Something BIG is in the works for 2008. Image

The best thing in that article was, IMHO, the mentioning of Carowinds Connection. Jonathan, get ready for the flood of new forum members! Congrats!

Yep im waiting...on mystery mine to open!

I expected this eventually, and think it's a great idea, especially where it's going in the park. The park needs flats.

Now, when will they announce Steel Venom? ;)

I hate the operating calendar. The park is closing so earl. 10am-5pm, 10-am-6pm. At least last year it was 8, which is still early. This past summer, I was bad about hitting the park at about 3:30 and and staying until closing. Every other day, since that my friends didnt get off until 2. Man that bites. Guess this summers gonna be not as fun. Hopefully they will change it, but I doubt it. I mean, a lot more pass holders, or locals like me, like to come when the heat and crowds die down, especially since you can do what you have to do in the morning, and then be like "hey, lets go to carowinds for a few hours."

Hopefully they will notice this.

Edit: Just went to website, and it is until eight. They have the wrong calander on the brochure I guess....that needs to be changed.

^ They were joking about Steel Venom (although I guess it's certainly not out of the question).

I had kind of hoped to see slightly longer hours myself; still not enough late closings, in my opinion.

That's why you should join ACE and come to C3 *wink wink*

We get lots of night ERT on Top Gun every year.

Unless that nazi Max changes it this year.
