Yeah, it just went offline for me, also. Wasn't working for me anyway, I'm fine with waiting until it's up on the site.

My stream came back.

Ride looks amazing.

 

Who cares about the brake run or the seatbelt issues. The ride looks like a mature Leviathan, which is nothing but good.

 

Congrats Carowinds, you've got what looks like a definite winner on your hands.

 

And people thought Cedar Fair would never build a traditional style coaster taller then MF.

ITS FURY 325!!

[DJeXeL]

Looks nice.......

I for the life of me can't figure out why they decided to add FURY325 when the park already has Intimidator....

Same way I couldn't figure out why Leviathan was added to CW when the park already had Behemoth.

[MagnumFreak25]

That... Looks.... AMAZING!!!!

Trust me, Behemoth and Leviathan are two different rides. I get the visual similarities but they both offer different ride types. Mainly its an airtime vs speed battle.

I'm not a fan of the Lazy Name Plus Height habit that Cedar Fair has developed when naming coasters lately, but apart from the name, this ride looks incredible.

Badass! Another beautiful B&M coaster! Great addition Carowinds.

B&M needs to hire a new cookie cutter.

Looks like leviathan and Gatekeeper had a baby and named it like uncle Intimidator 305, if you ask me. Still cool logo though.

Fury 325 looks amazing! Congratulations Carowind!

[EricGarbo]

Cedar Fair: The masters of the one-two punch. I didn't think anything could top Leviathan but dear lord that layout is incredible.

Well there goes the theory that Leviathan was a mistake and really for Knotts. I also never understood the strategy but do love having both in my home park. It's like surf n ' turf would have been happy with either but having both is even more awesome.

[MagnumFreak25]

That has more airtime than I expected. I Really hope that I can get there this year.

[Barge84]

Looks like I'm going to Carowinds next year.

I am wondering the exact same thing. Awesome ride, I'm sure it's going to be a lot of fun, looks beautiful. But why? So many other awesome coaster types to choose from...

[rcjp]

Wow it's long! Properly long!

The Wonderland Leviathan/Behemoth combo is awesome. It's a fantastic combo, both individually unique.

[MagnumFreak25]

LOL, season pass add!

[Genx24]

Whoo boy now I have a reason to head back down to Charlotte! Looks great.

The site is now live

[JohnTheriault]

but no ejector airtime though. unless this first drop can still have a lot of power through the camelback, I don't see any ejector airtime anywhere...

*Goes and buys 2015 Carowinds season pass*

[shivtim]

I think it looks fantastic. Great speed, twisty, bit of airtime thrown in (looks like more airtime than Leviathan). Excited for next year!
