March 23, 201610 yr Aha! Thanks. I expected the copy link option to be under the share options like most every other app. Facebook Inc. wants to keep users within its walled garden.
March 23, 201610 yr I actually like the train colors, they look cool. However, one would think at least one train would be red as Storm Chaser's rails are red.
March 23, 201610 yr I think the coaster and the trains look great. I'm just so happy to see a really fun looking RMC close to home!
March 23, 201610 yr Kentucky Kingdom just posted a picture on their Facebook of the second train. It is the same purple color I had imagined for the rails lol.
March 23, 201610 yr I think it's always nice to link to said photo/ article whenever possible https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1144377262263111&substory_index=0&id=150584424975738 I like this train much more.. On another note. Not sure if anyone else is aware, but the ending turn of the ride.. where there was depicted to be an outer-banked turn.. it has been replaced with another overbank instead. Must've been going too fast.
March 24, 201610 yr I really do think they look bad though haha. The color scheme just screams MS Paint to me. Luckily that's not an important part of the ride https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1144072555626915&substory_index=0&id=150584424975738 MS Paint!! AHAHAH!

On another note. Not sure if anyone else is aware, but the ending turn of the ride.. where there was depicted to be an outer-banked turn.. it has been replaced with another overbank instead. Must've been going too fast. This train really looks like it was painted from MS Paint. I like purple, but that purple seems fake if that makes sense lol.
March 24, 201610 yr Hmmm. While the track does look interesting, we have not had good experiences with the trains (restraints) from Lightning Run. I will be watching for actual ride reviews.
March 24, 201610 yr And speaking of appearances, why is it that every time I look at the logo on the train, I expect to see the tornado scribble to all of a sudden turn into the Tazmanian Devil? Regarding the colors, the purple especially, it reminds me of the colors the PAAS Easter Egg Coloring Kit dye eggs!
March 24, 201610 yr If they really want that yellow, I think they have to counteract it with a really prominent blue/ purple. Make it high contrast. I think, now that I look at it more, it's the dullness of the kiddie toy blue and purple coupled with the electric yellow, that makes it feel unbalanced.. *shrug* HahaHart was never a king at aesthetics though, was he?... Or park cohesiveness hehe
March 24, 201610 yr Or letting in visitors from DC when he wonders just exactly why they are there. Equal access, anyone?
March 24, 201610 yr :/ ^^^ The colors will be higher contrast in person, but they're still dull-ish. All I did was boos the saturation, since the yellow was pretty much maxed out already, it hardly changed. I think it already looks way better than what they actually are.Deeper, richer base colors to counter act the blinding yellow.
March 24, 201610 yr And, keeping the tradition going of adding attractions that the competition to the northeast doesnt have, here is a sneak peek of whats coming in 2017 (provided there is a 2017 season)....
March 24, 201610 yr It seems as if I may be the only one here who feels this way, but I happen to really like the color combos and look of the trains! They are different, as is the ride itself, from any other RMC that's out there and that seperation really sets it on its own, which quite frankly impresses me.
March 24, 201610 yr These coaster cars just scream Kentucky Kingdom. I personally don't like the purple on red rail idea, it just seems odd, i would have went with dark blue cars personally.
March 24, 201610 yr I'd have gone with grey cars and black rails, because "Storm Chaser". Purple and blue and yellow and red don't say "Storm Chaser" to me.
March 24, 201610 yr Great now I have Smooth Criminal stuck in my head. And not Michael Jackson, oh no, this: Granted it's pretty awesome!
March 24, 201610 yr Well think of it this way. If KK doesn't survive, Cedar Fair can probably pick up a cheap RMC and relocate it to a park about 100 miles Northeast.
