Carowinds 2015 - Fury 325 Is Revealed!

B&M really don't do ejector. Almost every element on any B&M coasters will never (intentionally) go below 0g. The only time ejector has been intentionally incorporated into a B&M coaster (that I can think of off the top of my head) is the speed hill on Shambhala.

^Actually, I do believe the airtime hills on older B&M Hypers hit around -0.3 g's, and somewhere near -0.5 to -0.7 g's on newer models.

^That's why I said intentionally. Just by looking at the parabolic shape of B&M airtime hills you should be able to see that their airtime hills are designed for 0g, you may get different forces in the back or the front, but in the middle of the train you will experience (almost, depending on weather/heat/etc.) the exact forces that the ride was designed around, and on B&M hills it's generally 0g.

Gatekeepers Airtime hill and Goliath(SFOG) both have way less than zero G's. Probably somewhere around -.7 or -.8.

^ God I felt that both of those had 0 airtime. 0.

I have definitely heard that Gatekeeers airtime hill is weak, but I don't know about Goliath.

Legit beautiful.
But why does it look like it is in someone's house

Maybe they decided to take it home for the weekend

Probably in B&M's plant in Ohio.

My dreams of airtime are crushed by a small hill and a trim.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Wow they're building that up fast.

^^
Well, they did say that there would be a trim brake on that hill. Besides, they may or may not use that trim (the trims on B&M hypers aren't always used normally), so there is still hope of airtime there.

[TTD03]

^ Like Nitro. Nitro has 2 trims, they are never used. Ever.

That helix isn't nearly as gigantic as we were led to believe, good thing

That's in one of the building at Carowinds for the tour

Don't forget to source the photos wherever you got them!

The front car is on site at Carowinds.

I'm pretty sure Coaster Crew had someone on site that day reporting. I know In-The-Loop had someone there. But I'm not 100% sure if we did or not.

[TTD03]

^ Cool to know.

We definitely need to look into getting more people out to those kind of things, I think that'd be really cool!

[TTD03]

^ Well we had this topic at some point.

Due to me becoming a staff member for a certain coaster club, I've appointed ScottishObama to be media personnel for Holiday World.

I was given an exciting offer and I couldn't refuse. But I knew I couldn't leave CoasterCrazy without a picture taker and media ready guy for Holiday World. I really love CoasterCrazy and all the people here are amazing and I'll continue to support this site no matter what. ScottishObama is my closest personal friend and whenever I go to Holiday World, he more than likely goes with me. He's a really cool guy. He's gonna take some insanely awesome stuff for the site this year and he's stoked about this year.

What coaster club and what do you do?
