Here's my new project that I hope to finish before school starts. It will be a VV Hyper which will include a buckle 3 airtime hills and a helix and will be 4 and 1/2 greys high.

That looks like it would shake like hell with 3 or more cars.
Nevertheless, I likey. The crest looks a tiny bit sharp and the pullin appears to have a straight spot, but other than that, Joe approves.

Now when it comes to VV track, I'm not the best with shaping and all but I think it looks good from what you show us.
Also, when you post Photobucket pictures to the thread, simply click on the IMG code(scroll over picture and click on IMG code) for it and paste it in here. The code should look something like this if you've copied the right one:

If it's a hyper the drop should not be straight down; that would be a dive machine.

I wasn't able to get a picture showing the angle of the drop, but now I fixed the drop and it's off maybe 3 to 5 degrees of 90 degrees.

Here's what I have at the end of day 1. I've decide I'm going to change the layout some and have just two airtime hills and add 2 bunny hops to the station and also I'm taking out the helix due to speed issues. I'll hopefully have a test video up tomorrow. (I build fast).

It all looks good, except for picture 3. You need to fix up those big sharps spots and bumps. Great work otherwise.
Also, it's less attractive (at least for me) to have to click on all these links to see the photos. What you can do is, when on the photobucket album or the photo itself, instead of copying and pasting the address bar, copy the IMG code (it's on the right side of your screen, in a box titled "v share this photo"). You can then paste that in your post on here. You can just PM me if you need any more help.

I think that you won't have enough speed for the layout if you travel away from the lift so much.

I need to put a straighter piece of track there. And thanks for the help.

I'm going to put a test video up hopefully today showing how much speed it still has. If not I'll just lube my cars. And thanks I do need to try and keep it closer to lift.

No, but you can also try to support the track more.

Hillman's powdered graphite
Pledge (i use)
Silicone Spray
BUT NOT WD-40 (or whatever it's called)
EDIT: ^Ignore that, I was thinking about cleaning cars.

A good lube for anything that needs a lightweight lubrication is to use lightweight synthetic car motor oil. (if your lucky your dad has some in the garage)
If not, go to walmart, and get 0W-5w synthetic motor oil, it will cost you $5 usd and will last your a lifetime!!
WD-40 is not a lubricant (it is a water displacement)
Pledge is also NOT A LUBRICANT!!! (it is a polish)
Your coaster looks very nice, take your time and keep up the good work.
