Carowinds put the final piece of the Fury325 lift hill into place today. We used this opportunity to provide a Fury325-Sized Construction Update for you.

Fury325 Hard Hats. This is a construction area after all. .

What awaited us.

Lots of work being done on the Fury325 Station.

The main attraction of the day, finishing Fury325’s record breaking 325-foot drop.

Just one more piece to go!

Fury325’s drop really was a sight to behold up close.

The Final Piece of track was equipped with an American Flag, as well as a Christmas Tree. We were told that “the Carolinas’ biggest holiday present” would be underneath. ‘Tis the season.

Going up…

And up…

Almost there!

Will it fit?

It was about this point that Carowinds VP and General Manager Mike Fehnel exclaimed “it fits!”

A wide angle of the drop. 81 Degrees!

Construction workers fitting the final track piece into place.

Almost there!

As close as I could get to tell that the track was very close to complete!

You’ll be going 95 miles per hour…right…about…here.

Now that the lift hill is done, time for work on the rest of the track to begin!
