Yes, we just covered Carowinds two days ago, but they’re probably the busiest park in the world right now, construction work of some kind is taking place in almost every corner of park. Intimidator is closing in on completion, the transition from Nickelodeon Central to Planet Snoopy is in full force, another year of Thunder Road rehab is underway, and Carolina Cyclone’s painting should...
The last week has seen very significant milestones for both Intimidator at Carowinds and Intimidator 305 at Kings Dominion and the rides are getting closer and closer to opening.
First off, the first of 3 trains arrived at Carowinds yesterday and has been placed in the storage sheds. It’s pretty hard to see due to the fact that the trains are still wrapped...

GCI has been around for almost 14 years, while Gravity Group introduced their first creation, Hades in 2005.
Both companies have received their fair share of...
