These are probably physical invites for the announcement. (some us got the email versions yesterday) But clearly there is a double meaning since track isn't too far off from arriving.

:clap:

Bravo Carowinds. Julie, Emily and the entire PR team are doing an AMAZING job of building up hype, and other parks, no, other INDUSTRIES should take notice. Fantastic.

I think we're seeing a shift to more Fury/Fury 325 naming unless it's something we haven't heard yet as someone mentioned earlier.

Agreed. I haven't had this much fun with something that I already know about in a LONG time. Some of these "clues" are even messing with my head, lol!

At this point I'm hoping for a bada$$ Sea monster with the teal and yellow track, and also the net teasers. Still, there's a good chance that track is not ours. It could very well be for a six flags park.

We kind of/sort of know what color the track will be. So if we are correct about the Teal/Yellow-Green track, what color do you think the supports will be? I'm guessing that they'll be yellow-green like the bottom of the spine.

It makes sense that the name of the ride will probably be something we havent heard yet.

Back in 2010-2011 when we all on BGWFans were doing this same speculating for Verbolten, Busch Gardens leaked names like "Elementum," etc. which made some people certain that's what the ride would be called. Now, their marketing team sucked at teasing the ride so we didn't really move to the Verbolten name until they actually did a pre-announcement revealing its name.

I could really appreciate a name other than Centurion and Fury 325, but if we get the latter I'll be happier than if we got the former
