They started painting last year around mid febuary.

With the threat of bad weather seemingly every week now there is no reason to start painting this early. I don't know why you guys are so anxious to see it, it will be there come April.

YESSS my dream come true!

For all of you who wanted updates on the new Vortex paint job; well, here you go! According to Jamie Gaffney, our Director of Maintenance and Construction, you’ll be seeing a similar paint scheme to Intimidator in 2011-look for red and grey. Here’s a picture to hold you over!

What a spectacular green.

Here's a thought! With the new paint job maybe the can rename it to "Lil Timmy" I know that would make some people **coughWeScough** squeal with delight lol!

.... *sigh* At least it is getting repainted...

[chknwing]

wow, I couldnt be any more disappointed

[TrojanCamMan]

Wow, That sucks.

[Jay]

Seriously? People are not pleased? Am I the only one who really doesn't care at all, seeing as I won't be riding it yet again this year.

Agreed with what JamminJ said. Quick...everybody to Nighthawk. People actually thought it wasn't going to be painted red? They could theme the ride to Justin Bieber or Miley Cyrus for all I care.

So much for burgandy and gold, so i guess it is going to be burgandy and silver.

Dude...get that "burgandy" color out of your head...straight from the blog, RED and SILVER.
