Inferno Insane

This weekend Cobra the Gerstlauer Bobsled at Paultons Park had a soft opening before it’s officially open next Saturday (18th). Going what the person had put they slowed the lift hill so it not too intense for smaller kids riding. Not rode any of the others yet (hopefully this year), just hope it doesn’t take to much of the airtime towards the end. Guess I find out next Saturday. Link below with some nice interesting Cobra pic's http://porsmond.bravepages.com/Paultons/Paultons3/Cobra.html Ready for the The Helix of death

Some people who entered the Ride It First Comp on the Stealth mini site lucky got an email today saying they won. I entered but sadly I got nothing, but a friend who did win said I can be there as a guest. So it seems it going to open on Wednesday (15th) after all now, after these not opening till April rubbish rumours. Mini site been updated with 5 Pic's taking from the top. http://stealth.thorpepark.com/photo_diary/photo_diary.asp?css=2 Looking Down back to earth

Really the Main Parks in England Alton, Thorpe and Chessington have SRQ and that basically it no other parks I’m aware of have srq. The Best working SRQ are Inferno and Nemesis which move pretty well most of the time . Only bad thing Nemesis srq is open when busy but close when quite, Inferno is open most of the time. Chessington only have SRQ on Tomb Blaster and that’s it (not sure if there add anymore but would be nice if vampire had it ), srq used to be on Dragon’s Fury too but was removed due to the exit being clog up. (Wish that was added back thou so many empty seats now days) p.s Oblivion doesn’t have srq anymore as they remove it (no idea why thou)

Yes it was removed and gone for good, but been replaced with a new version Enterprise aka Cyclone that was at Drayton Manor.

Out of the three LIM Launch I have done Xpress, Rock 'n' Roller Coaster & California Screamin'. Liked Xpress more than Rock 'n' Roller even if RnR is 2mph fast, the acceleration seems to cut out quicker than Xpress dose. As for California Screamin' the launch is enjoyable but not as powerfull as Xpress or RnR.

Must say better than Rita's trains Only downside shame there no headrest like on Xcelerator, As I'm not looking forward for my neck being near over the headrest

Katun so goes with the stargate theme and like the detail, that gets mine vote.

I'm Coastertool, would like to be a Coastermaster near the end of the year or just tip onto Coastermonster which I can't see happing this year but can only hope.

Out of these parks below had no problems about rerideing. Thorpe Park / Chessington / Oakwood / Walibi World / Toverland / Efteling /Adventure Island / Avonturenpark Hellendoorn / Paultons Park / Pleasureland Southport / Disneyland Paris and one or two more where I can’t remember at this mon. As for Knott's, having just come back from CA, this weekend just gone had no problems about rerides on Xcelerator/Sliver Bullet/Monty/Jaguar you could just stay seated if no one was in line or move to a spare seat. Out of theses places, I couldn't get rerides. Blackpool - Many times I been, the Nash Station totally empty still wouldn't you stay on so had to walk around. Alton Towers - Unless you can count SRQ being opening on a very dead day on Nemesis and running out the exit quickly and getting in the same seat on the same train you just ridden. Normally SRQ is close on dead days so I hear, so you have to walk round each time. Tivoi Gardens - Even though there web site states no rerides allow did have a few on Dæmonen in November as the park was dead and ride op's said we could.

Last Coaster of each park of each day I visted. Sat(18th) - Xcelerator (Knott's) Sun - Ca Screamin' (Disney CA Adventure) / Matterhorn Left (Disneyland) Mon - Ca Screamin' / Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Tue - Sliver Bullet (Knott's) Wed - Xcelerator (Knott's) Thurs - Ca Screamin' / Space Mountain Fri - Xcelerator (Knott's) Sat(25th) - Freeway Coaster (Adventure City) / Sliver Bullet (Knott's)

Yes that was the Drop Tower which was inside Trocadero. Minus the 2nd Row of seats which it had before. Nice report, haven't visted for a whille, but worth going just for a really good KMG Freakout

Yay Great Britain Win a Medal, Sliver on the skeleton by Shelley Rudman. Loving The Winter Olympics This Year, been quite injoyable so far. Hope we win something again in Curling like 4 years ago.

I guessing that last photo is the exit. Looks a bit small and I’m sure won't be nice pushing pass people looking at there photos when you just want to get pass fast Here's a link that I think some Company did or help with the themeing ? http://www.dynamic3.co.uk/project.asp?ID=207

Happy Hardcore - Big In Japan

Hear it's was of the better parks in Belgium which your photos show . Was meant to go to this park last year for a whole Belgium park tour thing sadly never happen. Hopefully this year.

M.O.P - Cold As Ice

Just noticed this crazy report made me laugh a little, Robb even if it a work thing sounds you having fab time trying to pop many things before you have to go back. Hope you enjoy rest of your trip before you have to leave. Thinking of Manchester where I haven’t been for years, they still got that Museum where you walk down this Sewer with water flowing down. (Strange I know) Your local BP sounds strange having signs saying “Please Pay before Fuelling" – To many driving off without paying? p.s Looking at the photos, what the Air Horn used for then hopefully not scaring people

I'm guess your talking about Typhoon at Bobbejaanland. Haven’t ridden it myself yet till sometime this year, but going from word of mouth from friends it not a bad ride and pertly dam forceful in areas. Only bad thing I hear about it can get rough when riding in the rain.

Wasn't much in a hurry to go back to this park after visting last year, seeing I might be in Belgium again sometime this year gusse could tick this off. Coaster wise dose look quite fun and be something new for me of this type.
