The pullin could be a bit bigger. Looking good so far.

I think it is upside down right now, you are just trying to confuse us. It is really an inverted, launched, eurofighter. :D

Glad I could clear that up for everyone...

Anyway it looks good so far but the color coding is wacky.

You are building a launched Eurofighter? Looks great by the way.

If only I had more space/pieces/time.

^Ding ding ding!!! You are correct!!

Update 3

This coaster is going not going to be built that much in a coulple of weeks due to I'm going to Cedar Point and after that I'm having company over and I will have to move stuff around to fit more people in my room. So all the K'NEX will be put in a corner and closets. So I will be able to get some stuff done but not that much.:( But once they leave I will be building in all my free time and more updates for you guys!:)

Sorry for the bump and double post.
UPDATE 4

This is update 4 and I got a lot done.

1. I finished the supports for the tophat.

2. I almost have all the track work done on the tophat.

3. I'm painting the actual carts that are going on this 2 different colors.

4. Does anyone know to good colors? I was going to paint them red with white pin stripes but I remember that JPcoaster had carts with those colors (I think) and I didn't want to copy him. I might have them black with red pin stripes. Or reverse.

5.I went to Cedar Point and had a amazing time!! Sad part I didn't go on Maverick,Top Thrill Dragster, Mantis, Mill Force, Mean Streak, Magnum Xl 200, and Wicked Twister.

6.And finally onto the pictures.

An old picture with Top Kills Dragster still up.

The coaster looks pretty good to me. But I don't understand your Cedar Point statement... so you went there but didn't ride any of the good rides? The only good coasters left are Raptor, Gemini, and maybe Disaster Transport.

This reminds me of an old coaster of mine called Shoot Out.

It looks nice and can definitely go on but I think the tower is too wide for the height. Should be closer to 2 yellows wide.

Chubs is right. The shaping looks good, but with this height the tower should be less wide. Good luck! :)

Also, the pullin/pullout are way undersupported. The structure should be a lot closer to the track, and you need more connections from the track to the supports.

UUhhhmm YOu should've saw the lines! There was a sign that said that it would take 3 hours to get on the ride and I was NOT going to wait.

Maybe there is big waiting for the rides....

Thanks! I think about that.

like I said to Chubs I'll think abput that.

Ok I will add more supports.

did u see project cp or mythos?


I saw Mythos, But which is Project cp?
