I would say it is pretty likely Behemoth is a Cedar Fair project, or at the very least something Paramount had on the drawing board (along with other projects) and Cedar Fair bumped to the front.

I know when CF took over, someone generally in the know said that CF scrapped most of Paramount's ride orders that were coming up, and that person later stated (along with others in the know) that FoF's move to Carowinds was cancelled as well, so the Hyper could have went either way.

Having said that, CF didn't have to go with 2 other Hypers if the first was bought and paid for by Paramount.

Anyone think that the zip code for wv, could be 265 ft 05 inches? Just a thought.

Hmmmm... That's quite a good thought. I can see it easily being that. Maybe they got the height and were looking for an address for the crate and just popped the numbers in resulting in the Morgantown WV area.

To add to carowindsman6654's posting....I was at the park today and overheard some people in shirts and ties talking near the crate. The one guy kept saying that there was a significance to the identification code "EBCLAKF" and it will be interesting if people can figure it out.

Does anyone have any thoughts of what it could mean? Maybe the letters spell something....Im not sure...must be code for something.

Hmmm....could be something scrambled.

I'm kinda sick of trinyg to de-code the shiping box!

I am going to keep trying, however, my last post was pretty much blind guessing so I am going to stop posting my guesses unless they seem intelligent, . I'm sure everyone on here will appreciate it.

While I enjoy speculation, a lot of folks here are grasping at straws.

From the 2008 Coaster Mania Q&A it was revealed that when Cedar Fair bought the parks there was no long term large projects for any of the Paramount Parks in the works, which put Cedar Fair sort on their toes because they were sent scrambling to get projects on the table. It was also mentioned that even they were surprised with how quickly they were able to get things moving on these upcoming large projects for all of the former Paramount Parks.

Also like Clint mentioned it was confirmed at the Q&A that they (Cedar Fair) cancelled the moving of Flight of Fear from one park to another when they took over the reins.

I highly doubt Carowinds would make the code something that could easily be de-scrambled. What about if EBCLAKF are not suppose to be letters but represent numbers or something.

Is there any way to check if the name White Lightning has been trademarked?

Just as good a guess as any! Very good!

Well if you transcribe the letters to the number they correspond to E = 5, B = 2, C = 3, L = 12, A = 1, K = 11, F = 6. So it turns into 523121116. So 5231 ft long, 211 ft high, 16?

Last time I checked, there were no new names registered by Cedar Fair at this time.

Do you guy's think this coaster will have 3 trains or 2 trains?
Personally, I think it will be 2 trains.

^ If Carowinds is smart, they'll do three for outstanding capacity. Nitro at Great Adventure rarely has a line, and it runs three.
