Adventure Island

Wow this might actually be a completed track by the weekend! Looks very impressive for a compact coaster, would love to try and get across to Southend at some point soon

[Ash]

Looks a great coaster, shows what can be done with space and on the cheap aswell!

[Hurri]

I suspect the track will be finished by the end of the day...

Wow, it looks brilliant, much better than I expected. The pink and yellow has even grew on me

[Ash]

Ace

Certainly looks intense

[AstroDan]

Looks like Kanonen a bit - cool anyway.

Would be rather an effort to go there just for that, but maybe I will at some point - who knows.

[Phil]

Looks very nice indeed. Like AstroDan, it is too far for me to drive just to go on that but if i'm ever in the vicinity i will certainly go and have a ride.

[John]

They're certainly not wasting any time with Rage, the track is now complete:

It looks like it could be an amazing ride, though possibly a little too short.

Update, control box and cars arrive!
I think the colours and everything on the cars are amazing!

[Nick]

Looks amazing. They can get the pull through done near enough immediately probably and a few weeks of intensive testing will see it open in early February i'm guessing

[iriderides101]

Wow! the restraints are different because they have seat belts however i swear i heard that speed was gettin belts. Isn't this coaster a travleing verison?

[Nick]

Its classed as a non-permanent structure to avoid local planning constraints

[Dr Pop Rocket]

Update!

Lets hope the weather calms down so testing can start tommorow, I must say this thing looks very impressive, I cannot wait to ride this now!

[Nick]

I think it will be no time at all untill the ride opens! Is the park open or closed?

At the moment it is only open weekends.

[Nick]

I reckon we could see this open virtually anytime soon! Even if its just a soft opening until the park opens fully, good opportunity to get the ride run in

[TenZero]

Hopefully it'll open sometime in half term

[Nick]

Here is Rage during testing

good video looks like a good ride

If I'm honest, it doesn't look as good as Speed. It misses out the massive bunny hop hill which gives you some great airtime.

Still, it's a Eurofighter and they officially rock, I love how instead of tilting you over the edge like Oblivion does, it just happily careens over the edge at a consistent speed - makes a nice change and is quite scary! Looking forward to riding it!
