What?? When did I imply there was anything wrong with your opinion? I was just sharing my opinion on the intensity of the ride, as well as my opinion on spinning... I do apologize if it came off as rude or demeaning...

Yea you are right Icon has 4 cars, I knew there was one. I think our trains will be like the ones on icon.

Two of Mack’s spinning coasters are themed to snakes: Sierra Sidewinder, and more recently, Cobra’s Curse. Cars don’t need to look like snakes for it to be snake-themed.
I hear you. But just because Time traveler just opened, and "Sierra Sidewinder and Cobra's Curse" have spinning cars doesn't mean you automatically assume it's a spinning coaster. I'm sure the park is not focused on adding a spinning feature to a ride just because other parks recently opened up spinning coasters. They could, but I highly doubt it. The end result will be a world class coaster that will add to the parks lineup.

I never said that two snake-themed spinning coasters meant Carowinds is definitely getting a spinning coaster, I just said it's not out of the realm of possibilities for a spinning coaster to be themed to snakes.

It very well could be a standard launched coaster, I just think a spinning variant would make more sense for the park from a marketing perspective.

Sorry, it's okay. Now that I think of it I shouldn't have taken it into offense. Sorry.

Regardless, the writings on the wa yet people here still don’t read it. And read way into stuff that has nothing to do with anything.

Come spring of next year you’ll all be In line and begging to ride regardless.

That's pretty easy to say from the perspective of someone who knows what Project Alpha actually is. Everyone else is just speculating based on the rather limited information we have in front of us right now. Some posters are taking things a bit too far, but there's still room for debate with the facts currently available.

Quoted for truth.

We have way more info at this stage than I think any other significant project in the past....I am still shocked at the amount of work that has been done so far on this project, I mean we could be looking at footers within the next month

I think there’s still a pretty large chance those blueprints aren’t real. Yes they look professional but how easy is it just to take some old ones and make it look new. They could very well be real. But I think some people are taking any peice of information they get and writing it in stone.
