Nothing has been confirmed by Thorpe, so far as I am aware. But it does seem likely.
Thorpe Park - SAW: The Ride
Ah fair enough, I thought they might of come out and confirmed it. Let the guessing games continue then..

I think Thorpe park are trying to take the crown of being secretive and having decent coasters added. People will argue which is better... Rita or Stealth etc... but in peoples eyes when they see videos or see it over the internet... Stealth looks better to people alllll over the World. Hence people from Theme Park review and so on go... so maybe Thorpe are trying to do what Alton Towers used to do ... keep very quiet and secretive... then blast us with a decent new coaster.... we will have to wait and see.

IF it is what they say, a 4D or a Flyer... i wont be too disappointed, a 4D would be AMAZING!! oof ive never ridden one of them before, i'd feel honoured to live in a small country that has one and if it were a flyer i'd still be quite happy, i think it'd take a similar turn as Tatsu at SFMM just maybe not as extreme.
Either way... i cant wait

I thought X was amazing. I rate it the best coaster I've been on - they have this sense of 'immense' about them that would be hard to match. One of those down the valley, however infeasble and frankly impossible, would be amazing.

Why do people always say this? I actually think it's a good looking ride and it's the first ride you see as you come into the park. It's also amazing...Of course because it gets a tad bumpy it's rough as hell and the lawsuits must be filedReally? they look really fun... well at least Eejanaika does, X just looks UUUUUGLY!

My sister rode X a couple of weeks ago at SFMM on A San Diago trip with her explorer group, she said it was to short, dizzying (made up word i know) and painfull.
Would fit thorpe park then lol 8)
(Joke, I like thorpe park but I just think they have too many flats that make you sick.)

Best bit about the floorless is the floor mechanism in the station, there not that special although Kraken is an immense ride

Yeah won't be any point if they can't do anything interesting with it.
Still don't understand the whole 200ft rule thingy. 1 exception. Surely that changes everything though . If you've broke 200ft you aint gonna break it again .

Bloody England and its silly rules! What height can they build up to? Also what height can Alton build upto before and after they have to start painting their rides green? Any hoo I'm not particularly that bothered what sort of coaster it will be, as long as it's got wheels, runs on a track and is scary and makes me scream like a little girl, I'll be as happy as Larry!
