  • In my Thorpe Park, I would redesign and relocate Storm Surge. Something and somewhere like this:

    Okay I'm insanely bored so: End of 2014 overlapping into 2015: - Removal of Slammer... it seems to be heading that way as it is. - Clean up of the park overall: repaints done where needed and effects

  • My next major investment would be a budget of similar scale to a new Roller Coaster £12-20 Million, however rather than put any new ride in, I would re-brand, market and advertise a brand new Theme Pa

Because of the throughputs that is. Quantum and Zodiac are 600+ whilst Samurai is under 500. Why do people have problems with rides with no queue. Surely they are better because it means you get more rides during the day. Never understand this "it never has queues so must be rubbish" thing people have :)

Some good ideas but...2009) Wouldn't really fit anymore, a Flyer would probably go in Neptune's Kingdom flying over it, or on future land infills.2010) Thorpe's height ceiling is around 100ft, but Runnymede was lenient for rides like Slammer, Detonator, and Stealth.2011) Alton Towers and Chessington both have Top-Spins (Rameses Revenge and Ripsaw) so it would be pointless for Thorpe to get one.2015) It would be hard to heavily advertise a Mine-Train as they're family coasters, although I don't object to Thorpe getting one as they are very easy to theme well.2015) I wouldn't build a new ride, but a bigger, larger capacity stadium instead.2016) I don't think Thorpe would stay open quite that late and they wouldn't get rid of HellGate because its the only maze with a real storyline.2018) The X:\No Way Out and Stadium spots and wouldn't stay empty for 2 to 3 years. Any coaster with less than 6-7 inversions would be an insult to Colossus' memory (I say don't get rid of it, it just needs a little TLC, that's all).

2009) the flyer would have been instead of euro fighter2011) I would get it of chessington and they could have quantum and zodiac2015) it was supposed to say new island advertised not mine train but that would be added any way in adverts and to the island2015) they never use the stadium so a ride like spider man would be good2016) maby 11 then they did that in 2002 and there would be nowhere for hell gate to go if they got rid of x no way out2018 they would be closed for construction and the new ride would be a replaca of kumba medusa or kraken since there all the same so 8 loops instead. now its perfect it gets rid of all the problames you had :)
comment_37177

Ahh, but where would get the space for a B&M Mega-Looper like Kumba, Medusa or Kraken? And each of them have 7 inversions, not 8. Just leave it at the fact that Thorpe won't move Colossus for years yet, as I said, a bit of TLC and train refurbishment would do it the world of good.

Well you could try, but have you seen how small Thorpe is? They've pratically run out of space already, and the only other thing to do would be infilling the lake entirely. For that you really would need space like Cedar Point or Alton Towers have. And I'm trying to say this in the nicest possible way :mellow:.

Paint X black, with the blue stripe replaced with a white strip or silvery, and beef it up to me along the lines of Euro Sat, going mental with lasers. Move Zodiac into where OG is at the moment, maybe put something backing onto Colossus work shed, with maybe access road through the middle of the area. (Liftoff being played anyone?!)Would be oh so much better than X://whatthehelljusthappened and OG.
