^I know, could be just marketing, but I still have my hopes up
Revenge of the Mystery Crates!

Cedar Fair needs to do a better job at picking up their deliveries to different parks! :wink:
Concerning the name of the coaster, Thrill Network is onto something concerning the phrase "Lightning really does strike twice!", referring to the old White Lightnin' shuttle loop the park had in the late 80s.
The coaster will not be named White Lightnin', but will be named in reference to the original ride. Kind of how Hydra: the Revenge plays off the old Hercules woodie at Dorney.

With a racing theme established, could they be saying it is as fast as lightning?

^They are.
As much as I hate NASCAR, a ride in my Top 10 is themed after racing.. and then I do have Evel Kinevel right at #11..
Knowing how Cedar Fair themes.. it will all be gone in a matter of years anyway, no matter how good the ride is. They should just be like Millennium Force and not theme it at all.

A NASCAR ride? Launch, into turn, into flat stretch the same length as the launch track/station/final brakes, into turn, repeat a hundred and whatnot times until the train has ran empty of momentum, then stop and unload?
Sounds boring.
Here's hoping for another Intamin, not necessarily a Giga, but a Hyper/accelerator of sorts. Still, if this is going to be big, it will be sweet either way. Good doesn't really matter, I won't be riding it any time soon either way.
So all in all, I hope for an aestethically pleasing ride, good or not.

Anyone else think this is interesting:

Nothing really helpful but has as to be "official" in the sense it was made by Carowinds cause of the domain correct?
Another question. Did we ever discover where that yellow B&M track ended up that was at the Ohio plant last year? Never really kept up with that, there is maybe a small chance it had something to do with this.
