:lol: amen to that, I will rent a wrecking ball myself...

Edit: Looks like some new clues to the ride from screamscape:

(9/1/08) Carowinds has started a brief teaser campaign for their new coaster today, issuing two statements ahead of a September 10th announcement date that go along with the mystery crate that arrived near the park’s main gate.
New Species Discovered in Vietnam
GENEVA, Aug. 26 (XINHUA) -- Scientists have discovered 11 new species of animals and plants in a remote area in Central Vietnam, conservation group World Species Fund (WSF) said on Wednesday. “We are concerned some of these species have mutated.” The species were found in the Thua Thien Hue Province - a region known as the Green Corridor.
According to the WSF, all these species are at risk from illegal logging, hunting, unsustainable extraction of natural resources and conflicting development interests. However, the Thua Thien Hue Province authorities - in particular the Forest Protection Department - have committed themselves to conserving and sustainably managing these valuable forests.

A mysterious crate shipped overseas to an unknown Top Secret location may have accidentally been lost somewhere near Carowinds, North Carolina. Officials are concerned that it may have included a unique species recently discovered in the Vietnam jungle. Eyewitnesses say that they saw a Crate with a parachute attached falling from the sky somewhere over Carowinds, an amusement park located on the NC SC boarder. Due to the High Level of secrecy we were not able to get a spokesperson to comment on its actual existence.
We will update this story as soon as we get more details.

Well I see the marketing dept. is trying to earn their dough. This is so rediculous it almost makes me puke! Marketing a 12 year old headbanger in hopes the public will "bite", just silly. Like I posted earlier in a thread, Alabama Adventure's attendance actually FELL when they opened their boomerang. I hope it's a bust, I really do, and I apologize to no one for saying so!

I was told that there is a "twist" involving the coaster. I just wonder if it will be the new trains.

There will be an announcement on FOX News at 5:30am. I can tell you right now, I won't be up that early to see it. I'll just have to check out the website that morning.
