Just thought I'd post a link to this TR.  There's some really awesome pictures in it.

I was going to post the link as well, but I ran out of time before going to work.  Those pictures are awesome.  GASM never looked so good.

No offense to the Rollunatics of Thunder, but RT is probably the ugliest ride we have in our park.

Mind you we do have 4 B&M's, the sexiest peice of wood on the planet, a freshly painted Dueler and Arrow looper and a lovely green giant. So its hard to compete with that.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I like RT because it is reliable, easy to reride and it's fun.

I like to count the termites chewing on the lift-hill ;), JUST KIDDING!!!!!

All it needs really is a coat of oil and a coat of paint and that ride is brand new practically....After all it is technically our own racing coaster (Chiller is dueling, both sides are not dispatched simultainously(sp?))

I wasn't sure if anyone here would get that, I'm glad you did. And no, I doubt she's willing to share :)

Dude...it just got painted like a year or two ago.

It looks pretty fresh...just painted woodies are pretty ugly. If it was natural wood that would be nice.

If it was natural wood, people would think Rolling Thunder is part of El Toro.  ::)

I did know you were called RT, but I never knew why.  Care to explain?  Is that your middle initial or are you just a big fan of Rolling Thunder?  :)

It was a FF thing... Ed thought it up. There were so many Rob's on the board, we made me RT, my initials, minus the last name.
