Ok but how desperate you have to be to voluntarily fly from another country to go to Thorpe?

I think that CoasterMac305 finds Silver Bullet awesome because of consecutive twists without a MCBR! :)

HELL TO THE YES!

Silver Bullet is definitely one of the better Inverts I've been on, great layout, plenty of fun great twists, and a really intense helix finale!

Only thing that kills it for me is that stupid shallow first drop :(
