One more thing. Why isn’t the Black Revolver on the list of rides? It’s one of the best in the park.

I liked this Park. My ex and I went there in March; we did Alton, Drayton and Thorpe in the two weeks she came over from
panama.
Ok not as good as Alton, but good vale for money. Staff did seem a little gruff and that added to the fun fair
feel of the place.
Living on Hayling Is, I can’t help but feel this is what Fun land would like to be like.
I’d say
this is a family park. The Coaster were fun but not the thrill rides you got at the other parks. G-force and shockwave
have good ideas, but the tracks could have been better in the same amount of space. They seemed to be there for
‘novelty’ value, what with being the first stand up (shock wave) and being launched from a loop (G-Force), but clearly
lack the excitement of Nemesis (which doesn’t need novelty gimmicks to work).
The flats were good, can’t beat a pirate
ship, Maelstrom being the best.
Like I said, good value for money or as a place for a thrill junkie to take a
non-thrill junky other half.

Adrenaline-Junkie: It doesn't hold a light to Blackpool, Alton, Thorpe, Flamingo, Oakwood and even Fantasy Island. That
makes it one of the countries worse parks, even if it is better than WMSP. Stormforce isn't bad, but there are better in
the country, Drop-towers are rather common (aside the stand-up floorless, but that is torture), G-Force sucks, Maelstrom
is the only decent flat ride I suppose. I'd rather pay £30 for a wristband to go to Blackpool which is basically 3x than
Drayton.

Drayton Manor isn't as good as Oakwood. The rides at Drayton Manor are allright but I can't say anything about the
thrill rides cause I ein't been on any of them

Drayton Manor overall brilliant. went there yesterday and i loved it. Themeing isnt to good as there is all grafiti on
the walls lol. Best flsat ride is either pandemonium or apocalpse. best coaster is g force. the new bounty ( the pirate
ship ) is so unsafe. All the rides are too quick. Gr8 park but nver as good as Thorpe park which just rules !

My favorite park in the country. Just a really awesome park, with a couple of great coasters, some really good theming
in places, cheap and not very long ride waits.

A great park. Theming is not good. The only theming was for Rapids and Storm Force which isn't that good anyway. A nice
little park that might be a little too small.

Yet again it another person who lives close to this park. Me. The rollercoasters there aren't brilliant but they are
great fun! Shockwave was the first proper rollercoaster I had been on (I was 10) and probably my favourite there. The
park may be short of intense white-knuckle rollercoasters but the queues are fairly short which adds it's X-factor up
and it has the only stand-up rollercoaster in Europe, The only Stand-up rollercoaster in the World to contain a
"Zero-G-Roll", Won best children attractions a few times, The only X-car coaster in UK, The only Gyro-Swing in the world
to face outwards, the only stand-up floorless drop tower... I could go on forever. See thats why I gave it the sweet 85%
rating. ^_^

I like the rides, but Alton Towers is better looking and has a bigger selection of rides.

The perfect all round park with something for the little ones, the whole family, and the thrill seeking teenagers.

My favourite park in the U.k, also being my local park. Lots of brilliant rides with not that large Queue's.Apocalypse
is my favourite flat ride and G-force my second favourite coaster.

As my local park this is great fun. I always try to go as often as possible. Some great rides and the zoo is great too.
Kelzinferno: The Black Revolver was a walzer in the dark ride with lots of strobe lighting. It has gone now (and you
wasn't missing much anyway).

I was looking on the Drayton Mnaor Plus website and it says that there is a waltzer ride called Black revolver. Has
anyone ridden this ride? Or even seen this ride?
