I agree and if they did remove Enterprise, then I think the site would be perfect for an S&S Mumbo Jumbo ride.

I'd live this, but not in x-sector on the site on sonic

The Alton Towers Resort have stated on Twitter that the empty space left by Submission's removal will be redeveloped in the future. What would you like to see in its place?

It's good to see there's plans for a replacement.

I think it would seem a bit odd if the space wasn't used for a new thrill ride considering X Sector's target audience. Personally, I would love to see something new and unique to the UK coming to the park. A ride from KMG would be good (providing it isn't too tall, obviously) and I would actually like to see Merlin and KMG collaborate on something completely fresh that we've never seen before. KMG always seem to be thinking of new, crazy and wacky flat ride ideas that are actually quite enjoyable.

I guess only time will tell. Realistically, I can a cheap flat coming to the park. A Zamperla AirRace immediately springs to mind. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long before we have a new attraction in the area that we can experience!

I can't see them copying Drayton Manor and having a Air race ride.

So I know this will never happen but I would love a Zierer Starshape like Danters Air!

KMG Experience would be fun!
As long as there is Imagination in the World, there will be bigger, better rides!

Exactly what I was going to say!! It would fit in the space nicely, although it doesn't have a particularly big capacity (maybe that could be changed though).

Unless I am much mistaken, AT has never had a KMG before, so it would be brilliant. I would like to see a company recreate the old Chaos fairground ride (similar to Enterprise but then goes completely crazy), which could then replace Enterprise. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing a KMG Sicko replacing The Blade (although given that The Blade is for a larger variety of ages it may be unlikely to see something too big there).

I wouldnt get your hopes up on that area. It is definitely the spot for a tall flat ride but it cant be loud so no S&S screamin swing.

It certainly means something is almost definitely going in that space, whether it be for 2015 or 2016, and what it is is a mystery.

Still, that is interesting information!

Guys. I can see I to the future. We will be expecting a brand new ride in the old site of Submission. You see, normally an old lady with a crystal ball would charge you about £50 for that reading. Me. I gave it to you for free! But if you keep reading in I'm going to have to charge you £82948284726263647620183 because I'm expensive like that! :D

Luckily I stopped reading in time, but I can predict numbers I have not yet read. I reckon you charge approximately £82948284726263647620182 ?

If Ripsaw is going soon, I could see a thrilling flat going somewhere, even if not here. That would be good, and Ripsaw would need a suitable replacement. There may be no space on the Ripsaw site if there is a new roller coaster around there.

Posted this in the drayton manor thread earlier, and was posted on TPR.

This flat would be a nice replacement as it doesn't need much height.

This concept is pretty much the same as the above but each arm gains some height. With decent theming and looks this could quite nicely fit into x-sector.

The second link isn't working. I'm only my iPad if that helps, it must be one of those non-iPad friendly websites. o(`ω´ )o

Reminds me of KMG's Experience, but with a Twist (quite literally).
