Here are some images from Rye this past weekend.... According to Wittingslow's new website it says that MIDNIGHT MADNESS was supposed to be there... not sure what happened.
Not the best year this year, the carnival was missing a huge aerial piece where the wheel was last year, but in other news PIRATE is finally operating AMAZINGLY, its swinging as high as some of the European models... the ride gets some serious air now, and operates very smoothy. Shame the original PIRATE sign isn't still with the ride, and the mast is "broken" that sits at the front end of the boat.
Will get a video of PIRATE in action soon...

Great photos Huss thanks mate. Looks like a decent crowd there. Pirate has definately got a hihger swing now from what I've seen of it before. Remember riding the one at Seaworld years ago and that gave a great ride, good feeling of weightlessness. How'd the Top Gun go down there?
