Someone on here posted a real bad pic of the rust on Universal's facebook. I hope they recongize the problem.

Thank you, here is the link,http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.ph...ll&subj=90867402851&aid=-1&id=100000488536033. It is the same pic as above but without the fog effect on.
As you can see RocknRoller I'm in the same group as you.
This ride used to be the crown jewel of the whole park. First ever launched lift hill, worlds highest inversion, 65 mph, 7 inversions total, hollow tracks for the Hulks roar.....And now everytime I go I look at it and hang my head in shame at how ugly it has gotten......but still a great ride :smiley:
I'm praying(but not keeping much hope) something will happen with Hulk by July 23rd. I'm bringing a bunch of newbies to the park and I'd love for everything to be in top shape.
As of now Hulk seems to be the only thing lagging behind...
Guys great news I asked a hulk team member when hulk will get repainted and he seaid when potter opens, and when I left IOA at closing they were draining the cement ariea where the cobra roll and loop are.

How do you know he's wrong?They drain it every night for inspections...and the TM is not correct. Hopefully by the end of the year...
I have absolutely no knowledge based in fact or rumor, but why the heck would you paint a premier attraction the same week you will have probably the highest guest traffic since the park opened? It makes absolutely no sense at all to paint it then. I assume they'd have to close it down a few days at least, not sure if you can paint overnight and it be dry enough to operate the next morning though? If they haven't painted it yet, which they certainly should have, I would guess they won't paint it until off season in the fall, maybe late August/early September before HHN crowds start.

I dont know if he's right but all he told me was that they waited to repaint hulk becuase hulk was the parks major attraction so there waiting for potter to open so potter attracts more pepole and hulk will become less popular and more pepole will go to potter thats all he told me I have know Ideia if he's right.
Because I know the discussion that surrounds this at UO and it has not gone to contract nor has it been decided. UO is waiting to see Potter traffic before a decision is made.
Hmmm... money must be tighter than hell right now. You are suggesting that they might not paint it for some time! Is it traffic or money or both re: WW? And why were the lifts in there a month or so ago? That is not an everyday occurrence or maintenance procedure. The back room deals here must be harsh. Was it just a rumor that everything must be ship shape in the entire park per the WW contract? Or was it a falsehood and they only wanted to put there best foot forward. Kind of like WDW is doing now.
