Not determined yet, but I might go opening Sunday along with Passholder night. So I'll have one night dedicated to Fury, and the other to the rest of the park.

Coaster Count: 63

We are coming up Tuesday night and staying at the Lodge at Camp Wilderness so we can be ready to roll for Media Day. We plan to drive back up for Friday evenings' event (but, we will be arriving later). However, we are staying the weekend, so we will have the opportunity to enjoy the park all day Saturday and early on Sunday before heading back to metro Atlanta!

We hope to meet up with many of the Carowinds Connection members!

I got to say, I'm getting pretty excited about Wednesday. I have a feeling the line for the front seat will be pretty bad, seeing as the media will be getting reaction shots as they ride. I wonder if they restrict the front seat to true media, only. Hopefully the media will be too scared to ride it more than once.

I'm sure there will be plenty of rides to be had. The only people who are going to be interested in marathon riding are the coaster nerds. As I recall Intimidator media day was a walk-on for the coaster pretty much the whole time.

Anyone know what how early you can show up for the media event? The email just said to be there by a certain time.

I'm with you sharebear. It's been a year of speculation and the big day will be here tomorrow!
I'm very happy that I've joined this forum. It's always great to know people who love the same thing(s) that I do. To be honest, had I not joined this forum, I probable would have had entirely different plans for my future. So, thanks everyone! See you all tomorrow!
