CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A second crack or break was found in Carowinds largest roller coaster, the state agency inspecting Fury 325 confirmed Friday. Fury 325 has been closed since June 30 after a park visitor spotted a broken support beam as a cart full of riders went by the pillar.
Bolliger & Mabillard Consulting Engineers Inc., the Swiss company that designed and built the roller coaster, replaced the steel column in mid-July. Inspections by B&M, Carowinds, a third-party testing firm and North Carolina Department of Labor’s Elevator and Amusement Device Bureau are ongoing.
