So, as summer fast approaches, I've been working on something...
NOTES:
1: The last picture has more track to support connections, and the possible gear location.
2: Quick question, should I extend the top of the drop?
PICTURES, YAY!
Overhead view
Reverse sort of POV
The drop in place.

@crazyracer: Thanks! And six cars is what I'm planning, unless it turns out to be too heavy.
Expect an update this weekend guys.
Tell me what sort of coaster you want, too!
I have a Geometry exam on Wednesday, and Science on Thursday. I have some crazy math teacher who speaks extremely broken English, and gives us a ton of work, so she'll cut back after the exam. Expect updates on about a weekly basis, till summer.

I am confident you can pull this style drop off with smooth shaping.

Anyways, the crest and drop are done. The lift is about halfway done, and the secret element is coming along nicely. Oops, I mentioned it!
Pictures next time, I promise!

Hey, guys! As promised, I have pictures! Anyways, the crest is complete, as is the drop.
Note 1: The rough scaffolding you see at the end of the ride is a sketch of the high speed air hill that goes before an over-bank that veers left, away from the lift, and goes back toward the base of the lift
Note 2: Hmm, I wonder why I made the lift segment so short? Could this have something to do with the secret element?
Note 3: I need names. I'm thinking it will be a terrain coaster, maybe with a medival theme, and the name could be dragon-ish, like Xlynthian (pronounced: ex-lin-thee-an)
But I am also open to suggestions for names, themes, etc.
Please comment! I need you guys' input!

As for name ideas, I'm not too good at those.

P.S.: Does anybody know why the prediction of the orbit of mercury is more accurate with hyperbolic geometry instead of euclidean geometry?
