I am starting to think that the person who took those pictures was an employee at Carowinds and happen to throw in those tires to hint at the NASCAR tie-in. It could be part of their viral marketing campaign. But i may be wrong.


If you are serious about that then I'm going to retire from ever posting on here again? So please tell me you are joking!!!!!



Only 1 more day!

Question i know this is off topic but did they dismantle the log flume or just rip it apart? If they dismantled it, do you think that they will put it back up somewhere else? and another thing i never said anything but before i had any idea of the roller coaster coming up i was starting to think they were just going to move the flying super saturater over to where the log flume used to be. i mean i like the roller coaster idea alot more but if no roller coaster that would be a good spot for the saturator.

To everyone who said things like are the red pieces of track for looks, if you READ i was talking in past tense. i was thinkng that was what was going to happen way before any hint of a roller coaster. I was talking about i think it would be a good spot of satruater if they never decided to put a roller coaster in duhhhh.

MOD EDIT: Definitely no need for name calling here. No one had any idea you were talking in past tense, perhaps take some extra time to more accurately convey what you are trying to say.


I wasn't going to say anything, but your attitude just rubbed me the wrong way. People on this site read just fine. That is, when posters WRITE correctly. Here, I've taken the liberty of translating your nonsense:

Question: I know this is off topic, but did they dismantle the log flume or just rip it apart? If they dismantled it, do you think that they might reconstruct it somewhere else? Also, I never said anything, but before I had any idea about the roller coaster being built, I was starting to think they were just going to move the flying super saturater over to where the log flume used to be. I mean, I like B&M a lot more, but if we weren't getting a B&M hyper that would be a good spot for the saturator.

This is a guess, but I believe the far end on the right connects to the footer. The three ends on the left attach to the track or some sort of other structure in the air. Possibly both a structure like the train storage building and track.

Ok why is it such a big deal? This is the internet not English class

coasterfanbase wrote:^Actually guys that thing that looks like it connects to multiples is two supports, if you look it is not welded together.


If they are separate pieces, how does the piece on the right not fall over? :? It's gotta be one piece. The piece on the right can't just hold up in thin air like that. :lol:

Oh dear.... where to begin? For starters, I am sure the moderators will be more than happy to point you in the direction of this site's Code of Conduct. But there is an even bigger issue here. Why do you think "the internet" even exists?
(don't worry, I'll answer for you)
One word: COMMUNICATION.
This is a community of people with a shared interest who are communicating with each other. If nobody can understand what you are trying to say because you skipped English class one too many times, and because you really don't seem to care how you come across to others, then what is the point of even posting anything?

(listen everyone else, I know I am probably wasting my time, but I just couldn't stand it! :x)

That's it. It's not White Lightning. :shock: That's the exact same thing KD's website was before the announcement. I was wrong and owe Jarvis an apology. :wink:
