well...the height of 2 other attractions lead me to believe it is very possible...

I also think it's very possible, but I have no idea what they are getting aside from it being Intamin. It really caught me off guard that they are getting a coaster at all this year.

Yup, they get the largest vertical loop in the world from B&M and now another (presumably large) coaster from Intamin...

OK time for my update:


The ant hills keep growing. I guess they are doing soil tests?


Will do.


Apparently white paint wasn't good enough, so they painted over with orange.


76 is that way.


Drilling co.


As you can see the markings go all the way to south gate.


I'm guess the turnaround/hammerhead will be here but they are using it for all the junk they dig up right now I think.


Hello south gate. I haven't used you in a while.


Only cut here if you want to see something go BOOM!


Just a comparison of a Vekoma footer. Nighthawk's says something like "F20A", like Footer 20 A.


More footerage.


Time for dirt porn!


Hmmm.. what is going on here?


There were a few peeps at Sonfest.


Just a few... and that's all for your daily installment of dirt and paint porn.

Yes, there is somebody out there that does doubt it.

Who you?

And there's even KD fanboys who still think they are getting the red B&M after seeing the Intamin show up... I feel sorry for them.

Oh really? Is it on the KD Forum? I'll have to go over and read it if so, i'm having a bad day so reading that might cheer me up a little.

Yes, that's where it is, but I worded it wrong... so I edited it. And it is quite amusing.

No. I think Carowinds is getting a B&M. But, I guarentee you 100% that there is someone out there who doubts it.

And does anyone think there is still possibility for a giga at KD? Would CF buy giga and a hyper in the same year?

I think it is very possible that KD gets a giga.

May I suggest Firefox? It has a built in spell checker.

[Wormy]

Nothing goes together like Sonfest and dirt porn.

Thanks Wes. Since I figured you'd be getting some good shots this weekend, I stayed home, relaxed, and had a few bowls of Cookie Krisp.

Which way is 76 again?

[carowindsman6654]

Environmental/geotechnical drilling is what they're doing on site. Or in other words soil testing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geotechnical_engineering

Great Updates!

Big Stuff is going to start happening pretty quick here to the work-site now folks... get ready!

Or Safari, which has the same and I love it.

Wormy you work me like a, oh wait let's keep it clean for the kiddies.

They tore down almost everything, but kept the little brown building behind the backhoe: http://travel.webshots.com/photo/215596 ... 8143YJpebe Is that like an outhouse or something for the construction workers? Maybe Jarvis's house?

It's not Jarvis', it would have a tripod on top of it.

During the construction of Diamondback, there was a building similar to that. No one knew what it was for. I can't remember if they ever tore it down or not, though.

Did anyone else notice that 76 was actually 76'? Does anyone think that means 76 feet?
