Lewis. Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 I've got my heart set on a Mega-Lite now, and I don't think an X-Car would suit Thorpe after thinking about it... However, it probably wouldn't fit on the site of MHFS so I'll go beg somewhere else :PI'd like to see a nice family flat ride on this site, or something that's not too thrilling but not too tame either... if that makes any sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th13teen Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 I dont think a mega lite would fit, It would be good but one of the key elements of the megalite is height and to overpower all the other rides but with thorpe parks very high skyline even if they did you probably wouldent be able to see it! And for that sort of ride you really do in my opinion with that sort of space I think you would get an 'outside Th13teen' track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topsyturvy15 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 With Thorpe Park using up so much of its available space surely this area will soon be redeveloped but into what? I would guess that it may become another small ride but what else do people think?(Hope this hasn't already been posted) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holtjammy16 Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 I think It's a possible place for one of the 5 new flat rides in the near future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COASTERFRECK Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 it is a big space but I think the old chessington rodeo might fit in that space but I dontthink Thorpe wood put that into there park it is old after all. I also dont think they will put a majour ride there because Thorpe use it as the asylums que line at fright night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster XTREME Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 This space needs to be used at some point. The size of the area can accommodate a small to medium sized flat, a Top Spin would be suitable but then again there' s Rameses Revenge down the road.

Topsyturvy15 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I don't think they will put a thrill ride in as it's one of the last kids areas left, with the carousel etc I thin they may but another childrens ride in like Tiny Truckers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 ^If Thorpe put in a Tiny Truckers like ride I would personally go over there and slap whoever made that decision...That's just what they need with their lack of children's rides, a low capacity one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holtjammy16 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Isn't tiny truckers kind of like fungle safari?It would be pointless them adding a ride similar to what they just got rid of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure soon enough we will see something similar to waht Gerstlauer wrote in a report of SAW - The Ride, Anyone under 12 should not visit the park and instead visit CWoA.

jjh123horry Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I swear in the MTDP there was a bit in it saying that they were going to expand the burger king in canada creek over the MHFS area, I can remember if this is true, I havent had a look in a long time.

Ricky Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Because it's all you talk about.Half of us work for the flipping parks yet don't arselick the park pretending it's the best thing in the worldTheres hundreds of things I hate about tp, and I dont talk about cwoa, Lego and AT because in my eyes they arnt somewhere I would want to find myself. Chessington is a bore, as is lego, and AT is too far for whats there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chessington is a bore, as is lego, and AT is too far for whats there.I honestly cannot recall the last time you said a negative thing about Thorpe. Nor can I remember the last time you didn't defend the park when someone made a negative statement.And if you find Chessington and Lego a bore, and would have bad things to say about them, you can hardly criticize people for having bad things to say about Thorpe, can you?

Benin Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Because tis for children... you know short annoying things that are also found on the forum?Like you you mean?I mean the day I saw you at Chessie for the 'meet', you woke up late, got Marc to leave the park and pick you up, came in at 1, and when you met up with the rest of us you spent 99% of the time on your phone...And then you left at like... 3... You can say it's a bore all you want, but if you only give a park 2 hours for a chance then you're not in the right mind-set... Especially when you don't even try and talk to other people just on your phone... James6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electricBlll Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Bear in mind that Chessington's history is rich in thrill rides as well. Vampire was the Nemesis of its time. MikeyT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
