Bansheeback Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 So for those of you who are saying "OMG WHERE DID IT GO", here ya go. 14 Quote
Italian Job 2005 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 https://instagram.com/p/ziS5GeuOGN/?modal=true Looks like it's getting a new lighting package, AND new LED lights! Can't wait to see how this changes Coney Mall at night, especially with WindSeeker's lights nearby. 15 Quote
kingsislandfan1972 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 2015 is going to be a great year at Kings Island, I can already feel it! 7 Quote
LordSkippy Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 That new color scheme is downright sexy. 9 Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Nice! Can't wait to see and experience the newness! 8 Quote
McSalsa Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 The new Red & White paintjob, even from just that 1 released photo, should be gorgeous. 5 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Cool! Now if there's still some way to identify which ring starts spinning first, that would be a bonus. Because the spinning while still inches from the ground is one of the best parts of the ride. 14 Quote
MantisMan Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Looks great.....one of my favorite at the park. So glad she's coming back looking like new. 7 Quote
silver2005 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Now give some LED's to Vortex and put better chaser lights on Racer and we'll have one mighty fine looking area in the back of Coney Mall. 11 Quote
Nick_Plummer Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 ^^ and bring back backwards Racer 6 Quote
Dieseltech20 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Believe it has been said at least 100 times that backwards Racer cannot be brought back.....period. Anyways. Someone be sure and get some nice pics and video of the ride this season. I won't be able to see it in person til at least 2016. 7 Quote
PKIVortex Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Love this new look, the ride will look brand new. I really missed riding Shake Rattle and Roll last season. Can't wait to see the refurbished ride back in the park, and give it a spin or two or three lol! 6 Quote
BlondyRidesOn Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 I wonder what the new "observation area" should be like. 8 Quote
Imperial79 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Wow that looks great! I can't wait! Thank you Kings Island mantaince crew for all you do, we know it's not easy to be out in the cold weather plus working in it. 12 Quote
medford Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Red & White color scheme....so my dream of having it renamed "The Big Red Machine" still stands a chance, pending approval (read $$$) of little Joe 11 Quote
zacc1993 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 This is one of my top flats at the park, so I'm very happy to see it back. It's one of the few spinny rides that I can handle. recaR ,sadly, will probably never show its face again at the park. 6 Quote
NoChickens Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I can't wait to see it back again.It is my favorite flat. Well, since the Crypt is gone,, 5 Quote
LOKJAW Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I'm going to miss the skeletons on the crapper! HAHA!!! 6 Quote
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Red & White color scheme....so my dream of having it renamed "The Big Red Machine" still stands a chance, pending approval (read $$$) of little JoeI prefer to think of this as a memorial to Fairfield high school. 4 Quote
CharleyTheDinosaur Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 I was close. I got the red and white part right at least. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/29812-whats-up-with-shake-rattle-and-roll/page-4#entry633751 2 Quote
silver2005 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 If you want an idea what the ride will look like come April, take a look at a ride at the sister park, Kings Dominion's Bad Apple. Picture courtesy of Kings Dominion. Link 8 Quote
The Interpreter Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Does it come with the ride behind it? Hopeful Terp, who likes to ask questions. 11 Quote
silver2005 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Kings Island already has a nice ride behind SR&R's spot. Or rather, 2 nice rides. 4 Quote
zacc1993 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Well we can definitely fit a third in somewhere. Any standup is good for me. 2 Quote
rcwizard13 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Kings Island General Manager, Greg Scheid, has provided us the following picture from his Twitter account: Photo taken from Greg Scheid's Twitter account. I can't wait to see her all lit up at night. 16 Quote
upstop Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Looks like a new queue/entry way as well as new concrete everywhere! Yay! Hope they didn't chop out the pine trees.... 5 Quote
APE Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 The trees right by it was one of the best things about the ride. 7 Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 I still see a pine peeking through, on the left side of the pic anyway! 4 Quote
PKIVortex Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 I knew they were a reason they chopped those old que rails down. It looks like a brand new ride and ride area. Way to go Kings Island! Quote
upstop Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 It really does look nice! It needed to be updated to ADA standards with the wider queue lines. Quote
