^From all info that has been collected, it is likely going to be a wing-rider. :x
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

'Unfortunately'?

Not in any way is it a bad thing that Dollywood are getting the same... It won't cause any issue with Thorpe's so I don't see what the problem is...
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

NO there is nothing wrong with dollywood getting one i also heard from screamscape its roumoured that cedar point may be getting one for 2013 "sorry if that was off topic"
Its the track for dollywood though not thorpe park, thorpe parks track is not due to arrive until august
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

I heard that B&M Wingriders were only for merlin parks at the moment

^Be careful what you write ok. I don't like people calling me things like that. I just want to know these things, because I want to create my own coaster business, and also for workexperience with them. Any, we are all coaster enthusiasts, maybe i may be abit over the top, i admit. Nothing bad in that, so don't call me a dumbass.

P.S. I'm not a thorpe park fanboy.

^ Not to be nasty, but, good luck with that. It's extremely competitive to get into the coaster industry. Try something smaller like, I don't know, working as a ride-op or something. It's the closest you're going to get to being in the coaster industry...

^I'm partnering up with my friend who wants to be a film director and own a studio. We have both agreed to help, and of course i won't jump in instantly. I have read some books, like Sir James Dyson and how he started, and other things like that. And one other thing that would interest you peeps. A event called IAAPA where I will try and do work experience with the manufacturers. This will be my last OFF-TOPIC post. I promise that.

Right, I've had enough of this. If and when some real news happens, please PM a mod. In the meantime, I'm locking this as its doing my head in and not getting us anywhere.

PS. Here's some pics apparently taken yesterday. As far as I can see, the only thing that's new is a cement mixer.

Move along, nothing to see here
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

I can 100% confirm that track has not arrived.

This will be unlocked tomorrow. It's already been locked once before, so please try to calm down.

If anybody wishes to discuss anything outside of LC12 then please use the other forums to do so.

The way I look at it is that there is NO NEWS to report. It's diggers, cement and MUD. Until there are visible footers, then there's not much to talk about. It will open in March ad we'll know a little more next month.
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

What do you think will happen in the park itself on 1 August, Ian (or anyone else)?
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

Nothing much will be happening at the park on 1st August, the activity will be 99% online. And even then I can't tell you what it is. Not because I know and can't say, but because I don't know!

Personally I think they'll reveal the name.
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

Yeah, I agree. Looking back to Saw, all the viral stuff built up to Friday 13th October. If my memory serves me correctly, when that finally came, they basically just released a press release stating the name and theme. It might've also been the day they properly launched the microsite, but I can't remember.

On 1st August, I'd expect a press release stating the name, plus a few more pages to be added to the lc12.net microsite

And about 10 extra pages to this topic with everybody saying it's a **** name :roll:

Please, please, please do not spend the next few weeks posting "I think the name will be..." because nobody knows and it's pointless.

We shall find out on 1st August.
 
Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012

What were the Saw viral ads?
Were they the red box videos or am I thinking of something else?
