April 8, 201015 yr comment_88924 I personally love Quantum , It used to be a lot better, but it's still awesome. To be honest I'd welcome it with open arms to Chessington
April 10, 201015 yr comment_89090 Quantum is sometimes fun for a 5 min break, or an end-of-night on FN.Personally I think a 3-swing Screamin' Swing would look amazing!
April 10, 201015 yr comment_89093 3 swings? I'm pretty sure the counterweights would fail if there were three swings, not to mention the 'top' of Rush would inevitably snap due to the strain of the middle swing. And besides, where would the pistons for the middle swing go?

April 16, 201015 yr comment_89635 Quantum used to be sooo intense, my Dad ctually had to hold me in. They shouldnt get rid of it.3 Swing Screamin'-Swing, no way.
April 17, 201015 yr comment_89754 I love the way a lot of effort was put into Quantum's appearance even though, compared to the park's major rides, it is fairly small and less thrilling. I think it is the fact that it is so much more intense than it looks is why it is so popular. It is a good ride to stumble across while in the Lost City.It does have the weird problem of all those holes in the theming. They seem to have been cut out to get at mechanical parts but never replaced. It just looks dodgy having a wonky shape sliced into one of the pillars, revealing the support underneath. Also, does anybody know why the original themed ends were removed? I can only guess it was something to do with weight.
April 17, 201015 yr comment_89758 Indeed they wre removed for weight issues. As for the pillars, I noticed it too! Wasn't at all surprised to see them un-replaced.
May 28, 201015 yr comment_92305 I went today no sign of life on Quantum with a bit of the rides themeing next to the exit so not sure whats gone on there.
August 11, 201015 yr comment_96311 Is the height stick thing still in the tree next to the ride because I couldnt see it when I went the other day.
August 22, 201015 yr comment_97134 I cant believe how rough such a small ride can be! But still gives you a small stomach churn so its always good!
August 22, 201015 yr comment_97143 I've never had a rough ride on Quantum, but it has churned my stomach up on many occasions
August 22, 201015 yr comment_97145 If it didn't jolt every time it swings down, the stomach churning would be insane
September 9, 201015 yr comment_98349 I always come off with a back pain of death!Quantum and Zodiac both make me dizzy as Hell, but I still go on it anyway. I perservere to go on every ride I can when I go during Fright Nights.
September 10, 201015 yr comment_98434 I perservere to go on every ride I can when I go during Fright Nights.That's the spirit!
September 23, 201014 yr comment_99102 Quantum was down this afternoon, it didn't seem a major problem....
October 3, 201014 yr comment_99670 I like Quantum, it doesn't have the same ferocity as the older magic carpets but great fun all the same!
October 29, 201014 yr comment_101921 Quantum is probably the only ride at Thorpe that actually makes me feel sick....
October 30, 201014 yr comment_101955 For me Quantum is absolutely fine. I can handle practically any ride except for Zodiac (Enterprises). If I went on more than three times I would definately feel ill.
October 30, 201014 yr comment_101994 ^Yes, I'm like that, I can handle pretty much any ride other than HUSS Enterprises. (don't quite know why though?)
October 30, 201014 yr comment_102089 I can do Zodiac once or twice, but after that I feel a little queasy.
December 29, 201014 yr comment_105815 Ages ago< me and my dad went on the last ride of the day and we got seven rides without getting off in total
December 30, 201014 yr comment_105854 x:\ no way out, samurai and zodiac are the ones that make me feel sick
