Well. After CopyCat got KingKonged by my younger brother, I've moved on to a new project. I'm not sure what to call it yet, but it's a B&M hyper inspired by fury 325.

The first element (due to my limited space) will be fury's treble clef element. All I have right now is the lift hill, but man. It's hands down the best looking lift hill I've ever made.

That’s a good looking lifthill! Is the curved track at the bottom left part of it?

Finally got back to working on this now that my first semester of college is over. To answer a question above, no. The curved track at the bottom is not part of this coaster. It was part of the one my brother destroyed. Anyway, I finished the drop and the first element with box supports I'm working on converting to tubes. I'll post that once its got its final supports. Anyway, here's the drop.

There's some minor tweaking I'm still working on, but I'm happy enough with it to share it.

^ after the drop is an immelman just because of space reasons. After that its an overbank that leads right into a tough spot to figure out what to do after. The immelman still needs tweaking and eye-tracking again as I think it's still a bit bumpy on exit.

This is what I'm talking about with the exit of the overbank being in an inconvenient spot.

I'm open for suggestions and ideas on what to do with it. I can't really have it turn more on exit because that's where I get out of bed in the morning, and throwing a dive loop or immelman there again is too repetitive for my liking.
That's all for now,

To be honest the Immelmann looks okay, maybe have the pullout of the overbank at half height? So you've got a bit more space before the wall?
