so far i have the drop redone and am starting on the first tear drop loop. currently i am still using the lift hill from the first design but i will be modding it after i get going on this build.
so the top of the tear drop is 1 gray rod lower than the crest of the lift, do you think i will have enough speed to make it through? i know the shaping is off on the loop and i will be adding some tubes to help support it, but what do you think of my new progress?

The turn on your drop is too elongated. Compare these three pictures. The train is facing the loop about half-way down the drop. The steepness of your drop looks fine, but try to tighten up the first part of your turn and make the bottom bigger.
About like this:
I grew up admiring this coaster and I'm excited to see it being built. Nice choice, Sir.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

i really hope i will have enough momentum to get through the entire layout. do you think it will work?
so do any of you use roller coaster tycoon to design your coasters?

As far as making it through the layout, for most recreations it is quite difficult but possible if you build it strong, weigh your cars and lubricate them.

The one thing I see that needs work is the shape of the bottom of your drop.
Right now, you have some straight spots, and sharp spot at the bottom.
From about 3 granites up, try to make that one big, smooth curve.

Another thing I'd watch though for a recreation is the angle of the lift hill because I don't think the lift hill is 45 degrees on the actual ride. Just something to think about.
i will be reworking the lift hill because the angle is way off. i just used the lift i already had built.
i will work on the bottom of the drop. should i move the loop closer to the bottom of the drop of just make the pullout shallower?
