Real quick thoughts:

I have 3 laps on Fury 325 so far, and overall, I'm pretty impressed.

Let me first just say what a pleasure it is to be at a park where they actually care about capacity. The ops have been really pumping out trains today, so that even with roughly a 2 hour wait, the line never stops flowing.

The first half of Fury is very impressive. The first drop is breathtaking, and the speed through the first turn around and banked twists are flat out out stunning. I really thought this might end up as the best damn B&M speed coaster ever built. After the drop underneath the entrance however, Fury becomes a pretty basic B&M hyper. Longer drawn out transitions and floaty airtime hills. Not a bad thing per say, but I was hoping for really fast, low to the ground turns, and at least one ejector hill. Those moments never come though, so what you have is one half GREAT coaster, and a pretty good second half. Overall though, a winner for Carowinds. If Dollywood comes up with an amazing 2016 addition, I'll certainly make another trip.

My Giga rankings:

I305
Millennium Force
Fury 325
Leviathan
Steel Dragon
Intamin: The Force Awakens.

^^ You turned this mini review into a detailed coaster report! The bottom of that first drop would make me comment "THE WIND BLOWS EVERYTHING!" :lol: :)

Nice review Magic - I did wonder about the reports of the ride having ejector time being true. I just can't see B&M changing significantly from their tried and tested formula on such a big landmark project!
