Yay, I love them. So cute. <3

 

[Hutch]

Honestly can't wait to ride this. These are so much fun.

 

[Antinos]

Yeah we're going to have a blast on this little guy in July.

The ride's track is completely finished. Testing will likely start within the next week or two. Photos by Mark Brunner on Facebook:-

This ride looks like a mini Voyage. I love it!

Two observations there:

1. The turn after the first hill looks hellishly tight given the speed the train is likely to have! I think this is a perspective trick in the photo, mind.
2. That return leg looks great!

Isn't it supposedly opening on 17th April? In which case, testing will need to start very soon. The ride looks like a phenomenal family coaster, however!

^Mine Blower only started testing like a week before it opened, so it will probably still be ok.

Where did April 17th come from anyway? The press-kit confirmed April 28th as the opening:-

The structure is very pretty, shame the location is a bit gross lol.

 

[Snoo]

I quite like it. Yummy!

 

[Jcoasters]

Yeah, I think it looks cool.

This thing is gonna have some shockingly good airtime me thinks. 3 great airtime machines in one park?

And ****ing T3...

I mean, I'm not totally familiar with Thunder Run but will that not also have airtime?

I didn’t realise how incredibly short this ride is.
It still looks like an excellent family coaster though and great addition. The return leg definitely looks like the highlight of the coaster!

In a word: No.

In several words: No, it's rubbish.

It's longer in track length than both OWT and Roar-O-Saurus. That triple down on the return leg looks very nice though!

I liked it. You are a spoiled brat Matt

I mean, you're not wrong. But that doesn't make Thunder Run any good...

It's not exactly pushing Storm Chaser for the best ride in the park but it's not crap, a decent enough middle of the road ride in the park imo.

You are just so damn hard to please
