You do know that picture was posted on the first page don't you?

Also the layout that was posted above isn't the layout anymore. They took out an inversion and replaced it with an air time hill. It looks much funner now!

IMO airtime hills are always better than inversions. I can't wait to see some vertical construction.

Maybe Thorpe Park thought a dive loop is 2 extreme for the English public :b
