AFTERBURN1234 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Of course its going to be a hyper! i hope we get something very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreaksrttd Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I was looking at the picture of this red track for a while trying to decide what kind of element it might contribute to on the coaster. I looks like perhaps the top of a lift hill, the bottom of a drop, or coming out of a bunny hop. This is because it is unusually straight for B&M tracks. This is just my speculation and I am fully prepared to be proven wrong. Â -Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeist04 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Albeit DB hasn't even been open a year, but either way the coaster is going to be anything but a let down. Side note, anyone else think it is funny that of the top 20, 19 are either B&M or Intamin? Â Come to think of it, 18 out of my top 20 are either Intamin or B&M. ...With Phantom's Revenge and ROTM (USF) being the only two that aren't. Â With that said, I definitely agree that history is on the side of this new coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Mmmm.... B&M Hyper. Sounds good. I can't wait to see the layout..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastermoosh Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 It's an out-and-back...I doubt the layout will be much of a surprise, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilj4425 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Apparently, supports have begun to arrive on site and they are grey/silver. This is according to people on CarowindsConnection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homeboy23 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Watch yellow supports for the lift hill show up next making it the same color as Diamondback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lankanboy101 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 It's an out-and-back...I doubt the layout will be much of a surprise, lol. Â What if the go back to their original concepts and build a twister coaster like Raging Bull at SFGAm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJGoBlue Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 ^Then it is a twister...none of this specultation right now means anything, it is just speculation. All that is known so far is that it will be a Beemer, most likely a hyper. All the rest will come with the announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavs Fan Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Hmmm? Â I don't think this has been brought up yet but maybe it will have something to do with WINDOWS. Just look at the shape of the uhh, window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgodsey Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 ^Thats the standard front page for an IIS web server. It just means the content hasnt been made public yet. It has NOTHING to do with the new coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Just wondering, where do you guys think it'll start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffonFan09 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 In between the drop tower and the Carolina Cyclone is my guess. Or right by the front gate. There's also the option of it being right across from the skytower where all that empty land is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilj4425 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Just wondering, where do you guys think it'll start? Â The coaster will start on the old log flume site if that's what you're referring to. The lift will go up next to Dora. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanthonyam Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 If it is to be called WHITE LIGHTNING, it probably won't even be white, which Cedar fair for some reason does. (Silver Bullet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastermoosh Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 If it is to be called WHITE LIGHTNING, it probably won't even be white, which Cedar fair for some reason does. (Silver Bullet) Â That is TOTALLY NEW INFORMATION! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerrykoala2112 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 ^^OMG, really??!!?! Â But are there any other coasters like that, with a color in its name but its a different color... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supertrooper Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Geez...before you guys try being jerks you should read his post completely. All he said was that if the coaster is in fact called "White Lightning" then it probably won't even be painted white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastermoosh Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Yes. And the potential name vs. color of the track topic has been been mentioned numerous times in this thread including twice by me, both times I used Silver Bullet as an example. Â As for the debate over whether I'm a jerk or not, that's settled already. I am one...bigtime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew-B Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 This track has an odd bank to it, anybody else agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeparkman25 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 ^Are you sure you aren't just looking at different pieces? There is a straight brake run piece as well as another, non straight brake run piece. The non straight one is likely to be where the downhill slope ends to straighten out for the transfer track. Or am I just not seeing what you're seeing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew-B Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 ^ nevermind. i see what you're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 ^^I agree, looks like the end of a slope. The track looks brighter red than Diamondbacks though....... Â By what I know, the ride will be red, but I think the trains may be white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilj4425 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Looks like drop pieces have begun to arrive on site and they appear to be steep. Pics on page 28: http://www.carowindsconnection.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2772&start=405 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
