Re: Thorpe Park
That does look pretty cool! Im glad they still seem to be improving the Swarm area.
In other news, I just noticed this on the Thorpe website
Im guessing it could be linked with Rita being closed the other day? They might also be making changes to the paths where you pass under the track.

Re: Thorpe Park
I think they are both about the same, they both seem to post something pretty much every day. Thorpe however tend to plug things alot more, like the rave & ride nights.

Re: Thorpe Park
I was at the park on Friday, it was quite busy at the start of the day but it died down later, Stealth was closed all day which disappointing, everything else was working fine.
Although the park isn't looking so much like the "Nations Thrill Capital", The beach is busier than its ever been and the small rides like the Flying Fish, Banana Boat and Carousel have queue's and the park has a lot more families than usual!

Re: Thorpe Park
How does the fire work, does it go off when the train is near by (like the water), or is it just random?

Re: Thorpe Park
Im guessing even if it went off when you went past it wouldnt get you? As if there was a technical problem and the fire stayed on you would end up burning all the riders

Re: Thorpe Park
I was at the park for the first time on friday, I was informed that stealth would be closed for the day's it was on it second day of 2 day maintanence so I was a bit dissapointed, it was a very quiet day and the largest queue was 45mins for Swarm in the morning which soon quietened down to 5-10mins which meant RE-RIDES! Samurai was shocking however it felt as if as soon as it got going it stopped it was rather pointless.
I went back saturday morning to ride Stealth but it was still closed and would be the whole day according to the staff so im just waiting to hear if it has re-opened yet before we go again.
Overall, I really enjoyed my day here, its a lot easier on the feet compared to alton but doesnt feel crammed in!

Re: Thorpe Park
Thorpe Park currently have a offer if you book online and visit before 13th August at only £20 a ticket!! Which is better than any BOGOF/Half price, etc. You also get to print the tickets at home so no need to queue.
