  • 2009 FALL Newsletter
    The Southern Scream Volume XII, Issue 2, Fall 2009 For ACE members in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, & the Florida panhandle Getting Intimidated at Carowinds in 2010 by Max Cannon Intimidator, a B&M hyper coaster, will premiere at the park for the 2010 season. A hyper coaster for Carowinds has been the subject of much speculation over the years (and no, it won’t go under the bridge.) When the park opened this year, the log flume attraction was boarded up. The attraction itself disappeared and the whole area was being cleaned up. Something big was coming. Now, we know how big. Intimidator, named after the popular NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt, is being billed as the largest single investment in the park’s 37 year history. This investment will stand at 232 ft tall, the tallest B&M coaster in North America and the 8th tallest overall in the US. It will have seven drops, one each for Earnhardt’s seven championships, that will range from 211 ft to 48ft. In addition to the first 211 foot drop, the second (178-feet) and third (151-feet) hills are also taller than any roller coaster at Carowinds. This behemoth was change the face of the park in a major way. The coaster will reach up to 80mph along the 5300 plus feet of red track and grey supports, which will parallel the main guest parking lot and the turnaround will shadow over the South Gate entrance. Other features of the coaster will include: an “S” curve, a Carrick bend (AKA a panoramic u-turn), and an initial 211 ft drop at a 74 degree angle.

  • ACRONYM 11 - Round 2
    ACRONYM 11 - Round 2 1. This athlete gave a historic congressional testimony against actor Paul Robeson during a ​ season in which he earned his only batting title and MVP award. This player was the first ever MLB Rookie of the Year winner and was first signed by Branch (*) Rickey, who ​ scouted him from the Kansas City Monarchs. Major League Baseball commemorates this man every April 15, in which all players wear his jersey number. The Brooklyn Dodgers employed, for 10 points, what player whose number 42 is retired league-wide and who broke baseball's color barrier? ANSWER: Jackie Robinson (or Jack Roosevelt Robinson) <Nelson> ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. The star of this film parasailed into a promotional event for it at the 2017 Cannes Film ​ Festival. Several of this film’s characters seek to aid Alex, a teenager who nearly fails to contact his crush Addie McCallister. This film's protagonist, (*) Gene, befriends a princess ​ named Jailbreak who is voiced by Anna Faris. Those characters in this film try to avoid deletion and the villainous Smiler by fleeing Textopolis. Patrick Stewart voices a pile of poop in, for 10 points, what reviled and pointless 2017 film about smiley faces? ANSWER: The Emoji Movie <Nelson> ​ ​ 3. Description acceptable. In the Tekken video game series, Kazuya Mishima uses this type ​ ​ ​ of action to defeat his father Heihachi. A superhero whose real name is Johnny Blaze attempts to cure his adoptive father's cancer by taking this action. The subtitle of the vintage-looking 2017 video game (*) Cuphead says not to take this action. Legendarily, blues ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ musician Robert Johnson took this action at a crossroads to gain his musical abilities.

Additional benefits for teams: Preferred rates/schedule for travel teams at local hotels. Register Now Overview What these two have in common is that they are double-launch coasters manufactured by Intamin. Both reach a top speed of 70 mph. What they don't have in common is that one (Volcano) is an inverted coaster – officially a suspended catapult coaster coaster – and the other is a blitz coaster riding on the track. Volcano, located in Kings Dominion in Doswell, VA, opened in 1998 and Maverick, located in Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH, opened in 2007. Layout, Elements and Theming Volcano, whose theme is evident from its name, consists of 2,757 feet of track wrapped around an artificial mountain and volcano. It features four inversions: a rollout and three rolls of heart. Maverick, with a Western theme, boasts 4,450 feet of track in a more or less out and rear layout. It is equipped with two inversions in the form of a twisted horseshoe roll. Vulcano operates three trains containing four cars with drivers seated two in two rows for a total capacity of 16 drivers.
