I never said they were bad.. I just said we haven't gotten anything brand-new (coaster-wise) in 10 years. I think NightHawk and Cobra are great additions to the park.

let me get this straight...you are comparing construction of a coaster to a middle school...
Apples to oranges has a new meaning!

1999: Afterburn
2000: Saturator
2002: Ricochet
2003: Reptar
2009: Cobra got a new train
Used, new, there is no difference to the GP.

No, it was for another reason that I'm not going to get into, but that was an interesting and somewhat unexpected side effect. 40 people signed up in the less than 24 hours this forum was set to private.

I saw this from the top of Afterburn
They have begun digging up the parking lot right at the South Gate
It looks to be 8ft wide x 2 ft deep x 60 yards

And though I do agree that it is strange and completely inaccurate to compare a school to a coaster construction, I think Coaster Punk just wants Carowinds to get moving so we can all see this new ride.
And I also agree that the people constructing this ride know what they're doing, but it couldn't hurt to get it up and ready earlyhaha. I actually just can't wait to find out the details about this ride.
