The hill reminds me of Intimidator at Carowinds. Everything looks pretty smooth so far! I'll be expecting a couple of more hills in this. ;)

The signature you have requested is not available at the moment. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Looking good! What about finishing that element and for the next element a hill over the pullout of the first drop?? ;)

Still looking nice and smooth but the first hill shook quite a lot when the train went down the curved drop. The pacing was nice though and the turnaround looks great.

The shaping looks really good. You could use some more base-to-track connections though.

You guys need to stop reading my mind.

After this, I have a pretty good layout in mind. It involves another airhill, a couple helices, and maybe another air hill or two into brakes.

Very cool! I like that overbank a lot. The hill looks very smooth and the pacing of the train is perfect! Keep it up!!

Couple of sharp spots around the bottom of that curving drop in the second picture. I didn't see these before so I'm not sure how that happened but other than that I think you're good to go. Pacing looks excellent as long as it doesn't make that hill because it bounces off the x-tie. Not much more to say really. Great job so far I guess.

Some lateral bracings on the lift might not be a bad idea if you have the pieces. I really like this so far, and you build quite fast, and very well too!

This is looking really good.
Can't believe you've built this much in less than a week.

That curving drop looks much smoother now. The rest of the ride was already shaped perfectly and the pacing in the video is perfect. You certainly don't keep us waiting for updates. :)
