Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2017
I 'know' its a Mack launch like Helix but its no good being that coaster type if its a meh layout. I'll be somewhat dissappointed if its only as short as Shockwave at Drayton and over in 30-40 seconds so I hope it has some length and variety to it.

With this project in particular, everything is out there for the finding anyway. I have no objections to anybody posting the images, info snippets or other relating stuff on CF, but understand that 'those in the know' can't for reasons stated above.
Yeah, I can see where you're coming from. But obviously those with inside information can't release everything they know. I would LOVE to share the images I've seen and the information I know about all the 'secret' things I've heard, but by doing so I could jeopardise my relationship with the parks and any future career in the industry. Don't see it so much as gloating, but if 'those in the know' keep bleating on about it, take it as a sign that what is potential proposed is going to fabulously good and they are itching to say more.Smithy said:

All I know is that it's a Mack multi launcher similar to Helix and it's rumoured to be replacing the current car ride (with the station where the car ride station is) and sprawling around that area and the old boat ride.
It will open in 2018, 2016 is prepping the site, 2017 building it.
If the above is right then brilliant, I'll keep an eye out for any plans which surface to see the layout, other than that, bring on construction
If anyone wants to give me more details I'll happily take them and update everyone on behalf of the coaster gods.

Going by the plans thought this is definitely more Helix than Blue Fire.
Yeah I'm pretty sure Blue Fire is rated pretty highly, I can't recall ever hearing a 'bad' review about it.cjbrandy said:

Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2017
If it makes anyone feel any better I know nothing "in the know" about this coaster
But then I know loads about Chinese parks you'll never visit... Wait you don't care? oh fine then. I won't tell you about the epic new Jungle mouse coming to that province you've never heard of.
I digress. I've not been to BPB since before Infusion but any coaster along the lines of what people say would probably get my ass in gear and get me up there again.

I'm not in the know but if the enthusiasts who are say it's going to be amazing and that there's a lot to it, I'm satisfied :--D I'm pretty certain we're about to see something that's easily the best coaster in the UK and perhaps one of the top 10 in the whole of Europe!
