Thorpe Park’s 2012 coaster plans have been floating around the internet and from the looks of them, 2012 (codenamed “LC12”) will be a great year for Thorpe Park.
From the planning application for the coaster:
“The proposed ride and associated theming has been designed to provide a flythrough experience through a crash scene. The buildings will be themed with a derelict appearance and the theming objects include a crashed aeroplane and helicopter. These theming elements will be scattered across the coaster site. The theming is vital to the success of the ride and to enhance the unique ride offer at the Park.”
Although unconfirmed, many are saying that this coaster will be a Bolliger and Mabillard wingwalker coaster, similar to Raptor which is under construction at Gardaland.
Below are some of the construction plans. Check out that insane first drop/inversion!
You can see the ride’s first drop on the left, with Stealth’s tophat in the background.
Here is another view of the ride.
We will post more concrete information about this coaster as soon as it becomes available.
