While watching testing this afternoon from the drop-off lot, I decided to time how frequently they were releasing trains. I started the timer as each train passed the FAA beacon at the top of the lift hill.

Train 1 - 00:00.00 seconds
Train 2 - 01:27.74 seconds
Train 3 - 01:24.84 seconds
Train 4 - 01:25.82 seconds
Train 5 - 01:29.62 seconds
Train 6 - 01:24.27 seconds
Train 7 - 01:25.72 seconds
Train 8 - 01:24.19 seconds
Train 9 - 01:23.64 seconds

I really hope once it comes time to process the general public, that the ride operations team can continue to crank one out of the station roughly every 90 seconds.

I'll do my best to time them again on Media Day. I'm curious to see how the timing changes once they have trains to fill.

There are some crazy lights under that bridge tonight.

crazy is right! I can't imagine that not half blinding people going thru the tunnel. I'd have much preferred the model a few pages back showing the hexagons lit with neon, than this moving arc-light monkey show. Between that and the light from the entrance area starship Enterprise, and the parking lot landing strip... might just be more pleasant to ride Fury in the warmth and light of the sun.

Awesome picture from the webcam! Nice sunset and glow off of the track.

here's a great pic from the Carowind's Twitter

I think the lights are really cool in the tunnell and the parking lot lights and the new entrance lights aren't nearly as bright in person as they are on the camera. Trust me, it looks really nice and I promise it won't blind you.

If people are looking for a dark ride, they are going to have to go to another park.

Just saw my first FURY 325 TV commercial. I had to record it with my phone and the compressed quality took a dive. But here it is!

What channel is the TV ad airing on?

HOLY CRAP that was the best commercial for a roller coaster I've ever seen! It showed what the ride actually looked like, with good, up to date detail, and made it seem even more scary. I cannot wait to get on this thing, I'll be riding it for the first time on the 6th!

[tarheel1231]

Are you guys looking at the underground dive? Wow.

[Prongfan]

Rave tunnel!

I noticed the lights for the lift hill supports are pulsing in different colors. Pretty sweet.

Rave tunnel!

Yep. Bring your glow sticks and Fury glasses.

I agree that is one hell of a commercial. If that don't get the passive public out to the park this year, nothing will. I hope this coaster shatters all attendance records this year so that we can get another record breaker in 5 or 6 years.
