- Progress continues on the Xcelerator repaint at Knott's Berry Farm. The park as opted for multiple colors on this repaint instead of repainting to the original colors as we initially thought.
Thank You so much for watching and please comment your thoughts on the repaint down below!
I welcome the paint change on Xcelerator....just like Tatsu at Magic Mountain. Only thing I'd like to see for the flame colors to really POP is if the supports are painted a sharp dark/navy blue color. I feel that the teal color will drown out the colors on the track, and will still blend in with the teal tracks on Hangtime nearby.
Agree they should be black if anything or navy blue
That's going to look really cool.
The pink color looked real good
looks nice but the pinky colour is my favourite still
I love the new colors on Xcelerator it looks AMAZING 👍👍👍
It’s cool but the support beams need to be darker, the teal is too bright that it takes away from the track
Definitely preferred the darker teal supports. Not a fan of the gray but the orange/yellow/red looks good!
Compared to most enthusiasts, I’m usually pretty indifferent to color schemes, but I *love* this one!
It looks more like it did on opening than it did before the recolor
like it but wish the support beams were black or dark grey
i thought the same thing that the color transition wont really be noticeable going top speed, but 🤔 neat idea. i like the yellow-red ombre a lot better than the asphault color track. i welcome the change for all the socal coasters though! more colors always good
The only thing I dislike about this new repaint is the supports. I think they should be a light grey
I honestly love it. I would not change it one bit.
I think it looks amazing!
Eh, I prefer pink.
what the hell have they done
So that is why there were so many different colours in the repaint. The track may look good but it looks strange against the support structure. They should repaint that too and it’d be perfect.
I'm sure it's supposed to give a certain effect while on ride
Paint jobs are only as good as you make them out to be. If it looks good it looks good and vice versa.
I preferred the old colors
As a person who has been to Knott’s Berry Farm and has been on this coaster, I find this repaint to be on FIRE. This looks freakin’ awesome.
I think the gray looks weird because they didn't paint a transition into the yellow. There's a stark line where the track suddenly changes color so the concept of the ride heating up and cooling down isn't present. They do it for the yellow and the orange, and orange into red and back, which looks great. The yellow sections are far too short as is. Extending the full yellow paint with a better gradient change with the gray sections would look way better.
Dude I went on this ride one time when it was being repainted the day later my friend texted me he was going to knott’s berry farm and I told him you go on on xcelerator? And he said it was closed and it was due to the repaint when I went on the ride it was only red and black unbelievable
Should have stuck with all red track. When it fades it’s going to look terrible. Otherwise the grey sections should have been yellow.
It’s actually more of an on ride visual effect, not so much for the midway.
Anything is an improvement; it's 10 years too late.
the suppoerts will b same or different
Not multi color
I don’t like it. It looks weird with the support color. Maybe if the supports were dark blue, purple or even that gray it might look better.
Looks cool. Must have been such a bitch to paint around all those hydraulics. I'd assume they didn't remove them.
I wish they’d redo the supports. The teal looks so bad with the flames. I wish they had just kept the original colors.
Agreed! Though the original color of the track was indeed red, the faded look of it which made it appear pink is a much preferred color in my opinion as it matches well with the teal supports
Be open to change. Although I'd wish they'd change the color on the supports to dark blue to make the flaming colored track really POP ...
Just get on the ride 💀
I love me some Knott’s, but the grey looks utterly stupid. I can’t believe this actually got through multiple levels of people and approved.
It’s a ride don’t mayter
Sorry but I'm not a fan of the new paint job Yikes 😬
I hate it. The faded pink was superior
The supports need to be grey not that ugly turquoise
It looks like ass IMO ... if needs an explanation that means nobody is going to get it. It would have made a lot more sense if the transitions were gradients or something, but just to have each track section be a totally different color in order to represent a flame and asphault looks ridiculous.
This would be erroneously expensive on site since they can’t just paint individual pieces in a paint room. It will probably look much better as the paint where the wheels are gets worn away
Way than the puke job they did on Tatsu at Six Flags 🤮
Who cares...just let it run already
