just peachy! EDIT: I love the fact they are calling the reserve and ride system after Bounce pretty apt name though

  14. It has sortof the same elements in the first half as outlaw the over bank turns and what not although the first is note like goliaths in the case that it goes fully over 180 degrees and stays there for a few seconds whereas outlaw goes about 170 degrees over and is literally just a quick flick. Plus the corkscrews look great!!
  15. Full stats Top speed: 113 km/h (70.2 MPH) Track length: 1,300 metres (4,266 feet) Height: 57 metres (187 feet) First drop: 49 metres (160 feet) with an 83 degree angle Inversions (travelling while upside down): 3 Air time moments (sensation of weightlessness): 12 times (4 with negative G) Ride duration: 120 seconds Capacity per hour: 960 people/hour Seats per train: 24 people Height restriction: 120 cm (47.2 in) Build by: Rocky Mountain Construction Designed by: Alan Schilke It going to be a biggy!! I think as pretty much none of us have been on an RMC I don't think we should just cast it away as a ride sure Goliath just looks pointless but Outlaw and this look fantastic with lots of potential hopefully this new type of woodie will come to the UK soon. Its probably the only way are going to get a woodie haha.

    Supposedly haha
  17. TRAIN TESTING!

    Oakwood have officially confirmed the smaller attractions like the Teacups and the play area, but they are keeping quiet on the summer edition although they are saying it will be epic (hmm...). Also this is what they said to another person. So we have a reason for the no updates on the developer page.
  19. This ride will be revealed tomorrow at 10am Stockholm Time or 9am British time. The most solid rumour going around is that it will be the first incarnation of the RMC/Vekoma woodie. If this is true or not find out at 9am at http://wildfire.kolmarden.com/countdown
  20. Hence why he said it would be typical that the one he wants to do most is only a few days from his 18th so he is annoyed he cant go because of it...
  21. if they think yoy looked young enough (like you looked under 18) then yes they would ID you so bare that in mind As for taxi I might be over or underestimating but I would hazard a guess at about £10-£20 I would guess but then I'm not 100% sure.
  22. EC! replied to th13teen's topic in UK Attractions
    Its because the track is either oxidizing or rusting. I'm just saying both because there was a discussion before hand because of this problem and I am just making both parties happy
  23. EC! replied to Artie's topic in The Past
    I was under the belief jack that it is opening later this moneth , fingers crossed thats the case.

    I love it looks like a really decent well themed eatery, love it!
  25. Probably for me was back in 2008 when my family went to DLP one off those days happened to be a peak day and to say the place was rammed was a little bit on an understatement, we where is the studios bit and because pretty much most of the rides has a crap capacity, I got on like 3 rides all day, my worst ride count to date, closely followed by only 4 rides at thorpe when my school went on the day where it seemed that every school in the bloody country came down, didn't help that the staff were terrible and I only managed to 4 because of fasttrack for 2(Swarm, Stealth). It was my first trip since going in 2009 when saw opened and I'm honestly surprised I wasn't put off Thorpe for life, but I went in august again that year in 2012 and it was amazing, got on everything, did all of the coasters 2 or 3 times, it was bliss and that saved thorpe for me and I wouldn't have stayed on this forum as long as I have if it wasn't for that trip so good on you thorpe, well 1 time atleast
