  1. I had the pleasure to ride this coaster on media day. All I have to say is WOW. Everything from the drop to the speed to the turnaround to the airtime is nothing short of amazing. B&M has once again shown why they are the best of the best when it comes to steel roller coasters. Fury 325 is definitely my new #1. If you haven't had a chance to ride it you are definitely missing out. Here are some pics I took:
  2. Haha...yep. The Huss GF thing was indeed a joke by Carowinds management during CoasterStock to trick the enthusiasts like myself. They also put in GCI stakes next to Thunder Road for even more fun.

  4. Huss Giant Frisbee for 2012? Yes please: http://www.thecoastercritic.com/2011/07/survey-markers-for-carowinds-rumored-2012-ride.html
  5. With as much dignity as he could muster, the Old Man gathered up the sad remains of his shattered Major Award. Later that night, alone in the backyard, he buried it next to the garage. Now I could never be sure, but I thought that I heard the sound of "Taps" being played. Gently: http://www.thesunnews.com/2010/12/26/1887376/freestyles-problems-wade-through.html Lawsuits against Freestyle Music Park continue to grind their way through court, but regardless of their outcome, there is little chance the park will ever open again, according to a theme park consultant and area businesses. The park opened as Hard Rock Park in 2009, but filed for bankruptcy protection after a slow first season. A group of investors bought it out of bankruptcy and reopened it as Freestyle Music Park in 2009. Although park representatives initially said the park would open in 2010, they failed to find new investors and it remained shut for the season. About 12 lawsuits against Freestyle are pending in Horry County courts, most brought by vendors who provided goods and services to the park but were never paid.
  6. I'd rather have both. I'm glad to see my home park at Carowinds get a B&M hyper and i'm glad to see Kings Dominion get an Intamin giga. Both are getting rave reviews and appear to be EXCELLENT rides. These two new coasters will help both parks become better and more premier. I'm also glad to see Cedar Fair putting this kind of investment into new rides.
  7. I know Elissa/Wes answered the question, but maybe Carowinds doesn't like Robb. Of course I'm just joking with that comment, also. Remember Robb is working at KD filming for the park, so KD hired Robb, and Carowinds didn't. TPR is a website, tour operator and video/production company. Robb and Elissa will be including Carowinds as part of a TPR Tour for the 2nd year in a row, TPR Management doesn't hate Carowinds or B&M. Anyone who believes they hate Carowinds or B&M is SUPER DUMB! Ahhh...I didn't realize they were hired by the park to do that. Awesome. I wish Carowinds would have hired them also. TPR did great work on this new coaster with their coverage.
  8. Oh...I understand that and agree with you. I just find it odd how the TPR crew was able to go across the entire country and ride I-305 but didn't go just a state or two south to ride I-232. They don't like Carowinds. Kidding.
  9. I'm wondering why TPR showed up at the I-305 event and took pics along with videos but didn't for I-232? Am I missing something here? Do they not like B&M or something? Oh and they should have themed both new coasters to the Pink Pony with pink colored track, glittered trains, and Miley Cyrus music playing in the que just to make everybody happy.

  12. A third very large crane is going up around where the third hill will go. Pics of the crane pieces on CarowindsConnection.
