Q. How long did the ride take to make and how much did it cost?

A.  Work began on the site for the ride back in June 2008 and is due for completion in March 2009 with a total investment of £13.5 million.  As Keith has outlined in his Developers Diary, the first ride column was installed on 9^th September with the full track completed on 5^th October - 27 days.  

Q. How high is it in feet and also how fast does it go?  And how long is the whole ride on for?  

A. The highest point of the ride is 100ft high and it will last for 1 minute 40 seconds.  When we carry out the testing of the ride alongside Health & Safety Engineering Consultants (HSEC) we’ll know the exact speed that the ride reaches.  

Q. What date is the ride going to open?  

A. The ride is due to open Spring 2009.  

Q.  Do all the rides have those cool cameras that take photos of you at the scariest bits?  If so will SAW -The Ride have one?  

A. Yes, the ride will have a photo point during the experience, which we’ll let you discover where it is on your first ride.  In addition to that, for the first time on a ride at THORPE PARK we are fitting a camera to the front of the ride to film your silly expressions (!) and enable you the opportunity to purchase a DVD of your experience…if you wish.
