Vortex
This stand-up was one of B&M's original coasters
(Their third, for those keeping score at home)
Opened in 1992, it was considered one of the greatest coasters ever built
I don't think the same can be said anymore
But it's still a great example of how B&M came out of the gates quickly
With only 2 inversions and around 2000 feet of track, it leaves you wanting a little more
Even so, it's the world best stand-up coaster named Vortex
Top Gun
B&M Returned to Carowinds in 1999 with this 6-inversion inverted coaster
Some say it's like a Montu-light
Rugrat's Runaway Reptar
Vekoma enters the world of suspended coasters
It's a fun family ride, but they can't do anything as well as Arrow
Ricochet
Slowly becoming a coaster that every park has...
Carolina Cyclone
Speaking of Arrow, one of the smoothest double loop-screws
Hurler
A surpringly underrated wooden coaster, it's a shame I really had to use the bathroom during ERT on this ride
BORG Assimilator
Well....sort of...
New for 2004, the brand new BORG Assimilator. New.
Directly from Paramount's Great America
