I forgot about SUF, V2 gives off a little bit but since it doesn't take up that much room it's harder to notice.

I'm gonna miss the green...If they want vibrant, they'll need green again. Nothing is as cool as that bright green and blue that said "WHOA" every time you looked at it.

What I meant about V2 is that it doesn't take up that much room so there's not that much color. It's just a simple U shape.

Woah! How did you get that quality at that distance?! :shock: Killer picture dude! If the loop was there, I'd use this as a wallpaper.

Bull should look awesome once they're done repainting it or touching it up or whatever they're doing to it that they said at NCC. I remember checking it out on March 18 or 19, 99 when they put the first drop up, was a sight to be seen with the vibrant colors and whatnot and such an awesome looking drop.

We should make Bull's track pink with silver rails! :shock: :lol:

Bull will look really good once it gets a nice fresh coat of paint.

So Bull is getting the same colors still just a newer coating? It will look nice once it has a fresh coating on it.

The dark sky in the background really brings out the colors of the rides.

Hmm.. I'm not sure exactly how good Black would look. The silver rails add a really nice contrast to the orange. I do think they need to darken the orange a tad bit. Right now it looks like a faded, really bright orange.

Well, with the new paint coming, I'm sure it'll look less faded.
