Simple, choose which is your favourite, i personally prefer X No Way Out but it is a great shame Alton are getting rid of Black Hole

I'm going to be controversial and go for No Way Out as well. I thought it gave the better ride, but I did get very frustrated with the block brakes every few metres, where were stopped around 30 seconds for no apparent reason. However, what No Way Out offered in between these irritating interjections was in my eyes superior to Black Hole's ride - I know which I'd pick if I had the choice at the moment.

There's no choice whatsoever here, X:/No Way Out is more painful than a hernia. Even though Black Hole is gone I'd still rather stand in it's empty tent for two minutes than ride XNWO.

I agree with Richard, x backslash colon no way out is a terrible ride, you spend too long dicking about on the brake runs for my liking, the ride would be much better if it just flowed continuously, modifications permitting ofcourse :)

Black Hole definitely, this ride ruled, such a shame another Schwarzkopf had to close :-( it was a nice smooth fun little ride imo and with it's spiraling lift, I was totally gobsmacked first time I went on it. Now that XNWO doesn't have the multi coloured lights, what more can I say :-( !!!

I don't get it. It was attitudes like this that almost put me off riding, and when I did, my expectations were low. It didn't take me long to realise how underated this ride is :roll:

I personally think X:/ No Way Out offers a great ride experiance and Thorpe wouldn't be the same without it. However Black Hole gets my vote, I was so shocked by the intensity of the first drop when i rode it for the first time, I love the noise it makes too, and the feeling of insecurity as you ride (rode) it.

I think the Black Hole. It is a decent ride. And X:/ No Way Out is so annoying when it stops every 15 seconds!

X No Way out even if it does scare the tits off me!

Chris will tell you I literally screamed when it stopped the first time.

Black hole is ok but not as good!

XNWO Could be made better so easily, its a waste of space and Black Hole really is a legend of a ride and much better overall experience. Black Hole gets my vote!

While Black Hole does seem to be a legend, I never really enjoyed it, and disliked the cars, so my vote goes to XNWO.

I disliked both of them, but Blackhole at least kept the pace up. X just stops as soon as there's a chance you might start enjoying it.

So Blackhole out for me (comparing diseases)...

Black Hole was a Schwarzkopf, which automatically makes it significant.
As for the cars, they were classics!
