Saturday was the annual ACE event at Carowinds. With the popularity of Coaster Stock, this left us with only 22 attendees. That made for some great ERT sessions, which will probably never be repeated after this year with the addition of a certain B&M.
Anyway, here we go. I didn't take a lot of park pics, because frankly I've been to the park thousands of times, and you've probably seen all those pics anyway.
Here we go...
You can see the base of the lift has arrived. Word from the park is that the lift hill will be done by October 31!
I see you gray supports out there. I didn't forget you.
On the way to our construction tour hosted by the park, we got a unique angle of the batwing on Afterburn that you normally can't ever get to.
Got this pic? No, I didn't think so.
Got gas?
More rebar in the ground.
Strange pine tree with branches only on one side.
She's got a ticket to ride, and she don't care... One of the cars that's off the track.

What in the world is a Carrick bend?
Time for lunch.
Something is missing here.
Carolina reference #121,083? Check.
I like this trend, but they look kinda meh.
This is so me.
Uh oh, Six Flags is taking over.
No wait! They are being taken over by Disney!
Gah!
Did sweatbands come back in style while I was sleeping?
I guess so.
Got to have at least one Skytower shot.
Uh oh, one of the birds from Mystery Mine escaped. Keep your boots on.
Bart Kinzel, General Manger did a nice Q&A for us.
LOL at Darth Vadar in the background.
And that's all for this time around. Thanks to Carowinds and ACE for another great, relaxed event. Looking forward to an intimidating lineup next year!
