    Potential Fast and Furious replacement for Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit?

    I've always liked Rip Ride Rockit but Maurer was always the wrong manufacturer for a coaster of this scale. It's a shame B&M couldn't originally do it for whatever reason. Shame its days appear to be numbered but I look forward to what they are replacing it with. A launched Fast and Furious...

    Alton Towers New Flat Ride?

    I guess it could potentially end up being another painted black Merlin coaster. At least the lift hill is already black so they don't have to respray that 😂 Could be themed to the Phalanx and boarding their new aircraft which they will be using to attack the Nemesis alien or something along...

    Alton Towers New Flat Ride?

    It's great they are properly theming this with extensive landscaping, they could have easily just plonked another top spin down on the exisitng site but have gone all out with it. The fact construction has started early means this is going to be heavily themed or maybe even opening this season...

    Universal considering UK theme park in Bedford

    To echo others previously both the Wizarding World at Universal Studios Japan and the Warner Brothers Studio Tour Tokyo have opened in Japan so they have come to some kind of agreement there. They are around 6 hours apart from each other though rather than 45 minutes. As said above I can't see...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Be interesting to know what the "other methods" were. In regards to the reach, has the computer technology now advanced to a point where they can accurately place the supports and track knowing when it is physically built the tolerance will be minimal therefore a physical pull through is no...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Oh really, fair enough. I thought the dark line above the mounts in the image was the trim fin. It was just genuinely slow in the outerbank then 😂

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Remember though there is already quite a large magnetic trim installed on the drop before you go into the outer bank. Assuming that trim hasn’t been removed it will have hit that plus the slow lift hill, the new trains its first run etc. So all hope isn’t lost yet at that outer bank being a...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    - 3:00 on the live stream to be able to watch it again. That was very exciting even just watching the stream. Considering that was the very first run the first element was taken very quickly but then almost stalled on the huge outerbank. I wonder if the trim brake engaged a bit too much there...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    There’s an actual process behind the testing and this isn’t just a show for all the goons watching over the fence?! [emoji23] Makes you realise just how steep that lift hill is seeing the train on it now!

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    ^ I knew there was a new sound track but was kinda hoping that slow part of the area score was kept somewhere, added to the the sense of mystique as you had put it previously 🥺

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Random question, is the musical score still played with the high pitch sounds etc? The part of the soundtrack i’m referring to is in the video below. (Was initially pulled in by the clickbait thumbnail but it’s an old video of how they used to dye the water red. Interesting none the less)

    Walt Disney Studios Park further developments

    Yeah the park has had a real identity crisis for a long time now. Im not a huge fan of the "Disney Adventure World" name tbh. "Walt Disney's Adventure World" sounds better but whatever. I just hope they implement the new "Adventure World" theme properly and it isn't just a mish mash of themes...
