Hi I am making a RR/SS Coaster! Here are the photos! I did not use SS cars because you have to modify the booster to make them go through, I did not want too do that...

The track needs some smoothing, you have sections where it is straight and then curved and straight again, try smoothing it out a bit. If you have the pieces I would add some more support, it will help maintain speed and help the shaping.

^^ Lol, ya my cats would not move for the photo! Also I have only two SS sets and two VV sets... The Sorcerer's Eclipse, a Rippin Rocket set and two VV sets the Hot Shot Video Coaster and the Sonic Blizzard Coaster. ^ I might smooth it out but I don't have many pieces, considering I only have 2 SS sets, the video coaster did come with mostly classic pieces though, which was good. I also still have the two boosters though to speed it up if I have to. I still have to make the station work. All my SS chain went to the lift! I have made the station work a little bit. But it was very flimsy, then the chain broke! The coaster was also originally going to be a winged coaster, as you can see by the width of the station, but the motor could not pull it over the crest! It was also to sharp, but I fixed that. Also, thank you for commenting.

EDIT: Do any of you have a better name for the coaster? I thought that would be a good name because the X ties are yellow and black and the tubing is blue. I will have to use red tubing soon though... I ran out of blue

Here is a picture... I might not be able to actually finish the coaster due to a lack in speed... It works sometimes but other times it will not
Tell me what you think! Should I keep trying to make it work or just give up? Also can you guys think of any better names??? I am stuck, maybe Deja Vu, maybe switch back, I don't know. Tell me your favorite or post one! Thanks!

That is unfortunate. Keep building, the more you build the better you will get. I think your main issue right now is shaping, try building a smaller coaster and make it as smooth as you can.

You should've gone with a smaller coaster to begin with anyway. You could've moved it probably. But good luck on your next ride.
