Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach - Project 2015
Nooo please not an air race, get something that does't make you wish you were dead. How about a drop tower? I don't believe the Pleasure Beach has one (I know the dungeons technically do but that isn't the pleasure beach).

I like how 'Project 2015' gives away nothing, so mysterious. Maybe it's a re-theme of a current attraction?

I actually quite like air races. But then I do love a good spin and spew. That 'thing' in Finland <3

Have I really been that thick? Whoops.
If the one on Brighton Pier is anything to go by...bleugh. I suppose an air race on a lesser cycle might not be quite as bad.

I agree not much time to put in anything truly amazing now other than a flat ride. It does seem strange to be hyping it as Project 2015 if its a generic Air Race though. The only time I remember them using the 'Project' thing was for Project '94 - The Big One, and Project 2000 - Valhalla (correct me if I'm wrong); much in the same way Alton use SW. Both pretty hefty rides.
Also, didn't the PB get a decent sized loan for a new attraction from the council last year? Surely they couldn't have spent all that on the Wallace and Gromit re-theme of the Gold Mine. And food for thought - can't our German fun-fair friends stick up a ride like Teststrecke and Olympia Looping in about a week? (wishful thinking for a coaster lol!)
Only time will tell I suppose.

The image blueprints looked like a clock and a big machine.
I'm bamboozled. But a RMC to either GN or BD would be interesting.
Maybe they could actually get airtime!

As much as they need some form of modern coaster, they desperately need a flat, and funnily enough thats all that's realistic in the timeframe. I must admit I can really see the logic in them putting in an air race, they're fantastic little rides, which aren't too intense and so are relatively friendly for those who aren't into thrills. Otherwise I actually can't think what they'd get. I could see them getting something from Gerst, but after hearing how awful the sky fly's throughput is I would dread to think how awful the queues would be.
Also come on guys, if it's a coaster we all know it's going to be an aquatrax :wink:

Don't they have a habit of opening things in June onwards, though? Because, if it wasn't due to open until July, or later, then it could be something slightly bigger.
