Storm Chaser Construction at Kentucky Kingdom

Kentucky Kingdom’s Rocky Mountain Construction “Storm Chaser” hybrid coaster continues to grow as it approaches its 2016 debut.

While not much more track has been installed since our last update, the support structure is beginning to take a more defined shape.

Many of the ledgers that will eventually support the track are in place.

Though the track hasn’t been installed here yet, the ledgers give you an idea of just how twisted the track will be.

I believe these are the ledgers and support for the 140-degree stall element.

Drivers on the road next to the coaster will have the show as they drive alongside the twisted RMC track.
