Gaz Walker Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Seen it on some "fastest roller-coaster" rides prog last year. Looks awesome, when are Alton Towers going bring a copy of that here! (the new one looks tame in comparison!) Gaz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 I do not think that ride is new. It was built in 2003. Give it another 10 years and you might see it in the UK. Why should Alton towers waste $25 million when the punters are happy with spinning tea cups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 I went to Cedar Point in 2001... they have 4 of the top 5 in the world, the tallest, fastest, and longest rides in the world.. you'll only see watered down versions over here. Their Raptor ride is so much better than Nemesis although that had been quoted as the best by far in this country a few years back. I think theres more money spent on themeing the rides over here whereas in the US its all about the ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraBabe Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 I went to Alton towers at the weekend and went on the new ride...... its called rita queen of speed and it does 100mph in 2.5 secs and its wicked you have to wait for your intestines to catch up, we waited in line for about an hour and a half for a 20 sec ride but it was well worth the wait. it was fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
