CoastersRZ Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 They are simply still working on the track work for The Racer and shoveling off the snow so that they can continue the work. This is a standard off season maintenance practice on wood coasters. I doubt it relates to the tweets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB1 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 It just all lines up too much for me. Remember way back when CF bought KI? They said they would bring it back to the old KI, which wouldn't that be repainting The Racers tracks red? When KIGM posts a red renovation coming, what could it be, Son of Diamondback, a red dinosaur? Then in a matter of days bring up a photo of The Racers tracks being shoveled off, when they could post any other photo of them doing track work on other rides, but it is just The Racer? It all just points to The Racers getting the TLC they need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrypt Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I think I got it. It's a complete overhaul of Adventure Express's theming, isn't it? Ah, wishful thinking... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortexfan Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 A new evac platform for WindSeeker? "Now experience ride malfunctions with 70% less sunburn!" 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Now now. Kings Island`s WindSeeker was never stuck that long. Are there any rides that are in need of a paint job (besides the aforementioned Racer)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I doubt they have enough time to start repainting 2 coasters. Plus didn't someone once say on here that painting The Racers would be harder than expected because of the type of paint that was used the last time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Most of the paint in the areas that were painted red and blue is long since gone. The handrails were originally painted blue and the track was red. Wouldn`t be that hard to paint. But I doubt that is what the tweets were hinting at anyway. And I didn`t say what other coaster was in need of repainting, simply are there any rides that need a refresher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voicetek Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Maybe putting the animatronic Indians back in during the train ride? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoaster Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 What about a red addition to Planet Snoopy like a gigantic red dog bounce house, something similar like other Cedar Fair parks have had? But this would be designed as a dog house? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Red Streak? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick00 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I could see them returning The Racer into its old paint job. Cedar Fair has been doing a lot of painting this off season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 It's suppost to be new, so I doubt KI is repainting racer back to its original colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndyGuy4KI Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Red paint on the former (just a guess) Stunt Crew Grille. This is where I thought this new item might go. Time will tell! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdawg1998 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Maybe everything in Action Zone will be painted red and be renamed to "Red Zone" with the 2014 attraction being Red Streak, with everything also being painted red. Sounds like a great plan to me! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekidd33 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 ^I think Kinzel took all the red paint with him when he left. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBEASTunchained Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I think it will be something to do with "Dinosaurs Alive!" most likely, because Greg and Don were posting quite a few photos of DA today........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIfan73 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Yeah but a major renovation of something so new? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 DA is getting a new scene this season. The reason why I know this is because when people could post pictures on Facebook, someone posted a pic of DA saying how much they loved it. KI commented saying that there would be a new scene for the 2013 season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AintNutinElse2Do Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Renovating a building to use for the new show "I Saw Red" a tribute to Sublime. Nah not really my guess is that it will have something to do with live entertainment though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Nemo Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Did I mention this is a major renovation? From Gregs Twitter With all the things that are being renovated in Action Zone (Thunder Ally and SOB being removed, and the Tower leaving) I think it is safe to say that what ever Greg is talking about to is going to be in AZ, and the only red thing in AZ is Stunt Crew Grill. So I think it is pretty accurate to say that is what he is alluding to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB1 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Well, I think it's ironic how he used what I just posted a few moments ago, Allusions, now found in your local twitter. This brings me to think that we may get a Intimidator 305, but that can be considered in many other ways as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
