Hi guys,
I figured out real quick that I am absolutely no good at pendulum rides, the main reason for this being that the only type of motor that I own is from the vertical viper.
Anyways, this coaster has to fit in the Phoenix fury box that I own. Pictures!

Wonky transportable support (for later parts of the layout)

Looks good! Seems a nice way to hone in your building skills for a bigger coaster later! Nice base too!
All I'd say is, your structure might be strong, but if the track is not strongly connected to the said structure, supports become less effective. Build a spine and you'll find your speed efficiency will massively increase! :)

Cute little ride you have here. I would like a couple more pictures but for now, I agree with Batwing in that building even a simple spine can have a large effect on speed. Otherwise, keep doing what you're doing.

Thanks for the comments, guys! This means so much to me!:D
Anyways, update:

I finished the turn, and am starting this snake-like group of curves. Enjoy!
