Repaintings?

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

if you want to get real technical there is painted steel on Viper that used to blend in seemlessly back when it was all new wood, but now is overly obvious and slightly rusty, could paint that stuff :)
Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder
Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping
Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073

Dude, that was seriously gross. You never washed your hands before lunch. AND WE PUT A FREAKIN' SINK OUT THERE!

Anyways, there are no rides scheduled for any large-scale painting projects this year.
YOU ARE A FAILURE AT LIFE!

Yea use the sink mother!!! I know you know this but eating a cheeseburger after getting your hands and arms soaked in gas makes that burger taste a million times better!! Washing your hands multiple times doesn’t help…

The V2 should be painted Blue for the track and white for the supports. just because i kinda lame that we have 3 yellow coasters next to each other. it's almost like the painters got lazy and didn't feel like changin colors lol :lol:

I agree, 3 yellow coasters in a row is odd. I say put B:TR back to all black, leave v2 yellow, and make RC, uh, uh, something else? Ohoh, no keep RC yellow and make v2 what you said ^^

^Batman looks good in yellow, so I think a green and purple Ragin Cajun would be a Ragin good paint job and I would like a dark orange on V2...i don't know why, but i always have.

SFGAm needs something painted blue, since Shockwave left there's no really blue rides except for Orbit , V2 Supports, Batman Supports (though they look more black from a distance), and Fling.

Vu is blue, SUF has blue, AE has blue, there is a bunch of blue in HH, Revy has blue. There is plenty of blue in the park.
