Here's a quick look at Thorpe's promising future, from Thorpe Park's Medium Term Development Plan, submitted on 20th August 2003. This plan was to show what Thorpe Park proposed for 2004-2008, containing only guidelines. Below is a quick outline of what was proposed - text in blue did not actually go ahead at that time:

2004:

• Mondial Topscan to replace Calgary Stampede (Samurai)
• New Arena Show
• Building extentions to increase Park capacity
• Peak Season Lake Show
• Filling in of lakes to start

2005:

• Two new thrill rides to be added (Slammer and Rush)
• Installation of 2nd Detonator tower
• Widening of entrance bridge

2007:
