Re: New "world's first" coaster at Alton Towers 2013
Let me explain further, a new black hole esque ride, larger, new buildings and a continuation of the x sector theme.

Thorpe have the world first fully backwards coaster, so why not have a fully sideways coaster?
It's a rubbish gimmick that qualifies for a world first and the GP will love it!

At £15 million? You would have to factor the land price into it for something like that to exceed £15 million.

^^It wouldn't be a world's first though.
Joypolis in Tokyo had a sideways coaster until they converted it into a spinner a few years ago. Guess why it was converted? Because it was s**te.

It's been converted so it is still a world only, which in GP eye's is world first.

I'm thinking this may be sw7, John wardley was spotted recently with height balloons, and this quite large area with plans for a new coaster for there and nwlb, add to that another if this isn't sw7, that would be too much money spent in a short period for alton. I still reckon this is sw7.

I knew it wasn't going to happen all along. Just a joke.

If this info is related to SW7, it's not going to be an indoors coaster simply because that's far too small for a major investment.
Why would you take down a structure to put one back up again, requiring new planning application? If they were going to build something similar to black hole, IE indoors, they would build it in that tent.blivvies biggest fan said:

^ Well that really contributed didn't it. Anyway, if it is sw7 it would have to be very quiet... Which is leading me to believe it is indoor.
