Question:
If the GM is VP of Carowinds, who is President of Carowinds?

[Chris]

Anyone in or around Greensboro wanna car pool and split gas cost? If so, I would want to make it an all day thing (7am - midnight). I can drive if you aren't trying to drive your car.

If you're down, send me a PM or reply here.

A BIG BIG BIG suprise? Oh dear.

[lanigan911]

Hmmm...maybe exclusive ride on the new coaster the day before opening day next year?

[BoociferPatch]

Me like suprises

This will be my first true coaster event so I am really excited.

Hey Dani,
Since I am unable to attend Coaster Stock, could you or someone else answer find out the answer to the following question:
"Ever since Phantom Flyers opened at Carowinds, park enthusiasts have claimed they have hit the roof of the que building, and the concrete platform under the ride. Is this actually possible?"
Thank you,

Why would you bring attention to this? Do you want them to ban snapping?

[RollerBee]

Cause I want to know if it is possible, and did I say anything about snapping? Carowinds is well aware of everyone's ability to snap, hence why during 2005 C3 only half the ride was allowed to snap at one time. The rides manager was scared that the ride would break with all tubs snapping at once. Also, if Carowinds didn't want people to snap, they wouldn't "ban" it, they were rig the tubs to make harder or or impossible to do.

[carowindsgirl1972]

what kinds of questions are going to be on the park jeopardy?

[Dani@Carowinds]

RollerNut- I am looking into your question.

Carowindsgirl- The Park Jeopardy questions will consist of questions regarding Carowinds (park history, ride facts, etc) and the other Cedar Fair parks.

[Dani@Carowinds]

RollerNut- Here is the answer to your question: No, it is not possible. The cables would have to stretch beyond the breaking point for this to be possible.

[carowindsgirl1972]

okay thanks. For Jeopardy are there going to be different groups like age groups or begginer/advanced groups?

[chargercrazy]

park enthusiasts have claimed they have hit the roof of the que building

I know this is true. See details in the "Flyers are grounded" thread.

[Dani@Carowinds]

Caro-Girl-
The questions will be arranged similar to Jeopardy, 200-1000 point categories, the higher the points the more difficult the categories.

-Dani

Also-I spoke with maintenance, and they say it is impossible for the flyers to hit the concrete or the queue house.

Thanks!
