[Foghorn-Leghorn]

I'm actually scared to death of hornets; much more than wasps. They are ferocious and painful when they sting. They mean business.....

If Carowinds wants to name the coaster after a TRULY horrifying insect, they should name it after those ferocious Japanese Hornets. Jesus Christ, those things make me crap myself just thinking about it.

I don't know how they got here but they're in North Carolina! They live off the sap from the trees in my yard and I'm scared to even walk outside sometimes! I'm pretty sure if one of those things came after me I would die right then and there before they even stung me injecting their deadly venom...

Sorry to continue on an unrelated tangent, but no, japanese hornets are not in north carolina. You have that bug confused with the european hornet, which may look similar, but is smaller and far far more docile. They live most commonly in tree trunks, eat cicadas, and mostly keep to themselves. Neat bugs.

Not a teaser but it's a nice picture to see construction.

Oh then aren't those Cicada-killer wasps?

How did the 30 million 300 foot tall roller coaster thread go from Centurion to Fury/Fury 325 to hornets to different kinds of hornets and wasps?

Well when the beekeeper showed up at all of the media outlets with a burned net, that kind of fueled the speculation. But don't forget, there is also a big sign outside the park regarding a complete transformation, above and below. Whatever that means. But insects aside, a big transformation indeed sounds like something major is coming.,

[PalmTree55]

I am hoping that all of these teasers are actually referring to separate rides, meaning we will get more than one new attraction for next season.

[Atombomb]

Maybe the new coaster will have an element never seen before

[FamousAmos]

That's what I was trying to figure out. Here lately, B&M has been experimenting a lot. I mean look at Thunderbird. A Launched Winged coaster. It wouldn't surprise me if they've created something new...

[Chris]

B&M has not and will never be "experimenting." Years of designing and testing were put in place before they offered a launch wing, that I can assure you.

[chunkyskunk]

Thanks Chris and very true. That is why B&M makes quality coasters with consistency. For experimentation, occasional failures and occasional downtimes, we have Intamin.

Intimdator track was delivered this day 4 years ago.

Intimidator's track was first seen on site Aug 5th, 2010.

It was 2009! I can't believe that no one caught that.?

Thank you, Chris, for correcting me. Why did I even say that. Oh well. Anyway, chunkyskunk, that is funny.

*rushes to edit*
You didn't see anything.

[Wormy]

Oh, I caught both. People make mistakes when they rush to post. Happens quite frequently here now.

[chargercrazy]

So when is the track showing up at the park for Hornets' Fury?
