I was already aware that CC was unofficial, but what if Carowinds kind of adopted Carowinds Connection, and made it a feature on their website? That would attract even more forum users, and be kind of a win-win opportunity for both sides. This is just a shallow idea I thought of.

It's already enough [s]roller[/s]nuts, ungrateful and whinny folks over here based on just searching for the forums. Imagine how it would be if Carowinds site funneled them over!

Fury 325 is going to be completely different, just ride it yourself. Intimidator is airtime while Fury 325 is twists and speed.

I have a sick feeling that if Carowinds were to put this forum on their site, a lot of the uneducated general public would create accounts.

Yes I know that sounds condescending, but it's my honest opinion. I love talking to people like you guys who are into coasters and not regular people who see Fury and Intimidator as identical.



I would think this would only help the GP become more educated.


I don't have an opinion on the original post, since I am still quite new here, and I don't claim to have one iota of the amount of knowledge that most of you have. But I CAN tell you that I have learned A LOT just by being here. So thank you to everyone who has answered my questions, and have taught me just by being able to read what you post. While I've always been a coaster fan, you've helped me step it up a notch. :D

Remember to come up with better insults... :thumbup:

I didn't mean that the newer members here are uneducated in coaster terms, just that that kind of publicity for this forum might draw in the wrong crowds. Carowinds Connection is meant for true enthusiasts like us, not people who don't know a thing about coasters.
