Thorpe Park Trip Report September 28th
RNRC replied to RNRC's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
What's so funny? -
yes. Do you ever skip an awesome ride because of the que?
-
Lol. That's great. Two mothers and two daughters are shopping. How many people is that?

Your least favorite Walt Disney World ride and why
RNRC replied to a topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Lol. I havn't been to Orlando in over a year and I still have "It's a small world" in my head. -
Even when I'm given the answer, I'm stumped. Great riddle. (runs off and has a strop because I couldn't solve the riddle)

There are rumours floating around about what Blackpoole plan for 2010. They have said that they wanted to make the tallest and fastest coaster in the world and it will go out to sea. In my opinion, not likley. Pepsi Max has enough wind problems, so I doubt if a 500foot version could cope. But Blackpoole are planning something big. Any thoughts?
-
Nope. Nor do I own 1,2 or 3. Have you ever been on a coaster when it's broken down?
-
No. Do you ever get nervous before riding a launch coaster?
-
My favourites are no longer available. But here they are. Blackcurrent Hubba Bubba and Tropical Hubba Bubba.

Thorpe Park is the only theme park I can go to a lot. When I last went, I got a high ride count and the ques were very short. As soon as I arrived in the park I went straight to Quantum. (A magic carpet ride). Seeing as there was literally no que, I went on it three times. It's the best family ride at Thorpe Park, in my opinion. It gives very powerful negative G's. After I had finished with Quantum I went over to the ten-looping rollercoaster, Colossus. I had a front seat within ten minutes. Colossus was great fun. There's some good airtime and the ending to the ride is amazing. Four cobra rolls. Then I decided to go on something a little less thrilling and I went to Logger's Leap, the log flume. As always, it was a great laugh. It remains one of my favourite log flumes in the UK. I then went to a cafe to get a drink. Once I'd finished, I headed over to Stealth, the rocket coaster (basically, it's Top Thrill Dragster's little Sister) sadly, it broke down so I decided to come back later. I headed over to Detonator, the tower ride. You are plunged down so fast that you experience no less than 5g. Also, some very powerful negative gs. I went on Detonator twice before going to Nemesis Inferno. NI is an inverted coaster which travels through and around a volcano at 48mph. The vertical loop was the best part. This is when I decided to have lunch. I went to KFC, where I had a great view of Tidal Wave. I decided that would be my next ride of the day, once I'd made myself waterproof. Once I was on Tidal Wave, I got a good view of Stealth working again, so I "rushed" over to Stealth. Stealth was FANTASTIC. The speed of the launch is awesome. 0-80 in 2.3 seconds. I next went to the strangest ride in the park, X:/NO WAY OUT, the world's only backwards coaster in the dark. The queline used to be pitch black with spinning tunnels and dummies but it's sadly changed. This ride is hated by many. But I really love it and I don't know anyone else who does. When you get off the ride and leave the building, it's like waking from a dream. Next, I hit two flat rides in 10 minutes, Rush (the giant swing) and Slammer (a sky-swat). When you go towards the sky on Rush, you come right out of your seats and onto your lapbar. Amazing. Slammer was fun too. There's a lot of g'forces on Slammer, but it does hurt your shoulders a little bit. I then ran over to Depth Charge. This is basically a waterslide where you sit in a dingy and slide down. It's more fun to ride it when you're racing somebody, but the airtime is pretty good. The last ride of the day was Ribena Rumba Rapids which was wet and fun as you travel down the not-so-rough river and into Ribena caves and down mini-waterfalls (very mini). The only rides I never got to go on were Zodiac (an enterprise) and Vortex (another flat ride). There was also a flat ride called Samurai Which I didn't go on, but that was because I hate the ride as I get quite ill on it. It was a really good day and I'll be going back in the new season. RIDE COUNT: DETONATOR X2 STEALTH X4 TIDAL WAVE X2 X:/NO WAY OUT X3 COLOSSUS X2 LOGGER'S LEAP X4 RIBENA RUMBA RAPIDS X1 NEMESIS INFERNO X3 DEPTH CHARGE X1 RUSH X4 SLAMMER X2 QUANTUM X3

1. How many times have you been abroad?
-
Hiya. I love thorpe park too.
-
I really like the choices of the songs. They really fit in well with what's going on on the screen.

I agree with Elissa. Stitch's Great Escape was pathetic compared to Alien Encounter. Stitch is the only ride in Orlando that I think is crap. -
20ish. How many songs do you know off by heart?

What are your TOP TEN COASTERS
RNRC replied to ddaver177's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
1. Stealth 2. Rock n' Rollercoaster 3. The Hulk 4. The Mummie's Revenge 5. Kraken 6. Sheikra 7. Oblivion 8. Rita: Queen Of Speed 9. Colossus 10. Gwazi -
you're right, but thats not why. the reason is that they cant preform dental work on themselves, that means the one wiht the good teeth has his teeth done at the one with the rotten teeth, making him the better dentist That's correct. A father is driving his son to school. The car is hit by a bus and the father is killed. The son is rushed to hospital. The surgeon takes one look at him and says "oh no, that's my son". How?
-
Most comfortable?
RNRC replied to thrillrideseeker's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I suppose Nemesis Inferno and Kraken has very comfy seats too. -
Yep, that's correct. One town has two dentists. One of them has sparkling, white teeth. The other one has rotten, yellow teeth. Which one would you make an appointment with?
-
0. How may times a day do you listen to "Queen"?
-
10. How many plays do you put on per year?

I seem to remember them doing a spoof of Steve Irwin a few years ago. Although I think it's tastless to do this they have done tihngs much worse. But I would rather south park not do these things.
