Nice job! I can't wait for the ending, how much speed is left too?
You changed the ending succesfully. The part you just built fits better in the lay-out than the 8-figure element you first had in mind.
Make sure that in this coaster the track or supports aren't shaking anywhere. Shaking on a woodie looks a little strange. I hope you get what I mean. On the other hand, your track is super smooth, keep it up!![]()
What straight spot?
Thanks!
Thanks! Still wondering about the lift hill...
Not a lot. The trains are also running like crap. Going to spend some time tuning both.
Its pretty stable overall. The elevated turn after the air hill might need some extra support. Otherwise its solid.
Thanks!
Well the track work is done.
This will be the entrance to the station. The exit will be on the other side.
Enjoy!

Very nice GCI-coaster. Fits completely in their style, and it is long. How come you can get your track that long. Well done!
Great job on this coaster, I love knex wooden coasters. Is this coaster for a contest on this site by any chance, and are you making a roof for the station? Can't wait for a test video!
Ya. Its for the airtime contest.
Weighted trains and lubricant combined with strong track and supports allow you to make long layouts.
You are such a troll.
Station roof and the exit and entrance ramps are done. I put a storage track on the side so I have a place to put the second train when I am not running two. I just need to get the trains and NXT running smoothly and I will post a test video of it running with two trains. Plus I don't think I ever did an explanation of how the NXT works with the Knex. Anyway, pictures bellow.
Enjoy!

Love the station! Very simplistic and well done.
Beautiful. Definitely one of my favorite woodies ever, and that was with RCK (rollercoasterkid) around.

Thanks! That was the goal.
Thanks! RCK made some epic stuff.
I hope so. I defiantly feel that this is my best work but there are a lot of good coaster being built right now.
I really wanted to make the ride interact with the station. Its good to see I achieved my goal.
Ya, he's just trollin'.
Just to prove that it is working:

So Summer Heat... I've counted 8 definite spots of airtime (including predrop turn into the drop) and 4 spots that you could make an argument for. And this definitely counts as a family coaster, I mean have you ever seen a woodie with height restriction higher than 48 inches?

Great...another contest that I wont win because I was one upped by someone else! Amazing coaster. I still love that fly by in the station. Really is an awesome touch. Good luck in the contest!!
Great job on this coaster, the beginning reminds me of my wooden coaster renegade that I built!
This is fantastic. The layout flows so nicely. Good job
thanx CC10
Another GREAT woodie. The station fly by is awesome. Love that so many are being built.
Awesome drop! It has really great flow.![]()

Wow. I'm speechless. This is fantastic. Excellent Job on this build.

Thank you to everyone for commenting. I really appreciate the help.
My only current problem is that my good train recently blew a truck. It broke in such a place that the whole thing needed to be replaced and the lube I put on the new truck got on the other trains slowing the whole thing down and causing it not to clear the course. Meaning, I need to re break in the train. Which takes a while. Its a odd problem and I'm going to data base the coaster soon so I can enter it in the contest. I just want to ensure everyone that their will be a final video for this coaster and I will not take it down until I have a good one.
