this coaster is addicting! i was shaking in the queue but once the ride finished, i was coming back for more!
a good ride for people to begin getting used to vertical drps. i sugest going on this ride before saw (if in convenience)

Love this rollercoaster Soo much ! , i have a season ticket and have been counting , ive rode this ride approx 500 times since april.. and never get enough ... its a good ride , but like saw , numerouse rides means more roughness if you get me.. but anyways , its a good ride overall .

wow , i love speed. So far i think it is one of the best coasters i have ridden. The vertical lift hill was so relaxing but whilst you are enjoying the lie down , you can't stop worrying about whats on the other side! the drop was so much fun , really feel the drop go further than vertical. The airtime hill , omfg was brill , just flys over it , vertical loop was good , little bit rough , loved the h eartline roll and the helix at the end was superb! Overall speed is one of my favourites and i'd give it 9/10!

ashleyB2961 you don't have to be 15 to ride SAW. That's a load of balls.

This is a fun, thrilling, smooth ride (when siting in the midle). Some good hangtime on the loop and barrel role.

Wow this ride looks really awesome!! Its a shame it doesn't have theming but i suppose it don't change the experience much. That lift and first drop must be incredible! They are currently building a Gerstlauer Eurofighter at Thorpe Park for Aug09, cant wait as that more closer to home!
Oh i made a Promo Trailer for Speed, feel free to check it out at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-Cm0yXqEWw

Matt; it is common that rollercoasters miss out the theming. Take a look at Pyrenees or Superman at Madrid for example.

Fantastic ride, although I leant my lesson of not to hold on overwise the forces that this ride experiences tightens you restraint to crushing point.

I can imagine it being better in dry weather and not tipping it down. The ride experiance is great, the 97 degree drop is awesome and the airtime hill. The helix is insane. Good ride in better weather.

5/10 for the front as it's so rough 9/10 for the back which is overall a nicer experience, even though you don't get the view of the front. Overall 7/10 a good ride but too rough at the front to get a higher score.

sweet idea just abit vulgar at times with the eurofighter name you would think it would be more like a dog fighter than a stunt trip.

This is what oblivion should have been like. The inline twist could be a bit faster though.

Very good pacing and very forceful, though the forces are going in some odd directions going into the loop, so I can kinda see why some people might find it rough. Airtime hill is awesome, loop is too big for forces and too small for hangtime, though you get quite a nice view over your head at the top. Inline twist is good fun and surpringly quick, and the helix gives a very forceful moment. Very good investment by Oakwood, but the area still looks poor compared to the rest of the park.

The drop and hill are fab, despite the hill not fitting with the coaster type.I just wish it hit the brakes after this, as the ride goes horribly wrong and vulgar.

Drop, awesome. Airtime hill, awesome. The rest? Dire.More bad points than good, unfortunetly.

Rough, painful restraints, short ride and generally a crap layout. Speed has nothing that appeals except the first drop but that doesn't make up for a horrendous ride
