I would consider county fairs as a Carolina tradition.

[Jonathan]

Yeah, I agree. Sounds like the most likely thing that is being hinted at. If County Fair is getting things we know there are at least 3 locations now with the 2 NC packages.

I think carowinds will be getting a giant wheel similar to cedar points.

[Jonathan]

That would be an awesome addition!

I want to see a giant frisbee, and some of the teasers could indicate that. But I would rather see the Huss version like Cedar Point and Kings Island, rather than the Mondial version at Kings Island.

And there are also hints that could imply a screaming swing like Barnstormer or Sky Hawk. Or a launched wing coaster similar to Thunderbird. But I don't think they are planning a new coaster just yet, only 2 years after Fury. And no advance site preparation work has been done, so I am ruling that out. But a screaming swing and a giant frisbee would be great additions.

It would be great if we had a giant wheel at a newly renovated south gate in which one of the midways goes underneath the wheel. That would be a nice entry statement
To see a giant 100'+ ferris wheel and walk under neath it.

Afterburn is the entry statement.

The hints I am most intrigued about are the "four more" and the "jam" reference. The jam could imply some connection to Knott's Berry Farm, and I believe there was even a tweet to that regard from Carowinds PR. Just not exactly sure what that means. And the "four more" is curious because originally they had speculated 5 new flat rides according to media reports. So what does the "four more" really mean?

[tylerSC]

But I do think "Carolina tradition" refers to an expansion of the County Fair. And the something old, something new could indeed mean a Vortex conversion as some have suggested. But I would still like to see a giant frisbee or a screaming swing as some of the other hints could imply. And a launched coaster and GCI woodie are still needed in the years to come. But let's wait and see what Thursday brings.

[FamousAmos]

Well, just to add to the fire, Knots did get Voyage to the Iron Reef.

Also...

Several references to "wings".

Tearing down fences.
Season pass holders will rejoice.
(and a bunch of hints similar to what have already been said several times)

My prediction was just the 5 rides we know about, a ferris wheel, and a winterfest.

I just can't place the "wings" into that stuff, except maybe for themeing. So although I know it is entirely unrealistic, my fingers are still crossed for a new "Wright Brothers Wings" coaster anyway.
