Lighting Racer is a wooden dueling roller coaster located at Hersheypark. It is located in the Midway America section of the park. Built by Great Coasters International in 2000, it was their first wooden racing and dueling roller coaster, and their second roller coaster at Hersheypark after Wildcat.
The ride makes use of GCI's Millennium Flyer articulated trains for a smooth and comfortable ride. During the ride's first two years in operation, the park played recordings for the winning train, which sometimes included local celebrity voices. While fans of the ride may have a particular side (Thunder/Green, or Lightning/Red) they enjoy more, both sides travel through the same elements, although at different times. Speed is affected not only by weight on the train, but also by weather conditions (rain, temperature, etc.), maintenance, the lifts' speeds, and placement of riders on train. Both sides contain an on-ride camera, located in the tunnel midway through the ride.
In October, when Hersheypark is decorated in a Halloween theme (Hersheypark in the Dark), Thunder and Lightning are renamed Mischief and Mayhem, respectively. The ride is also dubbed "Wicked Racer" for the occasion.

I love Lightning racer so so much because this ride is the best roller coaster ever at Hershey park!
They got rid of the automated AND THE WINNER IS LIGHTNING/THUNDER part at the end. Unless the dispatcher always used to say it and I always thought all this time it was a recording lol
This is one ride I wish was open in the winter. If they opened Wildcat why not this? It's sooooo fun
This ride is soooooooooo fun l love it so much 💖
Do we still have Comet, Trailblazer, Sidewinder, Wild Mouse, Laff Track, or any other Hersheypark rides coming up or is this it from there? Also do you prefer the lightning or thunder side of this coaster more?

Yes I still have quite a bit of Hersheypark videos to post. Personally, I thought they were both great, and I honestly don't have a preference.

In my opinion lightning is better I went on both and I found thunder to be very rough compared to lightning
This looks fun.
