Jamie W Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 What does everyone think of Ring Racer?the new 'worlds fastest coaster' in Nurburgring.I dont think it looks that good apart from the launch.I don't like it. It has a fast launch and then, after it just reaches maximum speed, it breaks! What a waste of speed and momenntum. They should have done a Rita-ish ride layout instead.

Will Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 I was supposed to go Paintballing today, and was supposed to meet mates at 09:00 but train was delayed. Some person I asked gave me the wrong directions and had me at this paintballing place, which there were 3.I didn't bother going in the end and the worst part my friend whose 18th it is, told us the place is 5 minutes away.

Theme Park bloke Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I was walking up Guildford High Street yesterday, and if I'd have been a little further on, I'd have actually seen this happen:http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/surrey/8161870.stmHowever I wasn't far enough up the high street to see it happen - I heard 3 or 4 large bangs, and when I looked down the passage, saw a large sledge hammer on the ground and someone running off down the passage towards North Street.

Paul Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 It's not the fact that they are ashamed, it's just that they are trying to advertise the ride in the most positive way. And not including units (kmph) is a primary technique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
