I have seen this ride come up on http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=574818
Theme Park Review. I am so pleased with this ride but am so sick it is so far away. This was a great little Park a family park and they stick in a lovely Intamin air time machine. Why is it that we live in a country where we don't get something as cool as this ride.
We need a airtime machine at Drayton, Chessington, any others please add.

Does look like a great coaster. Very short trains though, but great looking layout that has Airtime written all over it. I reckon Drayton Manor could easily invest in this type of ride, especially if they got rid of Shockwave.

I would agree with Shockwave. I heard that is next to go as well. Just have to shoe horn on in now.

I'm sure with some careful planning and a clever layout they could fit something as good in at Drayton.

The ride looks great, may have to plan a hop over there.

Their is a clone in Chine at Tobu Zoo called Kawasemi. It looks a little faster than Piraten. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X71fB0X2M6M

Any how I'm looking forward to trying out Piraten later in the year.

I could go along with that, what on earth were Drayton thinking of with that waste of steel.

I wish we could see something like Piraten or Maverick in this country soon, but I am not holding my breath  Sad
