Ya'll forgetting that Intimidator's first drop and other parts are built over the maintenance road.

Plus

There is atleast one stop sign on the road telling worker not to pass until after the trains have passed or something similar.

[Jarsh]

The "Don't pass until the train is clear" warning isn't so that the truck won't hit a support and cause an issue; it's so that something falling out of the train doesn't hit the truck/someone walking.

Kinda like crossing the road. You don't wait until there are no cars because you're afraid you're gonna damage the car if it hits you. You wait to make sure you aren't damaged by the cars, lol.

Coins, glasses, or keys hitting you at 95mph would definitely leave a mark. LOL

^^ Maybe Fury needs that signage at the three places that pedestrians walk under the track...

its really not gonna matter if they finish the track next week. until the bridge is near completion, they wont be able to test the trains.

They're making a lot of progress on the front gate area though.

HEY! I've had extra-terrestrials tell me to go to Carowinds too!!! small world!

[RollerBee]

I know why the sign is.....
(Rolls eyes)
It was only slightly off topic but I figured since we were talking maintenance roads under coaster I would bring it up. My main point was the no one had mentioned Intimidator yet. I am sure there will be more than enough room under Fury at that point for vehicles using that section of maintenance road.

Is it me or does the front gate look smaller than I expected. I know from that high it will but geez it's way small. How many scanners are we looking at having? I think CP had 10 stands 2 scanner per stand which would make for 20 lines. I'm just lowkey excited about the LED board.

also mike fehnel just stated on his twitter that the last piece of Fury is on site


also has anyone heard if carowinds is removing the carowinds sign once you enter the park since they will have a new one in the plaza. seems like it would open that space up make it less congested.

What's the octagon thing for on the ends of the track?

taken off when they install the track... it keeps the sand in the rails.

One was given away at the WWU.
