Carowinds Racing Toward 2010


© 2009 whitesoxsfan21 via CarowindsConnection.com

Carowinds held their first ever coaster enthusiast event yesterday, named Coaster Stock, and had a few teasers for fans of the park about their 2010 coaster plans.

No details were announced, but we do have the above sign which features an announcement date of 8.26.09 and some very telling tire tracks. Rumors have swirled that Carowinds' new ride would possibly have a Nascar theme, some going as far as saying that it might involve Dale Earnhardt as well. Me? I have no clue!

There's some photos of the construction site on Carowinds Connection posted here as well, with more and more footers popping up by the day, and the below teaser video that comes to us from You Tube user phantomflyer:

I was catching up on some reading this week and came across the following sentence in an article about IAPPA 2008: "Interestingly, both Intamin and S&S are claiming that they will each debut the world's fastest coaster next season." We already know about Ring Racer, and with this whole racing theme and all... Just sayin'!

DOH! Forgot about F1. I rescind my previous statement! It seemed unlikely anyway, but there are only so many records that can be broken...

What record could this ride break? I'm thinking its just a PR move. Intimidator?
