stealthtastic Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 This is how S&S are so unreliable as Rush and Slammer are both down today I mean come on this is a joke thanks to S&S thorpe are losing money and stuff and I think S&S need to get there arses together and actaully build a ride that is reliable thay have built lots of rides and there all very unreliable anyone think that they are very unreliable to.

Fred Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 thanks to S&S thorpe are losing money and stuffOH dear god help us. The only money they're "losing" is by spending fixing the thing.. not a biggy for a multimillion pound company eh? .I just hope all the rides are open, especially rush, for when I visit next.. so be warned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Slammer opened today at 2.30. Rush was shut all day with no activity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealthtastic Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 peter thats what I mean there paying out lots of money for these to be fixed and S&S are not doing it properly thats what I was saying lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeC Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Thorpe would not lose money if a ride broke down, they aren't meant to be loss leaders. And I would imagine S+S may have paid Thorpe compensation for their various problems.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealthtastic Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 right ok then thanks for that but I werent sure if they would do that thats why I said this and by the way do u think S&S as a company are very unreliable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven G Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I don't think there is anything wrong with S&S Power as a company, not all problems are their fault. Parts can go wrong the same with anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.m.k Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I was at thorpe over the weekend and on monday. it seems that nothing is happening on Rush, with it just being left closed every day.Slammer was having problems saturday but then was tested with dummies sunday and opened late.Detonator was having problems on both saturday & sunday where the lift car was getting stuck and then having to be lowered VERY slowly but no problems on monday.I was quite happy with the 3 visits in the row. but monday was very disappointing being the busiest day with the coach park being filled!

James Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Detonator was also having that catch car problem quite a lot on Tuesday.Rush once again no visible activity going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nkay11 Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 I'm going to Thorpe Park on Saturday although wish I wasn't now because it's predicted to be heavy showers so not gonna be the best of days out.Does anyone have any idea if any rides will be shut on Saturday and if not, which ones will be most likely to close in the rain?Thanks.

Theme Park bloke Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 2 weeks after we had the snow back in April, I went to Thorpe Park and it was a damp day. It got so bad it started to hail, and we all boarded Samurai and then got straight back off because the hail was so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
