Re: FURY 325 coming to Carowinds in 2015!

The trims don't ruin the ride on Intimidator, I doubt the ones on Fury will have an impact. I suspect the ride will still be fun.

The section of track going in now does appear to have a two brakes on it.

I can't wait to see the finished bridge, the old one has fun riding an electric wheelchair over. Especially at the end of the day, when the battery was dead, I managed to make it back to my truck and load it before it went completely dead.

Explain Ricochet then, 13-15 blocks but can only run 10 cars. To my memory, they can run 10 but normally only run 8... Intimidator has three brake runs for a total of 5 blocks but only runs three trains. Thunderhead has two brake runs, but only runs 2 trains.... I know why the hill is there, but B&a...

The hill over the station on Afterburn is called the speed hill, it is intentional designed to slow the train down for the wingover without having a brake run.

When was the original Coca-Cola Cool Zone added? I know the Oasis replaced the Cool Zone in either 2005 or 2006 because it was done during the operating season. Looks really good, Thrill Zone has really needed improvements.

Hasn't it already been mentioned that Fury will have trims?

Longer track than Boo Blasters but the same amount of cars. How many people does each car hold?

Sounds like they may demo part or all of the Administration building behind the waterpark or maybe the marketing building. Hmm, I wonder if they have more office space then they need. The administration building I believe is from 1972, SwampFox do you know the history of any of the backstage buildin...

Ah the famed Wild Wonder accident, if memory serves me correctly the pier was fined after investigators determined that the anti rollbacks had been intentionally disabled. That accident was in 1999, the ride barely operated for a month total. Later sold to Magic Springs and the ride since has operat...

I wouldn't say struggling, more like careful. Imagine how heavy those pieces are and how damage they could do, they can't just bang them around!

Hmm, P's and Q's..... RollerBee will try his best, just have to remember positive opinions only. On the side note, the second building for the entry plaza went vertical. It appears to be steel or metal framing but could be wood. Another observation, it appears the area between the walkways turned in...
