Project LC

Even on very busy days you wont need a fast track. Get there for opening and stay there until closing and you can get everything done. Head to Colossus first and work your way round until your at swarm and you will have all coasters done by midday without any fast track.

hard to say, it should be quiet but a lot of schools may be on study leave and doing school trips as by then all exams have finished.

Ok then formula rossa. Also the Ohio average summer is about 85 degrees which is roughly 30 degrees Celsius. As that's an average its going to get hotter than that unlike the UK's average of 20 degrees Celsius.

My Thorpe park would see X removed along with loggers leap, slammer, rumba rapids and of course storm surge. Where X once was I would change into a proper dark ride for family. In the place of loggers leap I would have an intamin blitz along with a wooden coaster running along behind burger king with a turning point around the intamin blitz. Where the rumba rapids was I would open up so there ease of acess to the island behind stealth and have a mack mega. light and to compensate for the lack of a water ride I would add some sort of log flume near stealth.

Coasters are planned in advanced by a few years. It is likely that a manufacture has been chosen but depending on how far they are with the manufacture it could change. If it was 2 years to then I would imagine the manufacture is locked in however if the ride is delayed until 2017 there is still room to change manufacture but it would be too late to change the entire ride.

When I said it was operating in manual mode I assumed it was obvious that the launch wasn't manual. As for the cold how come stealth was operating last march because it was definitely running with 2 trains with normal intervals. Was something else the cause for that like a ride team were taking a few risks? The heat thing I was unaware of but raises questions in who designed a thing that a British summer can stop its operation. TTD can operate in far hotter conditions, oh well typical British roller coaster being inferior to its american counter parts.

Stealth operates fine in the cold, I've been there at -2 degrees in the snow and it was working fine (admittedly nothing else was). The heat it can struggle with as the hydraulic fluid is less dense but it very rarely gets that hot. Kingda ka and TTD will operate in temperatures way above 23 degrees. Most likely the problem with slow loading was new staff which are being trained for summer and therefore may have been running on manual mode. The problem with stealth last year around June was that one of the injectors on one of the cylinders was faulty so the ride couldn't recharge in time.

An intamin blitz like maverick would be an amazing investment. It covers all of the stuff that Thorpe is lacking and can stay relatively low so the locals don't complain. Correct me if I'm wrong but I do believe that it would be the Uks first multiple launch coaster.

Rita would have been on one train because of a fault with either the train or the launch system. If the launch system cant return in time then its easier and safer to run one train. That was the reason stealth was on one train operation for about 3 weeks last year so I imagine it was a similar case.

I am aware there not the most reliable source, hence why I said I got it from there.

I don't see the life of slammer being to long and I would say a maximum of 5 years. By 2025 all of the coaster space will be gone so large rides will start leaving around then. Vortex needs some work as that is coming to the end of its life. But I doubt we will say many rides leave before 2018.

Apparently slammer is ready to open. Only problem is that there is no evac producers so there reluctant to open it. (according to towertimes anyway)

Another point is I'm quite sure there is already a ride in Japan which does almost exactly what you have described.

Why not make it out of steel. Track is steel, most of the supports are steel. I hardly see how this is a hybrid when most of it is not wood. But to call it a wooden coaster is just dam right lying.

The advert as a whole is much more cleaner and well rounded compared to their previous ones and its also nice to see that they have extended stealth to 500ft in the last week.

Not at all, I dont get the point in them either. There just a steel coaster with some wood around the supports.

That is by far the worst looking ride I have ever laid my eyes on.

I think that you may have misunderstood my argument. What I'm trying to say is that everyone should be treated the same. Some people would have got in for free and others paying full price but none the less the ride is still closed because of some want to be celebrities want to record on it. As a consequence of this some people will be going away with a less of an experience to what a ticket for the same price on another day would hold. Yes you can say that there is many other rides on offer but if you were going and looking forward to stealth then you have been denied access to it because of some stupid TV show.

I guess they are all pretty slow. I would say there boring, but they aren't the best.

Even if it is in the terms and conditions closing it for a tv show shouldn't be done. They can film before the park opens or after it closes. Some people in that park would have paid full price and be their only visit of the year. I have an annual pass but I still have to spend an hour and a half getting there and if I were to find stealth closed I would be very annoyed if the reason was some wanna be celebrities. I don't mind if its closed because of a fault but for some tv show is not morally right at all when there effectively mugging people to get in and forcing people to buy fast tracks because they sell close to 4 million a day.

That must have been a strong wind. I cant think where it goes slow enough it could valley.

It is highly likely it will be the site for the next coaster. At a school thing there they did show us some plans for that island but they were old for a concept of the swarm. I have a feeling that's what toofpikk is on about.

I do believe that, that is taken care of in the programming so that the spinning motor aligns the arms in the correct place. The sensors are to tell the gap between the floor.

There is some sensors on the hub of the arms which detect how close to the ground they are.

Many things could cause the power imbalance. Likely cause is that the pressure tank isn't reaching the correct pressure. The smoke would be a pressure release as the pressure tanks will contain cold air. As that isn't needed to be done regularly it would happen on rare occasion.
