I'm in agreement about the loop, please change it. Cool layout plan tho.

I like that idea a lot, making a ride like an old-time coaster sounds pretty cool to me! One thing that would be better is if the loop wasn't a perfect circle, but a teardrop from since it really doesn't look as good circular in my opinion.

Alright I'll try and fix the loop today the work on tr over bank. Thank you!

That layout plan sounds excellent. Simple but sweet.

Also as the others mentioned. More tear drop on the loop.

Thank you!! Yup I'll try and fix that loop

Haha yea I guess I do build pretty fast

Do you think you could do a comparison picture of the pullout and loop for me? Where one picture is on top of the other one (not sure what that's called) so I can really see what I need to do

Try using the blue "sticky tack" stuff. It's easier to remove and (I think) is denser.

On the second picture, the highest part of the turn looks a little flat. I don't know if it's supposed to be like that, I just noticed it. The new loop looks great.

Your loop is great! There are a few points that should be changed for the overbank, I made a quick sketch for you:

The black line is about how it should be IMO

Good luck with this, it looks awesome!

Almost perfect! Only thing I see that MIGHT be improved is to un-bank the track a bit, I don't think it should come over 95*. I see this more as an immelman jr., instead of a high-speed overbank.

Still huge improvement on previous update!

Those are major improvements! Great choice to put that helix thing there.

It's even better now. Thanks for the picture RNB, I guess your sketch helped more than my explanation. :P
I like this Turbo-building, it's interesting to follow.

Lop is redone perfect, the overbank looks sweet, can't wait to see what you throw in there next!

Thanks! Although it isn't a "high speed" overbank.

Thank you!! Hopefully you'll like what's next.


Heres a small update. The transition between the overbank and the next element. What do you think?

Nice transition from that over bank, very smooth and flowing. It reminds me of the Alpegiest drop and I love that sort of look, keep it up! Hopefully you can include a corkscrew or some inversions of such in the coaster with it's compact layout, but I'll be looking forwards to see what element is next. :)

You should definitely go for interlocking corkscrews if you have enough speed. Great job!
