TP Daniel Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 The DJ was quite entertaining yesterday, shame most of the songs were very similar,Stealth had a failed launch (I think) at about 4:00 yesterday. It went as if it would launch but went about 10ft down the track and stopped, was up again within about 20 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James39 Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Father's days queues were great! - Stealth was only 10mins late morning.In fact, rumba rapids had a longer queue even though it wasn't sunny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holtjammy16 Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 How's the reliabilty of Stealth been this month?Terrible...ish. I've been every weekend since halfway through June and its broken down every time, I've noticed it usually brakes down just before the England flag train launches .And every time I think it's been the same reason that the catch car hasn't returned to the station.But it hasn't stayed shut all day, it opened somewhere around 1 - 3 pm today I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 I like this video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzU1FPpOQzQI like how it stops and doesnt move for 6/7 seconds before rolling back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.man Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 I wish that happened to me whilst I had my camera in my hand Everyone will be like how did you get those pictures. I also wish that happened to me so I can get a rollback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th13teen Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I have only been on stealth 60 times so I'm pretty poor to state my feelings on it but it is a great coaster for the whole park but stealth does need to be re-advertised because I have noticed people are forgeting what stealth it!

th13teen Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Can you elaborate on your last point please?I mean stealth is almost becoming the 'what?' ride after 4 years its almost unknown to non ride enthusists and needs to be brought to the publics attention again that there is this beast of a ride at thorpe come ride it but they are still hammering saw its time for stealths time to shine once again!

Deleted Users Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Yes that's why it had a 15 minute queue of people waiting for it to reopen after it broke down and had a similar queue length to the other big rollercoasters when I last visited..

Fred Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 The ride is big, its not like people can miss it. Doesn't need advertising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were hammering Stealth in. That means, if we were to follow your theory, Nemesis Inferno and Colossus were the 'what' rides of then, and they're even worse now?Nu-uh.

I think its because when people think rollercoaster they think scenic railway or a looping star! so the more loops the more popular! Nemesis will always be a 'what' ride because unlike the amazing alton towers nemi it has no substance to the ride to keep it lasting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 To be honest it has nothing to do with the "what ride" factor. It's where people are heading. People always gravitate towards the newest ride and then go on from there. They don't usualy think "well we'll do Saw then go and do Stealth", it's always go from one ride to the nearest one. You can see this at Alton quite easily as Th13teen and Rita will without fail have epic queues compared to the dead Forbidden Valley. Colossus will struggle to get through queues as its the lowest throughput big coaster at Thorpe. Plus its ride system and Trains are rubbish!

James6 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Would've thought that was impossible, hence the height restrictions the park has (not the ones from the council), even if it is like 500ft or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millie27 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 (edited) Seven people have said it to me. They're all saying it's on the news, and I have checked, but I'm in Spain and can't find anything. It probably isn't true. I think I just fell for a joke, but I'm not sure.edit: oh it's not true.

eee Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 First time Thorpe visit on Sat (no planes hit anything ) and got to say- Stealth- wow- puts Rita to shame. My other half still prefers Furious Baco thougheee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 There was an ambulance parked outside Stealth today and most of the Amity area was out of bounds - anyone know what the deal was? Hope whoever the ambulance was for is okay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
