Photo TR : Oakwood Theme Park 30/06/09


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, this is my second TR ever my first being an Alton Towers one back in 07.

 

Ill just start with a little intro about me. I'm Scott, i'm 24 and live in Wales in the UK. I am a Police Officer and have been serving in my local force for the last five years and i'm currently single.

 

I'm a complete coaster geek and would say that Intamin is my number 1 passion. Totally obsessed with accelerators and anything touched by Arrow..........Me + Old School Arrow custom Loopers = Sexual Arousal!!

 

So, yesterday we visited Oakwood theme park which is about 1.5 hours drive from my house. we arrived at 10:30 and at that point there were 23 cars in the car park! Good Times!

 

Upon entering the park via the Mini Train (which is compulsary by the way) and made out way straight to Speed as my friend Catrin hadn't experienced a Gerstlauer Eurofighter of that calibre yet!

 

My last time of riding this orange beast was last year and as I remember it was smooth as silk, ahem......its VERY different now! They were running only one car and it felt as if they had been running the same car since the park opened months ago. The car was juddery, the wheels felt like they hadnt been changed in years and whilst on the transition into the loop, I honestly felt that the car was going to de-rail!

 

Didnt stop me riding it 5 times though! Rough as hell but still quite fun!

 

We then headed over to Megafobia and walked straight into the station as there were no queues whatsoever. MF was running superbly, smooth as silk on the first drop and a complete airtime massacre for the rest of the course! I didnt manage to get that many pictures of MF but im sure you all know what it looks like!

 

We then rode every other ride in the park to wait for Hydro to open.

 

Right, thats enough from me, onto the pics!
