TurboWagon

The turn is pretty much complete, I drove by this morning and saw them working on the top, probably finishing up the rails. There is also a butt-load of construction off to the left of which I am assuming is all of the new crap for the waterpark ( BOO:( )

All I am hoping for is all of this money they are "saving" by not having to do too much re-theming will bring on a new ride next off-season. I would be fine with some nice flat, thrill rides; bringing back the Frenzoid (Southern Star) is a lame excuse of a "development" and we dont really have the room for another coaster so I would imagine more smaller ries will start to show up. If I were running things at Carowinds, I would get rid of the Sky Flyer which would free up some much needed room for improvement.

BARF! What a very lame name for a very good coaster. New member here but I live about oh....i dunno....10 minutes from Carowinds. I have not been in quite a while, still have never ridden Nighthawk (still getting used to it) or many of the other new coasters. I think a little over 2 decades of season passes finally took its toll. Its much different than it was from the days of Smurf Island and when Vortex was the coolest new attraction the park received. As far as renaming the coasters. I knew this was going to be a problem for whoever took the park over after Paramount left. But I think a 3 year old kid thought up "Flight Deck". It just seems like a cop-out. I can see how they want to keep peoples familiarity with the old ride name but still, "Flight Deck", boring. Im not the biggest fans of waterparks so the new wave pool isnt really that exciting to me. Once the season starts again I plan on taking some photos on some of the less-crowded weekdays.
