    As we all know theres a couple of projects going on at the park for this season, Hurricane Harbor and Whistle stop park. I have heard a few rumors of other projects going on and as of now they are not confirmed but as soon as we get confirmation we will post them. I know everyone is going to be very happy about 1 of the projects. ;)

    I heard rumor of Great Adventure's trains being stripped of the audio, and getting seats back over this winter, so I guess anything is possible...

    Same here. But, I mean, what are the chances of them doing it? :?: :?:

    I could see them ditching the audio, imagine all the coaster con attendees getting static in their ears :D. It would fall down from #2 lol

    I honestly like the audio. It would be great to see an audio track that goes well with the theming but the music got you pretty hyped up for the ride on the lift hill. I would say to restore it and bring back the flame for this year but that's just my opinion.
    An educated guest would be thunderbolt, bizarro and pandy renovation for the year.

    Pandy's paint is fine minus the fading. There isn't enough reason to paint it right now.

    ^ well there ya go...I guess it wont be paint for Pandy..
    And yes there is enough reason to paint it. It looks like crap all faded. Its small. And it would be easier and cheaper to paint than Thunderbolt.

    I hope they take out the audio because I am so sick of reading and hearing complaints about it

    Pandy looks terrible right now, it is definitely the worst looking ride in the park right now. It totally needs paint :lol:

    What I am saying is that other than it looking disgusting, there is absolutely no reason for Six Flags to spend the money on painting it. The track isn't rusting. The paint is still protecting it. There is more to why a coaster needs paint than it starting to look bad.

    I was up in the area today and stopped to see what is going on. The park is in full swing with lots of work going on all over the park. I really didnt take many pics because i didn't have the time to, but i'm going to try to get back up there for this weekend. I did see alot of concrete trucks pulling in and out of the park and they are pouring crete in the HH expansion. Theres also alot of work going on in the all new Whistle Stop park! :lol: As we have all heard they are removing Catapult and have half of 1 tower down and were taking down half of the other(pics coming soon as i have to upload them). I will be posting more info and pics this weekend. It amazes me how they can totally change the park from year to year, and its one of the reasons i think SFNE is one of the chains best parks. :D

    Well if it looks like a pile of crap (which it does). They should paint it to make the area nicer looking and the ride more appealing like a proper park would do.

    It's not just SFNE. Best example I can give is the Hulk. I'm sure Mr. Six can back me up on this. It was finally repainted last year (or maybe the year before) when the track started to corrode and rust. That is when parks decide to paint their attractions. They don't care if it looks like crap. There isn't enough reason to warrant a paint job.
