SpeedFreak Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 I am off to Alton Towers this weekend, and I am soo excited. Although I have been like 7 times. I wanna try out the Rita Queen Of Speed ride.Does anyone else here like Alton Towers? Which ride is your fav?What other theme parks are good? Quote
Galliano Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 crealy and woodlands (southwest) are crap. never been to alton though Quote
WallaceGlanza Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Yeah I took the girlfriend down to alton a couple of years ago, we absolutely loved it,long drive in the glanza though although the roads around it are fun.Rita was good for the speed but nemesis was still the best, went on it a few times. It was good when we went as we hardly had to que for anything, I hate it when you have to wait ages to get a ride (teehee). Quote

Jozinobi Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Mate at the start of Rita, close your eyes when it takes off then open em Watch out for the 'G's in the twisties Joz Quote
scutch0 Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 rita was aweosme, but its over too soon...oblivion and nemesis are my favs... altho air was pretty good fun. Quote
paulgtt Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 We got some free tickets a few months back but couldn't get on any of the "big rides" because the ques were hour and half long! Got some more free tickets though so are going again near the end of the month.But the roads make up for not going on many rides Quote
ep91face Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Never been to any british theme parks but I've been to porta ventura in spain which was brilliant and been to florida a few times...to be honest all the disney parks are veeeery tame with no actual thrill ride that isnt replicated 10 times scarier in universal islands of adventure or busch gardens easily the 2 best parks over there!...funnily enough seaworld has 2 of the most exciting and scary rides in orlando and im not talkin about being pushed into a shark tank:P Quote
kaylee Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 not been for a while, but i love alton towers but its crap when its a weekend or a school hoilday cause its too packed!! i think rita is a bit crap, over to quick and it just opened when i last went and wasnt worth queqing up for an hour and a half for it! was ok tho.

Nicola Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 there's a couple on the forum actually and one of my cousins mate has one too. He gave me the inspiration to start with! Quote
shelly_star Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 Went a couple of months ago, best ride there is probably Oblivion, i didnt go on rita because i will die from heart attack, because i have been on Stealth at Thorpe park and that fricking killed me lol.Anyone been to Thorpe Park??!! it's down south of england, Alton towers is about just over 2hour and half for us, Thorpe park is like 30mins away http://www.thorpepark.com/rides-thrillseekers.php Quote
Nicola Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 A couple of m friends went yesterday and they said Oblivion was shut due to alot of water in the bottom of the drop lol! Quote
Nicola Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 I didnt go on rita because i will die from heart attackHey! It looks fast but its actually not that fast when your on it, I have been on it many of times, Oblivion is faster believe it or not I reckon! Quote
