Carowinds Discussion Thread
Rollercoaster Rider replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Have you ever been to Carowinds and ridden their God-awful offerings? A 50 million investment could have given the park several excellent offerings to improve the park. You need a huge rollercoaster or else you wont get business? Maybe Disney needs to reconsider their model I hope the retrack on hurler makes a big difference, I've ridden it without trims and it becomes a much better ride... it could see a good improvement from fresh topper. The retrack on thunder road was night and day, glad they're going to finish it. The new color scheme on afterburn sounds unnecessary and frankly, unappealing... whatever. The article on the 300ft "wing coaster" sounds like BS. If it is some sort of wing deign, I can't imagine it being b&m. Carowind's is regional, Disney is well Disney aka Destination. -

Her bunions are bothering her and she's gassy. She has a bad back and cataracts in both eyes and she's lack lactose intolerant. That is a true quote from a theatrically released movie released in the last 3 years. -

Turbine/Psych Underground @ Walibi Belgium also had a flywheel launch and according to rcdb.com, Not only did Gerstlauer build a new train but they also turned the flywheel launch into a LIM launch as well. (Monte also uses a Flywheel launch) Granted, I know that Turbine/Underground and Montezooma are different in ride length and height but the overall system is the same.
