I saw this the other day. I didn't know Talon was moving to Carowinds.

It's actually a pretty cool commercial, as they go.

Actually that is Silver Bullet and Ghostrider. Atleast they threw Vortex in there. I doubt we will ever get personalized commericals.

Oops, I was wondering about the wooden coaster. That would make sense.

Bor, er Nighthawk was in there (with me I'm sure as I was in the old b-roll) as well as Vortex as you stated.

There are probably people in MN wondering where a flying coaster is at Valleyfair.

Wonder what percentage of the GP will realize those coasters aren't actually at the park...

Thinking back, they (and many other parks) pull this stunt with brochures too.

In 1977, Carowinds used Magic Mountain's "Revolution" on the front cover of the park's brochure, advertising it as White Lightnin'.

Well this years park maps is not the real carolina cobra.

I've always noticed that Carowinds uses false coasters in their ads. haha. I remember being like, 9, and seeing a commercial and saying "What? I've never seen that there."

[bgwfreak]

I was looking through my old brochures the other day and they actually used Borg on ours for a few years there. lol

I still don't get why they never use our Top, er, Afterburn. I know for a fact they took pictures of it and did b-roll not too long ago. Or maybe Scott was just pissed at me for asking that question and threw that out there.

Also the B&M invert that carowinds advertises isn't Top, er Afterburn its Flight Deck at Cal. Great America

Even on the new carolina cobra cups they do not have carolina cobra on it. It is a different ride, could not tell which one though.
