October 8, 201410 yr comment_194200 I know its only minor details and I should be grateful that the ride is running, but it would be nice over the closed season if the wheel covers are sorted as some are missing and a few of them without the fire stripes on them.
October 8, 201410 yr comment_194203 Pfft. Inferno isn't the worst! You obviously haven't done Stealth in the rain if you think Inferno's trouble! I've done stealth, the point of my post is the getting wet part not the rain being painful part. Just sayin'
October 8, 201410 yr comment_194206 I think mean streak in the rain wins most painful. Massive drips from the supports, the increase in running speed and the ride lasts forever.
October 8, 201410 yr comment_194215 ...while Stealth gives you the experience of being shot at by a miniature firing squad! try riding Time Machine at adventure island in the pouring rain!!! You cannot breathe and it hurts so much!
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194267 I think mean streak in the rain wins most painful. Massive drips from the supports, the increase in running speed and the ride lasts forever. Let's be honest here, Mean Streak doesn't need rain to be painful, it does a perfectly good job of that in nice weather...
October 9, 201410 yr comment_194337 Did an inferno ride on the back row in the rain whilst dark. Quite possibly the best ride I've had on this beast this year. For once it was almost at Nemesis style force.
October 10, 201410 yr comment_194358 Something about Inferno really owes to being ridden in the dark in my opinion. Every memory I've ever had of riding it in the dark has been amazing.
October 11, 201410 yr comment_194415 It rode so well in the dark last night! It was better than any other time I've ridden it!
October 11, 201410 yr comment_194521 It was brilliant in the dark tonight. Makes such a difference when the mist is working which it was tonight. The smoke machine coming from Blair Witch Project also added a great effect too.
October 12, 201410 yr comment_194535 The mist really did have a great effect last night! That ride on Inferno was possibly my most disorientating ride yet, as at the end of the tunnel, there was so much mist that I couldn't even see the exit, and it was just at dusk as well so of course I couldn't see any daylight!
October 12, 201410 yr comment_194547 I do have to say though, when I went in the morning on Friday, the smoke was working really well, but when I went at night, it wasn't! Weird.
October 16, 201410 yr comment_194981 I do have to say though, when I went in the morning on Friday, the smoke was working really well, but when I went at night, it wasn't! Weird. By that time its cold enough without it xD I went on it on Sunday at around 5-6 and the smoke was working (Only in the tunnel tho)
October 19, 201410 yr comment_195353 The smoke wasn't on for all day Friday and Saturday at all. However coming out of Blair Witch I saw a view of the station which I've never seen before, I'm sure some of you have but I thought... that looks pretty cool:
October 28, 201410 yr comment_196112 Argh which bit is that? I'm thinking coming out of the station.. but I swear that was themed or at least you couldn't see underneath it. This has confused me so much!
October 28, 201410 yr comment_196114 It is coming out the station, as that's the only location on the ride which has the dropping fence... I too swear it used to be themed...
October 28, 201410 yr comment_196118 Apparently not. A photo from it's opening year found on googles. The rockwork will protect you when looking from the lockers area. That's exciting apart from anyone who used to go on da TP express or now do blair witch.
January 25, 201510 yr comment_201549 Scary thought of the day. What if the reason nemesis inferno isnt in the feb half term line up is becuase its getting the backwards treatment like the six flags ones. Unlikely but could happen.
January 25, 201510 yr comment_201550 As possible as it is,I'm pretty sure that isn't going to be happening as there's been no mention of anything happening yet (even Swarm backwards was announced earlier than this back in 2013). Another reason why this won't be happening is because the last update of Themepark Guide's closed season pics depicts a fully built train in the station. I think if this ride isn't to appear in the lineup, it may be so the dark ride construction can progress.
January 26, 201510 yr comment_201552 I would hate thorpe to do a backwards train on nemesis inferno the backrow is the best place to sit in my opinion and it will just cause so much hassle with queuing
January 26, 201510 yr comment_201554 Nahhh, can't see it happening to be honest. Don't think it's worth thinking about really. There's no need for them to do it. Swarm's situation was different, due to the fact they need to up the "thrill factor" of the ride and make it more appealing for people to come and visit. Inferno is a trusty ride which (I assume) has good guest satisfaction. Okay, it's the 'least special' of the main coasters (as in, no gimmicks compared to the rest), but that does the ride some favours, perhaps making it as a more accessible major ride. Adding backwards rows would take that away from the ride, and isn't really necessary (in the sense of the ride doesn't need any more attention than what it gets - not saying Swarm's backwards rows are necessary!). If we see backwards rows on Inferno this year, I'll eat my hat. (Also, we don't know that Inferno isn't on the half term line up yet!) (After such confidence on my behalf, watch as Thorpe announce Inferno's backward rows sometime this week...)
January 26, 201510 yr comment_201555 They would have to turn the whole train around. Its very hard to do select rows. I did just say that as a scary thought. I didnt mean it to be a serious suggestion.
January 26, 201510 yr comment_201556 Don't even think about it. Something like that could be enough to trigger a rage induced murderous rampage in me.
January 26, 201510 yr comment_201557 Just been reading through this discussion. Please guys... ...DON'T GIVE THORPE ANY IDEAS!!!
January 26, 201510 yr comment_201569 Just me then.... okay through Halloween possibly that would be great
