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

Dont believe me go to
http://www.sixflags.com pick SFGAm and click on BTR, look at where it says color in the stats, it says black and grey.
Anyone with proper eyes can tell that Batman: the Ride is dark blue. Demon is black, and is being repainted black. Vertical Velocity has muted turquoise (not blue) supports.
The Six Flags website has been inaccurate since being revamped. The Six Flags Great America info is simply copied from other park info.

Batman WAS Dark Blue. That's enough of this bickering back and forth, get back to topic so I don't have to lock this topic!

I do think that Batman will clash somewhat with V2, but there's nothing we can do about it
I just can't wait to see all the new flats, Ragin Cajun, and Batman and Demon looking all shiny and new.
Finally Coaster Season!!

I think they were going to try to remove the splotches, but I forget exactly how that was going to be done.

I went to the park today and climbed the hill to see if I could see anything and I really couldn't, so if you are planning on going to that hill to see anything I wouldn't waste your time cause it is really hard to see any of the construction going on. Now I did see Batman, they are done painting the lift, I think the yellow will look good but it will clash with V2, oh well.
This is where I would usually put stuff. Can't think of anything right now... =/

Did you ever think that they took them off because they were painting the track and they got in the way?

There is already another thread with some pictures of the paint job. However the only thing you can really see is the 1st coat near the bottom of the lift hill.
