Paul Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Just seen on the Thorpe Park website they have pics of ppl riding SAW, might be for when they were filming the TV advert?http://www.thorpepark.com/gallery/saw/saw7.htmlhttp://www.thorpepark.com/gallery/saw/saw8.htmlhttp://www.thorpepark.com/gallery/saw/saw9.htmlLucky B*******SLucky beetroots indeed lol. I can't wait to get on that ride. And yes, I presume that was filming for the advert. Quote
rollerross11 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I want to see the blades spin now just to find outhow fast and what direction. Quote
James Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I can't help but notice the lack of cameras on the front of the cars for the on ride DVD :-| I want to see the blades spin now just to find outhow fast and what direction.They spin in the direction the blades are pointing, and they're not particularly fast.

But considering we won't be the first publice members to ride, plus how long we will be spending there, I can't see it being that low, but we shall see. Quote
Sidders Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Oh great: another small piece of info that leaked onto the net and will now start a 10 page debate on whether it was fair or not...Thorpe really have naffed up the Ride It First AND the early riding opertunities on the 12th. Quote
bubbly Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I was going to say, I'm not lucky enough to be 1 of 4 people lol!It's funny how we have to be there for 10:30am when we aren't riding till 12pm-2pm! Quote
Mark9 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I think those pictures on the Thorpe Park site are staff. Quote
James Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Knowing Thorpe its to allow for the 2 hour queue of winners from other competitions that will get run Quote
bubbly Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 haha I'll make sure I'm there nice and early :)Do you think the other 5 rides that are open for the AP holders will be accessible by everyone else as well? Quote
Cernuschi Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I was going to say, I'm not lucky enough to be 1 of 4 people lol!It's funny how we have to be there for 10:30am when we aren't riding till 12pm-2pm!I was thinking the same thing. Wonder what were are going to be doing for an hour and half? Quote
bubbly Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Did you win as well Cernuschi???? Congrats Quote
Cernuschi Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Yep. Was really chuffed about it, cant wait to ride now. It seems a shame to drive all that way for 1 ride on it though. I'm sure it would be worth it but would be slightly disapointed if no other rides were available to the winners. Quote
Chris Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Yep. Was really chuffed about it, cant wait to ride now. It seems a shame to drive all that way for 1 ride on it though. I'm sure it would be worth it but would be slightly disapointed if no other rides were available to the winners.One hour from wokingham?Takes me 30 minutes and I'm just down the road from Wokingham!

bubbly Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Yeah I know what you mean. It's an hours drive for me which isn't too bad, plus I have nothing else to do so it's cool Quote
Cernuschi Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Normally takes me around 50 minutes. It may not be as far as some people but petrol is expensive . I'm not that fussed really, just thankfull I'm going. Quote

TimR Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I can't go Friday, but meh I'm going Sunday so I dont mind to much, and the ride it first competition doesnt really make sense since people are going on thursday, they kinda mucked that up... Quote
Sidders Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Turns out my parents won't let me go due to them not understanding how unlikely it is for me to win.That must be a kick in the teeth... I'm waiting until the ride's been open a few weeks before I go. Quote
Deleted Users Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 That must be a kick in the teeth... I'm waiting until the ride's been open a few weeks before I go.Trip planned for 30th with some friends. I just really wanted to be in on the opening experience. Quote

Jake C Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I won the dicipals of saw , but I can't go because of other commitments . Quote
Deleted Users Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Considering how many people have won so far, Thorpe must be giving out quite a lot of invites. Quote
bubbly Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Yeah I was thinking the same. I mean I've seen at least 4 people on the forum who have won and there are bound to be people who are not on here who have won too! Quote
