Carowinds worker (actually, a 3rd party contractor) severed his hand this morning working on WindSeeker. https://www.wral.com/reports-worker-hurt-at-carowinds-in-charlotte/18238748/ https://www.wsoctv.com/news/local/worker-seriously-hurt-working-above-ground-at-carowinds-officials-say/927969317 https://www.wyff4.com/article/rescue-crews-respond-to-a-musement-park-after-construction-worker-injured-fire-official-says/26719008 https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/local/article227173114.html https://patch.com/north-carolina/charlotte/carowinds-worker-seriously-injured-amusement-park-report -

Exactly. Sometimes, multiple times. -

In my opinion, it's not about the extra 3 or so MPH. It's about not being abruptly slowed down during the only element type the ride has. When comparing my multiple trimless rides Saturday with my many trimmed rides in previous seasons, I think an Intimidator ride where it's running a few MPH slower than normal and not activating the trims (if that is indeed what's happening here) is better than a trimmed ride running a little faster up the hill. But that's just my opinion. One more thing: I'm not sure it was running slower. It seemed to be flying along pretty good. But maybe that part is a psychological thing. -

Does anyone remember if CoasterStock participants receive the season long souvenir cup or the daily one? Thanks! -

Why would you pay $69? Just hop on board when nobody is looking like in basically every western movie ever made. PS: God this image is getting a lot of use today. fixed -

Wait. RMC manufactures S&S Sansei's track? Are you sure about that? Yes, 100% sure RMC makes the track for the S&S Free Spins. -

You must have missed the part on their website where they say Hurler will likely reopen next season? -

Actually, I was at the park a couple of weeks ago and they would not help someone on Mystery Mine. They made his family members come over to help. -

According to the site, anyone above 48" can ride alone, so credit whore away. I can verify that they allow you to ride Cocoa Cruiser without a child. Yes, I have the credit. -

Book a refundable hotel or better yet, a hotel that does not charge your card until you check in (just make sure to cancel by the cancellation date so you aren't charged). -

Normally, I would agree with you but I can't here. I think we get four more things, in addition to the flats. I think a Vortex transformation is all but guaranteed. But hey, I've been wrong before. -

I'm here at DW and waiting for LR to open. They just evacuated the queue. They're saying it could be down for about an hour.
