... fan. It was always rough, bumpy, jackhammery, shuffly & too brakey...when I rode it. The pacing is just terrible, ruined by the over usage of trim brakes on every drop and turn. Honestly, the only positive thing about this coaster is the length. I just can't understand why this coaster is ...

... up the dead end). Thanks again for the Flyers. The Beast has always been my number 1 woodie. Sure it's fun during the day (please remove that dang trim after the drop) but it is at night where it comes alive. The beast is more of a run away / terrain coaster which I love but I think most are starting ...

... all these years rides just like Tenn. Tornado did in its first year of operationing), Ricohet (the parks mack wild mouse that uses basically 3 trims during the whole course and then they aren't on that hard...), and Hurler (which was speeding thru the course like it was its last ride!) http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b312/jarmor/c3_01.jpg ...

I have yet to see any attraction so dirty or rickety it needed to be shut down, in fact, on opening day Carowinds felt brand ...

... than it does today. This was the exact point that the cars would sometimes roll back to. Sometimes they just wouldn't make it to the mid-point trim and start rolling back.

... beginning of the season Hurler seemed to be going the fastest, but near the end of the season it started getting slower. My stepdad thought he saw trim brakes throughout the track. If it's a train problem then they should ditch those and use the regular trains without the (IMO) "useless" seatbelts.
