Do you mean twisted like expedition gforce or twisted like what diamondback/goliath/hollywood dream does.

Its for SCarowinds, here it is in the park in 2007... I believe it was over by Saturator.

Holy Smoke! That's the Hockey dude from the top of the Restaraunt over in Wayne's World!!!

Well, do you see anywhere they can store a third train? The footers for the transfer/storage area aren't nearly as wide as they are for Diamondback. Unless I'm missing seeing some footers close to the white buildings. If they do use 3 trains, they may have to build some kinda funky storage area for it behind another train. See my pic below for my thoughts (thanks flewthecoop26 for the pic!)...

I was thinking twisted like Expedition GeForce. That is unless that weird notched area in the parking lost that is blocked off is somehow used as a wide turn/pull-out from the first drop. I mean, I just can't see them having the room (length wise) to run a 250'+/- lift hill plus a drop and turn, all in that area. I mean, look at Diamondbacks lift/drop/turn area... it's HUGE!

"We think it's going to be an upside down Drop Zone," says another young boy.

Really? I can't wait.

LOL! Nice article.

How cool would it be on announcement day if they rolled a race car out of the box in front on everyone!

Interesting news article... I wonder what the significance of the red color of the track is? I think Dani gave a major clue as far as a car could fit in the boxcar.... Maybe the trains will be shaped like race cars and it will be launched...

[Whitesoxsfan21]

I would defiantly say racing theme...

[coasterbruh]

White lightnin'...gosh c'mon guys we all know whats what it is. When are you gonna get it in your heads!

We can confirm it will be a rollercoaster and one that's going to be record breaking.

"Really big. This coaster's going to be massive," says Swords.

Hummm...regional record breaking, national record breaking, or world record breaking...

Its funny, you actually drew exactly how Behemoths transfer track area is,

http://behemoth.canadaswonderland.com/public/latest/gallery/index.cfm?mode=image&chip=43

Its pretty hard to argue against three trains when you can match every single footer for a transfer shed that goofy shaped like what we have poured here and there. Not saying its not possible but for sake of cost savings to B&M if they already have two proven designs of shed layouts (wide and narrow?) why go trying to make another when you can basically copy and paste that part from behemoth.

[Jarsh]

Here's hoping that there are 3 trains (old style at that)... God know Carowinds needs a people eating machine.

[RiDeWaRrIoR]

Yea I hope its like Hulk, have never ridden it but I love the design. I designed a launch coaster on no limits coaster and its my favorite ride I have ever made (not based on what we are getting).
