^ I hope they post some sort of security around it. We don't want a repeat of the Jarvis/Intimidator humping incident!

I'm surprised that they are in the regular parking lot and not back in the bus lot where the construction is happening.

Because no coaster has ever been discovered by coaster fanatics early...... obviously announcement day is still going to be great as we still dont know anything about what this coaster is going to do.....we just know what kind and color. And names of coasters? who cares they could call this whatever and we still would know its a 300+ b&m.

Oh...I'm not saying me personally releasing! I would never release facts, confirm information, release screenshots...publically. I value my relationship with the park and respect their wishes to do their own confirming and releasing. I don't want to be black listed like some in the past...

Wow when did that track appear? Did they sneak it in there after dark? Must have been hidden because nobody reported sightings coming down 77 from Ohio. But at least it is now confirmed the teal and yellow is for Carowinds.

It looks like the bus lot to me not the regular lot.

I am back from Carowinds Connection Time-Out!

I KNEW IT!

That logo was leaked the EXACT same way Wonder Mountain's Guardian was leaked. I was looking at Carowinds CSS page every morning, I just forgot to do so this morning!

https://www.carowinds.com/css/screen.css

body.honeycomb{ background: #000000 url(/images/structure/bg-body-honeycomb.jpg) no-repeat top center; }
body.swarm-microsite{ background: #000000 url(/images/structure/bg-body-swarm.jpg) no-repeat top center; }

The second picture (which was likely the logo) is no longer active (Carowinds obviously took it down). The first picture is the background of the logo picture that has already posted pretty much confirming that the name of the coaster will be Fury 325.
