I was thinking the exact same thing. :lol: :lol:

Considering they leave different front gate lights on and off all week, they probably just turned them off.

Looks like the news story is slowly dying and we can talk about something else like how many people lost their lunch on Saturday. :D Normal people, not just enthusiasts, are finally realizing that this story isn't newsworthy.

Good because it's so ridiculous! I would have ZERO problem getting on Fury and feeling totally safe. The only thing I would be paranoid about is if I was NOT in the front row and someone in a row in front of me had a phone or something like that in their hand to fly back and bash me in the head at 95mph

I shared what Jonathan posted.....
The clock may be ticking but I don't know what for. It ain't a competition, if anything Carowinds Fansites and coaster fansites in general should repost it and get the media's attention.
Aww Jarvis, you read my tagline.

I shared it on my Facebook page. I have had so many people share the online news articles concerning Fury 325 and this is the perfect response. Thanks! :D

"The system is doing exactly what it's supposed to do. It will not send a train over that hill until everything is clear," Tommy Petty of the Labor Department's Elevator and Amusement Device Bureau told Time Warner Cable News. "Nobody has ever been evacuated. Nobody has ever been injured, but everybody wants to talk about it.”
