coasterstud522 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 What are talking about with Head Spin??? There was White Lightnin' at Carowinds that was basically like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chemical_echo Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I doubt Venom since Sony would probably be all over their ass for naming it after a villain from Spiderman 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkscrew Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I'm guessing either "Amnesia: The Experience" or "Ambulance: The Ride". In all seriousness, I actually think they'll use the highly original name "Boomerang". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCoasterCritic Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I'm going with Cobra or King Cobra. I agree and since I do not have this credit I will have to go and check it out. Does anyone technically have a ride credit for this coaster since it will count as a new coaster b/c it won't be Head Spin at Geauga? Are we sleeping on the Asian characters on the teaser 'shipping crate' found in the front of the park? Is it a clue that it will be named after some Asian reptile, since it says, Warning Live Reptiles? Since I can't think of any Asian reptiles other than dragons or Godzilla, which aren't actually real, I think Steel Venom is a good guess since they own the name.

Moose Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 ^ I agree about the whole asian reptile name because of the crate at the park. SO my guess, Viper. A la asian pit viper: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 It should be named "Been there, done that" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBoy Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 It should be named "Been there, done that...unfortunately" Fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomNick Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 "Carowinds Got The Crappy Leftover Coaster" Sounds about right for the "creative" direction CF went with ride names in the park! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdman76 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Now that Carowinds doesn't need a "big" attraction to compete with HRP, How about Thisado- The FSS Placetaker Coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revilolee Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I heard it was going to be called King Cobra or Taipan... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStitch626 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Chinese letters are on the crate so I dunno.One thing that may make sense though, we keep getting Aussie themed stuff, why not go with the Aussie snake called a Tiapan? Paint the train or track green and supports white. Then upgrade the trains to look snake'ish, adding to this give it "Seatbelts" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sushirocks13 Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 There's a new hint to the theme of the ride on Carowinds's homepage. It says..... "Some worship these, others fear them..." and it has a pic of a big crate in the background.

DarkStitch626 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Can someone please commence with the Samuel L. Jackson quote already.. . Snakes on a coaster. Snakes on a horse on fire with laser beams attached to their heads. Something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sushirocks13 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 As for the coaster itself… one of our spies has sent in what is said to be the new official name for the coaster… “Carolina Cobra”. Ummm… okay… that might take some getting used to. It just doesn’t seem to roll off the tongue. Can’t we just go back to using King Cobra instead? huh? "Carolina Cobra" is a retarted name King Cobra is a way better name than that.... .... oh and there are no 'Cobras' in the Carolinas, DUH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
