We are pleased to bring an early Christmas present for Thorpe Park fans, our latest update shows more of Saw's theming, part of the outside queue-line and how CCR re-construction has gone. Enjoy!

In our latest on-site update we show you the new "Head Chopper" theming element which has recently been installed on the ride, which relates to the concept art released previously.

In our latest on-site update you can see some unique shots of twisting turning track behind Samurai, along with shots from one of the brake runs!

Work is now continuing on the Stations cladding work, along with electrical installations at the ride.

Now work will focus on the rides electrical systems, as well as the station building, which a lot of the frame work has already been constructed. Many thanks to THORPE PARK for the update.

Many thanks to THORPE PARK for the update.

The final parts were lifted into place this afternoon, transforming Thorpes skyline once again. The 97 degree drop is expected to allow the cars to reach speeds of over 50mph.

This time we see the progress on the main vertical lift hill and the 100 degree beyond vertical drop! Thank-you to Thorpe Park for this update.

Disclaimer: It's very dangerous to enter construction sites, these pictures have been supplied by Thorpe Park.

Along with this, more track has been completed leading out of the inline twist which will be in the main building. Also visible in pictures, is what looks like the start of the huge station framework is being constructed.

Many thanks to SilPho for the update.

Thanks to Matt for the update!

The photos show the track up close and personal as well as in depth look onto the construction site. We can see what will eventually be the bottom of the lift hill, lifting pieces into place, the lift hill motor, and an assortment of other track goodness. Take a look below.

On the 13th of August, a shocking development was made on the development site of Thorpes new roller coaster, involving a metallic box, and the disappearance of blue prints for the ride. The source and the contents of the box is currently unknown, but an internal investigation was immediately implemented. We cannot disclose details of the device activated when the box was opened, however a number of items were found inside, a key, a photo of an unknown individual, and this note:

You have until the 13th of October to prepare yourself until I pull back the curtain and reveal the nightmare. Your time is running out.

See the video for yourself on the parks official YouTube account ]]> Sat, 13 Sep 2008 03:43:45 -0700 http://projectdylan.co.uk/Construction/91 Today the Zero G section of Project Dylan has been completed. It's taken only 3 days to erect what you see so far.

Next up, the loop! Thanks James for the pictures!

The rides first drop is in place which is an almost vertical plunge into a huge trench round a bend into a break run. Station track is also being erected.

The video is titled "Discovery" and starts with a wide shot of the park skyline, before sharply flicking to what appears to be a man covered in blood stains. The video then proceeds to construction site workers going about there day, until one of them discovers a red box buried in the ground, with 13 scratched into the lid. The construction worker opens the box, only to yelp and jump back, which the screen then cuts out. The date 13.09.08 appears, whilst in the background screams can be heard "Jim!", etc.
