July 3, 201510 yr comment_212430 I had a roll back a few years back - not a great thing. Just end up sitting there for ages.

July 13, 201510 yr comment_212975 Thought it might be something like that thanks :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
July 14, 201510 yr comment_212982 Does stealth get to its stop speed every launch? ~This is interesting as it's based around youngsters visiting TP as a physics study..... http://rooksheathscience.com/2014/07/18/year-12-physics-students-at-thorpe-park-2014/
July 16, 201510 yr comment_213145 Yes, rollbacks aren't that exciting. They just bring enthusiast bragging rights. I've been on two, for the record. ;-)
February 17, 20169 yr comment_228114 My stomach is on 55 inch, who is over the 51 inch torso restriction on the rollercoasters, and do then think that I will not fit in the seats?
February 18, 20169 yr comment_228141 Well I presume that if you get in the seat, put down the restraint and you feel entirely comfortable then they'd let you ride, after all I doubt that Thorpe Park will get out a tape measure! Edited February 19, 20169 yr by Peaj
February 18, 20169 yr comment_228144 My stomach is on 55 inch, who is over the 51 inch torso restriction on the rollercoasters, and do then think that I will not fit in the seats? Stealth is more forgiving then say Colossus -- All the coasters have test seats you can try out, aslong as the seatbelt goes in you should be fine.
February 18, 20169 yr comment_228149 Yeah the coasters at Thorpe have test seats, and Nemesis Inferno has modified seating on two of the rows (think it's rows 3 & 4 but don't quote me on that). Colossus is the worst due to the poor train/restraint design.
February 18, 20169 yr comment_228174 Only one stealth train has adjustable seatbelts though and unfortunately it isn't always out
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229602 Noticed one of the trains running at the weekend had been cleaned up and had all its black vinyl's all re-done. Was looking good
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229667 It was train 3, but they haven't painted the number back on yet, and it still has the names on the headrests...
March 15, 20169 yr comment_229761 To Stealth, the ride that got took me out of my Thorpe Park dark age.
March 16, 20169 yr comment_229787 It was train 3, but they haven't painted the number back on yet, and it still has the names on the headrests... Good times, was the best purchase I ever made....considering the names were supposed to be on it for a year
April 9, 20169 yr comment_231916 Who here thinks Stealth would be a lot better if they added another inversion before the end??
April 9, 20169 yr comment_231918 Stealth doesn't have any inversions and it would not be benefited if one was added.
April 9, 20169 yr comment_231921 Stealth is good as it is. A little short mind you but an inversion wouldn't add anything to the ride. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
April 9, 20169 yr comment_231923 Part of me always wonders if Thorpe will ever retrack Stealth to change the top hat to an inverting top hat. World's tallest inversion right there. I know it'll never happen, but it fells like such a Merlin thing to at least consider...

I know it'll never happen, but it fells like such a Merlin thing to at least consider... To be honest I've heard that before and it sounds amazing... but 100% a merlin thing to do.

April 9, 20169 yr comment_231925 Ten years ago I'd have said yes. Now a days I think Stealth is fine as it is. There's four other coasters that do inversions if you really want that.
April 9, 20169 yr comment_231928 I don't think it should be an inversion, they should just bung Rita's circuit on at the end. Combining the two rides together would make a reasonably decent ride overall, not the "half a ride" experience both rides give you.
