Speed and Saw

[dominoes]

We all know that you like speed at oakwood alot, but how do you think saw compares, and where could it be improved?

Well as someone who hasn't rode either of these two eurofighters, my opinion is that of an online viewer!

 

But..... Speed looks very average as far as rollercoasters go - It sits in a field/dirt heap but is still a eurofighter so is fun!

Saw on the other hand has theming - Indoor section, big iron thing at the bottom of the drop and a cool cop car in the queue. As far as the layout is concerned they are both a bit different.

 

So....I would assume that Saw packs in a bit more of everything!

I think they're both very different and fantastic rides. Saw got a lot of negative attention from the British enthusiasts when it debuted and I didn't have the highest expectations but it was awesome! Really liked the 'show' elements!

 

Speed has fantastic airtime and a super fast paced layout.

Just want to give my 2 cents worth

 

Speed - Well paced with patches of awesome airtime, Never had a queue line longer than 20 minutes the times I have there.

 

Saw - Rough, quite often gives me a headache after riding, Unreliable had much down time. The in-line roll is my favourite part of the ride. Always has long queues.

It's rough!?!? I thought it was quite good, and the airtime hill on saw is really good. And you can by a video to take home that face

I have been on both and I find that the pacing on Speed is impeccable; however, the actual ride itself leaves a lot to be desired. I really like Saw, but overall, Speed is better.

I have found it rough numerous times I have been on it, both last year & also this year.

A couple of my visits to Thorpe Park, Saw has been fine and quite smooth.

Both of these are great rides!

 

I found Saw to be rough *on certain cars* especially through the cobra roll? Is there even a cobra roll, or did the head banging cause me to imagine it?

[larrygator]

I find all Eurofighters to be a letter rough with the restraints banging the side of my head and neck.

 

Speed is a nicely paced ride, probably my favorite pacing on a Eurofighter.

Saw has great theming, but noticeable rougher especially in certain cars.

 

I can't remember was Saw one of the Eurofighter's where the front row is actually a lot rougher than the back row. I think Mystery Mine is the only other Eurofighter where I experienced that.

SAW - The ride does not have a Cobra roll, it has an Immelman loop. I have yet to ride Speed but I think SAW - The ride is amazing. It has some of the best theming in the UK and has a pretty intense layout. It is a bit rough at the bottom of the 100 degree drop but having ridden the Manhatten Express at the NY NY Hotel in Las Vegas, I think it is safe to assume that it is as smooth a a baby's bottom in comparison .
