Now if the other news sources will grab from CBJ instead of the crap news, we should be good to go. Or better yet, maybe it will just die. I had no less than 8 people approach me at work to ask about it today. I feel like the unofficial Fury 325 Spokesperson.

Jarvis....you killing me with the GIF.

Here's that nice Carowinds skyline picture without passes being advertised.

^^That would make for an interesting model...
But I need to finish the current one first,

Anyone know why Fury is testing?

Anyone know why Fury is testing?

Because it is a dangerous death machine and they need to fix it before even more people die.

Oh true. Forgot about the multiple deaths on this ride.

Calibrating sensors so there aren't so many abrupt interruptions in operations...and more opportunities for unfounded media frenzy? It could be a number of reasons.

I edited this last night. It's a short video showcasing the arrival experience at the park:

State Officials Looking into Fury 325 Stops

http://www.wcnc.com/story/news/local/20 ... /26468635/

and Carowinds response:

The real story here is rides are highly sophisticated attractions with built in control and safety systems. Fury 325 has over 450 sensors. Much like your car, if the check engine light comes on, there may not be a problem but you eventually drive it to see a mechanic. The same thing happens with our rides but we don't wait to have our engineers take a look. The ride stops at designated locations. We realize the stoppage may be a bit of an inconvenience to the guest, but it gives our engineers a few moments to evaluate before sending riders on their way.

Once again – we'd like to reiterate these rides are performing EXACTLY as they are designed to do. We have overlapping layers of inspections for all of our rides, and work hand in hand with regulatory agencies and third party inspectors.

Fury has delivered over a quarter million rides in just five short weeks.

Unfortunately, this news attention won't quit anytime soon. Don't fall into the trap.. We know the truth. Go out and enjoy the ride and park... Speak positively in line, ( I had to explain what was going on last week) tactfully correct the misinformed, if you encounter an issue, in public or here, properly go about the corrective process.
With the response from our own Moderator being read by tens of thousands of people, the 'haters' and 'trolls' will arrive in mass.. Don't let it get to you.

Ride On Peeps!!

BTW, I plan on Friday morning if anyone wants to meet.

[tarheel1231]

I think the park needs to put up a sign near Fury325's entrance that reads something like "due to the complex safety system on the ride, the train will occasionally stop on the lift hill until the ride is cleared for issues." Then maybe WSOC will leave the park alone.

[Mountain3307]

Thunderbird has one like that.. Good idea. Maybe at the front entrance. That way It covers them all..

[sccoasterbear]

Wonder why fire truck is under fury 325 this morning...

And water dummies seem to be in every other row today

[coastergirl3166]

I plan on going to carowinds again on saturday if any of you are going too
