Here we go again. You know what would be really funny. Back when this happened with Intimidator, we were all pretty much convinced; until they proved us wrong. Now they know that we "won't fall for it again" so they've put that teaser up, and nobody will think that's what it'll be, and the we will end up with White Lightnin'. :lol:

that would be a best case scenerio

I think the blueprints actually featured a tunnel, but you have to look at the front gate/parking prints. They don't show up on the coaster prints.

Wouldnt mind having the coaster make that fron gate statement by going under AND over the gate in some way. Also, love the yellow teaser. As far as the lightning, they are just getting a laugh now. Because they know we are all scratching our heads and playing right along into their little game

Just like Intimidator! Dead on.
Does anyone think Lance from Screamscape was played by Carowinds releasing those prints now? Funny how someone local like him happened to get a hold of these prints. Too much of a coincidence.

By the way. The footers on the left of the site closest to Hurler sure look like a set up for a launch and not those of the prints.

Oh the fun!

Okay, so now two more teasers...
Very interesting.
I immediately understood the yellow teaser. The track (in my opinion) will go above and below the gate. Simple enough to figure out. Now, the other one, "Can lightning strike twice?", either they are still trolling us, or they just want to go ahead and give up the name and design of the new coaster. Unless one of you can think of a better explanation.

Now, about the footers.
Goldsteh, what photo were you looking at? Or were you looking at the prints? It is very possible that this could be a Giga Launch coaster. B&M isn't scared to try something new. Unless I am unaware of the fact that they have already manufactured a launch coaster. To have something like this at Carowinds would be EPIC. But even if it is cable lift, or chain lift, or whatever. I am still happy either way :)

I will be there Tuesday morning and try and zoom in on the left footers. Hard with just an iPhone but I will give it my best.

Thanks. I though I would get to go this year, but that isn't happening.I wonder how much activity there will be when you get there. It has seemed pretty busy in the construction area from what I've heard.

Hey, not to get too off topic, but any updates on the Toll Plaza? or the new road? I would imagine that the Cedar Fair wants all of that done first before anything. To get it done before Scarowinds starts. Would it be possible? I mean, I have no idea how much work has been done out there.
