Roller Coaster Arrow Dynamics
The park has yet to announce the new theme for the coaster.

Dreamworld is currently repainting Hot Wheels SideWinder from yellow track and blue supports to a new colour scheme with aqua track and white supports.

Arguably the biggest part of this refurbishment is the new train built by Vekoma.

SideWinder towers over the very much open and operational WhiteWater World.

The multicoloured train uses vest harnesses instead of the old OTSRs that were used on Cyclone's train. The train has also been fitted with speakers that blast music during the ride.

Hot Wheels SideWinder proves that you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

The ride's climax featuring its two inversions is still perhaps the roughest part of the ride. And keeping your head firmly back as ride operators suggest in their announcement is a good way to feel just how hard the rubber headrest is.

You can see here that they got as far as grinding off the rust in places. The extended downtime during its transition to Hot Wheels really could have given the the structure the desperate attention it needs.

the track is looking very bad in places, including many spots of rust like this.

It aims to fix issues with roughness but ultimately suffers because the track on this 1994 roller coaster is simply not smoothly designed in the first place.

The train looks nice, but it really doesn't handle any better than the original Arrow train. The track still has the same odd transitions, bumps and kinks along its course.

Hot Wheels is synonymous with orange track and royal blue supports. While the current light yellow and blue scheme is kind of close, given that the ride is in clear need of paintwork, it's a shame that Dreamworld didn't use this opportunity to give the ride the true overhaul it needed and paint the the ride to match its theme.

The colourful train takes a page from Mick Doohan Motocoaster's book. And reminds you that Dreamworld now has two yellow-tracked, rainbow-trained racing themed roller coasters.

You almost get the feeling that this ride is themed to Hot Wheels or something?

The ride features an almost insecure amount of branding everywhere you look.

The new Vekoma train. Ratcheting horsecollar restraints have been replaced by these hydraulic restraints that feature spring-loaded chest vests. They're comfortable for some, but if you're tall and slim in particular you'll find the hard rubber vest quickly causes discomfort on the collarbone.
