Don't know about that, I've got a good 6 years of extra misery over Sonic. I reckon Sonic should be Kinky Tom the 2nd. I did say we're long lost brothers  |

We looked at the queue (3 hours) and watched the ride, it was the same as the corkscres but only the first 50mph is quick so we deided to leave it!
It had a rubbish cart and looked not all that good!

looking through that website makes Alton towers look more like a kids playground.

I'd go on it. Might need some new shorts after, but I'd definately give it a go.
