Coaster Dynamix Floorless
I already started a thread for this coaster but I deleted that so here is the new one.
8 car Hydra train with metal wheels, another one is coming soon.

If you see the long thin wood pieces those are for the railing on the lift.
I have no idea how long it will take me to finish this or what I want the layout to be like. Maybe you guys can draw some pictures for what you want the layout to be.

I thought the Hydra cars were a static model? I've always wanted to purchase a few CD models and just make a coaster as a break from K'Nex every once in a while ( and it wouldn't hurt as much to make tube supports :P ). I like it so far, however, if you are using the Hyrda cars on this coaster, I suggest making that prelift turn banked and like a dip than a normal turn.

Not to digress either, but I would love to see some wing-designed trains by CD, like Furious Baco, X-Flight, and Skyrush.

^The statix trains work on the regular track if you replace the top plastic wheels with metal wheels. I got those wheels from coastershop.de which sells lots of separate coasterdynamix pieces. I probably will change the beginning of the coaster to something more exciting.
I will try to design winged cars if not a wing coaster sometime in the future.

Pretty good work there. When do you plan to have your lift finished?

These are not the final supports!

Looks like a nice smooth drop to me. And the supports look great underneath. Good start. The Hydra train suits the ride.
