Rod, hang in there. Signs are pointing to 2010 being a big year for Carowinds.

I’m one of the 28 First Public Riders this morn. First seat in second car. New trains helped alot. Alot better ride than when in Geauga Lake. new restraints are great, no hard padded bar on your shoulder. has a padded flexable strap on shouders and bar is a good bit from you. Still another little coaster for carowinds. been waiting so long for a great one to arrive, one day it may come.

It was sad to see what happened with Geauga Lake Matt. And you're right, Vekoma Boomerangs are pretty common, but the new train DOES make a difference and makes the cookie cutter coaster at least a little unique.

I anticipate that the new trains will make some difference but I’m just not a fan of cookie cutter coasters. Also, being from around Cleveland it is sad to know that this is a coaster from Geauga Lake.
