I'll be there for Passholder Preview, I just got a Carowinds annual pass because it's my home park. I was not the biggest fan of this coaster when it got announced (Underwhelmed by how tiny it was compared to the size I was expecting) but I think that could change as soon as I get to ride it in a month's time.

Size don't matter baby.

The ride has seatbelts.

Do people think the trains will feature the full Helix/Icon light package?

 

[Pear]

We've known it would have seatbelts for a while. Trains look really great though!

 

[MLDesigns]

At least these seatbelts buckle into the restraint itself and don't go across your lap

 

[CrashCoaster]

^I assume they will be like DC Rivals's seatbelts, in that they automatically unlock.

 

[Lofty]

Why is it a sad thing that they have seatbelts? Those ones literally make no difference.

 

[CrashCoaster]

It increases loading time and thus decreases the capacity.

 

[Hixee]

Should have guessed it was the capacity you were worried about.

 

[Lofty]

Actually, if it operates well, it barely affects throughput.

Have you ever seen operations at a park such as this..? A lot of the time they work their arses off to ensure maximum throughput.

the zero car looks really silly now we've had a proper look at it.

just looks a bit... squashed.

Ha, I was just thinking that! It's nicely styled, but aww bless, it's just so dinky! It'll look like people are riding one of those kiddy toy cars. Maybe it'll have little plastic horns that you can honk while riding?

The ride has seatbelts.

I've always found the Premier seatbelts to be least obtrusive of all. And I mean, coming from the park that seatbelted the B&M clamshell - are you really surprised?

I've seen enough of the trains now. I want to see testing.

I recall three. You see all of them during a new ride construction.

I love it. I'm actually starting to use his milestone comments to track the progress of new rides.

You can take the ATI out of his name, but you can’t take it out of his heart.

Hate to be a Debbie downer but I do not like those trains... the nose just looks so bizarre and stuck on, it doesn't really flow as a design.
