I passed the new and awesome news of the day along to Duane and we are now listed on RCDB. Here was his funny response to my email:
Cool. Isn’t that the new track system Wisdom is using on their Dragon Wagons?

So here's my idea on the layout. Thanks to whoever provided the first original pic!

Silly goose.. that picture is far outdated! There is clearing to the right of the maintenance road towards the picnic pavilions, so I assume the coaster will be used in that area somehow.

What kind of growth hormones does it need to grow a launched lift hill?

Start with a little NITROglycerin, a feather from a CRYSTAL WINGS, a little AIR from across the pond, the venom from a BLACK MAMBA deep in africa, the claw of a rare GRIFFON, the dust from a SILVER STAR, and ashes from a WILD FIRE...
I feel like an official geek now lol

At least it doesn't look like there will a splashdown, so we don't have to worry about the speedo coming back.

A certain PR manager posted this on Facebook:

TRACK HAS ARRIVED AT CAROWINDS. Watch Fox (Charlotte) News at Ten tonight for a tour of the construction site.

take a chill pill and go check out the Fox website. No need for all the hysterics.

AGREED. I don't live in Charlotte.

And....we got about 4 seconds of the crate, and 4 seconds of dirt on Fox 18. Then they've spent about 5 minutes discussing Paula Abdul not returning for American Idol.

^ Crap. That's where I tuned in... I guess I missed it.

About the pictures above:

I think that, instead of a hammerhead by the south gate, the helix will be located there. Remember the footer marking with the circle surrounded by circles. The ideal support structure for a helix.

That's Fox for you. 20 minutes of crime stories followed by 20 minutes of American Idol with 20 minutes left for sports/weather.

You really didn't miss anything. Literally a 5 second video and a "we'll find out more on August 26th."

Hehe.. Now I'm excited to go to Carowinds again! Nice to see some track!
