I figure Paramount like this, Saturator is gone as is AFX. Carowinds has Nighthawk which is 10 seasons compared to 4 at PGA.
Paramount rides that are gone:
Son of Beast (KI)
Tomb Raider (KI)
4 OF 5 AFX (PGA remains)
Hypersonic (KD)

The "coaster going under the bridge" comment is a long standing joke, that for whatever reason still has not died yet. No one here (I hope at least) actually thinks anything will go under the bridge.

I actually don't think it's that out of the question that the coaster could go under the bridge. When you look at potential paths going between the Palladium and Rip Roarin' Rapids, it actually lines up really well. Would I bet money on it happening? No. But there is definitely some logic to it, and if I was designing a coaster that was to go near the main gate and needed to make a visual impact, I would definitely see if that bridge could be utilized (assuming they aren't getting rid of it completely as part of a remodel).

I don't buy the maintenance road as a barrier. Other parks survive without a maintenance road going through the middle of them. It might add inconvenience, but shouldn't be an obstacle that prevents a major project from happening.

Anyone who wants to demonstrate their idea of the 2015 coaster, here is a screenshot for you to draw on:

^ HOLY CRAP it looks big! Good that the park acknowledged the Skyflyer moving.

[RiDeWaRrIoR]

i was glad to see they posted it on the facebook page as well. Looks pretty sweet. I wonder how crowded it will look being right near all the other rides and such. I can only see this being very well for the skyflyer, maybe they will do a special lower price now in its new location..... I did not see any mention of flying over water, so I am thinking they have filled it all in where its at, which would suck because not much was left anyways... I think this will definately be more popular in its new location, but I guess we will just have to wait and see.

Jarvis Morant Most important question...is the water in the area gone or is it still there?

Carowinds Amusement Park Still there

Benjamin Joseph Parks I keep hearing that you guys are tearing down your wooden roller coasters? True? ?

Carowinds Amusement Park not true, our Thunder Road and Hurler are treasured members of the family!

Ah thanks chkn! I thought there was only 1 other comment when I posted mine so I guess I didnt see that... hahahaha

You mean that guy flipping the bird? Very professional! Anyway it seems like these guys right here are the only questions Carowinds answered. They seem like they are answering dumb questions and nothing serious like the repainting for example. It makes me think that these are questions set up by employees just for Carowinds to answer.

I take the question from Jarvis back, that I did want to know. However the other questions seem like pretty dumb questions and Carowinds didn't answer any of the others even my question. Either one of two things, repainting is going to be a "suprise" or it's out of the question.

I heard you all are removing either Carolina Cyclone or Gold Rusher. Please don't remove gold rusher. That ride means so much to me and it just brings back child hood memories.

[RollerBee]

I doubt any coasters will be removed until 2015 or 2016 at the soonest. Even then, I doubt it until 2017 to 2019.

lol I dont think this forum has the ability to remove anything from Carowinds.

As good 'ol chknwing said, we aren't Carowinds. This is a fanpage. The Carowinds PR department does read the forums some though.
