If you build it, they will come...
And come they did. Employees training today (and tomorrow), were presented with an offer they couldn't refuse, and many were "Intimidated." Before they came, The Intimidator pit crew was given the unexpected opportunity to race, and of course, we did.

I'll now tell you exactly what I said at the park, "aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!!!"

Thank You.

Did he scream like a little girl? :lol:
Went by to get passes processed, bummed that you guys weren't testing. Guess I'll have to wait another 6 days. Glad all went well.

I think I know the answer is no but did anyone get a pov of the intimidator and put it on youtube?
Also do you have to go through the gift shop to exit?
Again also do you get to pick the seats or will they assign them for you next week?

You have to be a member of the media or run a website like this and request a media day pass through the Carowinds PR department which you can do here: http://www.carowinds.com/public/news/me ... equest.cfm Either that or know somebody getting a media day pass and see if they can get you one too.

Just as I thought, my voice is paying today for how I abused it yesterday. I had a feeling this would happen, especially after riding multiple times and screaming all the way.

I didn't hear you yell once Blue. How was that possible? The ride is a beast!!!

Thanks for riding with me Blue Moon. I hope I didn't wear your left ear out on that first ride. I didn't mean too, I couldn't help it. I heard you tell me on that last ride to quit screaming, but you weren't even sitting near me that time. Was I that loud?

We were going so fast I thought my contacts were going to fly out. I've never had that thought before.

You really weren't, but I have pretty decent hearing. I was joking. :lol:
