^lol

Two things. The launch need more connections. Add track spine on every "bar" and add a chain guide to ever "bar".

So the motor sets the launch up, and the torque of the motor holds it until you move it out of the way, awesome!

I like the lights going down the launch. But pull in of the immelman should be more gradual and not all one radius.

Once again. How hard is it to put chain guides along the launch? It will help the launch to not snag form time to time and will make the car gain a TINY bit of speed.

Apart from that just adjust the pull-in! I like the spine. It looks really strong!

Yeah, could you get a test vid, you want your first element as big as possible, so you are able to get more speed!

If the launch is powerful enough and you've got the pieces; get it to 3 or 4 greys tall. Other than that, shaping is alright.
