With the addition of Lightning Run, Kentucky Kingdom certainly took a Louisville Slugger and hit it out of the park.



With airtime a plenty, laterals, insane directional changes, smooth track, a comfortable train, and SO MUCH FUN I was completely in love with Lightning Run!



After my first ride on Lightning Run in the back seat I was kicking myself for not making it back to Kentucky Kingdom sooner.



Hitting the brake on Lightning Run you are either ready to get off or you have as big a grin on your face as I had and want more.



You can tell how good a ride is by how much I want to get back and ride it again when I sit down to write trip reports like this one.  Next year I will be back for more Kentucky Kingdom, not just because a new coaster is coming, but I need more Lightning Run.
