Well, I've had this up for awhile, so I decided it was time to stop being a lazy piece of crap, and upload some pictures. I don't really have a launch mechanism yet, and I'm way to lazy to make something insane, so don't expect something cool. I just wanted to make the launch track look really badass.

Did that make sense? I hope so.

Anyway, before I make myself look any more stupid, here are some pictures.
CAT KONG!!!!!!!!

It looks great and the supports are sturdy but why would make that launch so high?

Lol, you should theme it around Cat Kong and make fake buildings beneath the launch and have it snake its way through a town.

That'd be pretty intense.

I have to agree it does look rather badass, but hell, I would ride it :D

It would be even more intense if, along with the buildings, designed some Cat Kong Knex Amnitronics. Haha.

That launch better not move an inch with all of that supporting. It looks pretty boss right now, and I can't wait to see the final result.

The launch looks already inpressive it self:P
I'm wondering how the coaster would look like when its finished.

Wow, that thing looks crazy to be a lunched coaster, so make something impressive after it to show it off! I also think I spotted a new type of in-track guide if I am not mistaken.

Not a big fan of the track dipping after the launch...

I think the dip after the launch in a great Idea. Immediately following the G's of the launch you would get the negative G's of the cars dropping. The "Double freakout". I want to ride this.

Jesus. Wasn't expecting so many comments. Thank you for all the positive feedback. I really appreciate it. I worked on the pullout and first turn. The end isn't fully supported, and it looks kinda screwy, but I promise it'll be fixed when I finish supporting it.

This turn will go beyond 180 degrees, how much? I don't know. This turn is going to be massive, so it might take awhile, and I might have to make the launch at like a 45 degree angel towards the wall.

Other than that last maybe, 6 inches, BE HARSH.

The banking should start 1-2 gray rods sooner, in my estimation.

Yeah, I agree with steel as well. As soon as it hits the bottom of the drop it should start banking and turning.
