General Carowinds discussion

... because it appears it's not just any Roller Coaster track... it's not a winged coaster for here, or a launch coaster for there.... it's apparently the

Even to a roller coaster factory, and perhaps ESPECIALLY to a roller coaster factory, this isn't just any track. It's *THE* track.

So yeah, they might be hiding it.

Largest coaster in the world? :eh:

Agreed. It's not a conspiracy. Carowinds isn't the only theme park building a 2015 attraction. As it was said weeks ago, the track will come when it's time. From what I saw on Monday the footers aren't even close to be ready for assembly. I say we see nothing till after announcement.

Also, some of the track is going to Indiana and with their potential winter delays, they clearly need the track before we do. Since we have milder winters, we are lower on the priority list for track. I bet there weren't as many B&M projects going on in 2009 when Intimidator was built so the track got here sooner.
