Flat ride and high throughput doesn't exist. Especially in a theme park environment.

If Thorpe got a Juvelen clone I don't think you'd be able to get me off of it. The best Intamin ever <3

Mack have always been the old reliable company but I think with blue fire and now with Helix they really have turned a corner. Helix isn't just a big bold ride, it's a well paced, relentless thriller and any park in Europe could do something original and bold with the ride type. Parks like Oakwood, Drayton and Flamingoland could really excel if they asked Mack for one. They truly are fantastic rides.

Thorpe is definitly the worst for one train operation it would seem.

LET US GATHER AROUND THE FIREPLACE AND DISCUSS THINGS OF AN INTAMIN PERSUASION.

They've got their work cut out in Shoreditch.

Somehow, there is a part of me, that doesn't think that was the case....

Despite my massive love for Phantasialand, I've not been back since 2006. Your trip report may have given me the inspiration to go again =)

You're going to have to enlighten us on this one, how does he bring upon himself people (I.e. you) being mean to him.

Well of course it doesn't, on the other hand I can't think of many small scale dark rides, even thinks like the Fantasyland rides at Disneyland take up a chock full of room and they are very small scale rides.

To add to what Pluk said, Duel takes up a heck of a load of space too. Something Thorpe just doesn't have to play with.

We could just go to Alton and see Nemesis on two trains at 9am every single day of the season to see it can be done with the Merlin machine.

It's the ride that just can't stop giving, even after death. A month ago this would be big news, now it's just.. lols

My guess is that they didn't reserve their leaving times for the park using park and reserve so had to wait for the people who did use the system to leave first.

It's ridiculous that they get outraged, it's an award that doesn't mean anything.

This.

Thanks for the fantastic report Eiddef, nice to read something on a park I know very little about. Much appreciated

Love how detailed the negative points are compared to the positives.

A time travelling post?! (The 3DS has sold 44.4 million worldwide and has sent an extremely low percentage of people into seizures).

Thats awesome. No wonder enthusiasts love Cedar Point.

Sorry Jason, but like Thorpe Park, I EXPECT UNDIVIDED ATTENTION AND OBEDIENCE ##unvote ##vote Jason

I am the Intamin king, no matter what you try and throw at me Kanonen, I would just enjoy it more and more AND MORE. I mean this is my Baco face for crying out loud. MOTHER BUZZING BACO. And I love it.

I Marc Simpson see all with my knowing eye. ##vote Cornflakes SILENCE SHALL NOT BE TOLERATED.

You could say the same for Monster. B&M's seem to have longevity on their side it seems.

Sorry guys I was eating Creams at Thorpe Park, whilst on grindr searching for naked Reading players. Yes thats right, I'm Marc Simpson, Thorpe Park master or Lord, King or just Ruler if you so decide. Bow to me.
