  1. The bits between the inversions look rather long and dare I say boring. I'd prefer tighter turns or small bunny hops instead of those straight sections. Also, don't those inline twists look forceless? They are so slow.
  2. I've just found the great revere train wreck in America and it happened in 1871...
  3. I'd like a relatively positive theme for once. As John Wardley would say, a hero rather than a villain.
  4. Dive into a great white's mouth. Splashdown in a pool of hammerheads. Zero-g roll over a whale shark. I can really see a shark dive coaster coming to Thorpe Park.
  5. ^ And therefore it should be only goons who win the prize.
  6. ^They were already £168,000 in debt.
  7. Didn't the entry date close on the 30th of January?
  8. Noooooo! toofpikk. It's the end of an era...
  9. Miles and I had a loooong conversation on Instagram about a shark themed dive coaster!
  10. ^ Shall we just call you Matt then?!

    I play mandolin and guitar. I was fortunate enough to travel to Lake Garda with my school's mandolin band. We were staying 1k away from Gardaland and the temptation to go there was overwhelming.
  12. 1. Why does stealth have minimal supports when ka, TTD, Xcelerator and this all have large frames? Height is a likely reason but I still don't know why Xcelerator has different supports to Stealth. 2. Does this coaster have a name or is just known as Ferrari land coaster? 3. Is it taller than TTD AT CP?
  13. Thorpe Park posted this on Instagram... Some girl commented... I don't think I've laughed this hard for years!
  14. ^Yep. But neither John or Nick quite remember who actually thought of the name...
  15. Yeah. Looks like a great park. If six flags is Thorpe Park then Busch Gardens is Alton Towers. It certainly isn't a concrete island swarming with chavs. The similarities between this and Towers are plain to see: Both have dive coasters Both have inverts Both have track drop coasters Both have impressive landscaping and gardens.
  16. Why do I feel like Martin.C is JoshC's doppelganga?
  17. All the padding is so ugly.
  18. Mr. Theme park international is now unemployed... On another note, does anyone have a rough clue as to when this ride will be opening?
  19. The theming is incredible... Universal is in a league of its own. M£rlin please!
