^Good. I want to see it work. By the way, what is the next record you are going after? I want to just see you build a compact coaster, if you know what that means. All your coasters seem to be sloppy and I want you to build a normal sized coaster that has really good quality. Use all those pieces for the best supports ever! Anyways, good job, I guess.

Eh... my coasters ARE normal sized, except Olympus
Now tell me, why do you think my coasters are sloppy?!
And yeah, I know what a compact coaster is: ever seen XYZ??... It's huge, but it IS compact.
Next project will be Dragonia. A park filled with rides (I think there will be 4 coasters).

EDIT: Like with the 20 foot KK, I also had problems with the launch. The train broke several times, and when a piece of the train broke off, I stopped using the rubber band launch. I pushed the train over the top (sometimes rollback, sometimes it worked) and then it worked fine. I just didn't want to break pieces off the train. And yes, I think we captured me launching the coaster by hand

Is the tower structure pushed all the way against the scaffolding? The coaster practically fills the room!

[Jogumpie]

The scaffolding is like 1.5 feet from the structure (look at the ground, and you can see why it is).
The coaster is 57 feet long.

Cool. Wheres the video?

[Jogumpie]

I didn't have a digital video camera, so we used an analog one.
My Dad will have to convert it at his work, but he's rather busy (he just turned 50). And a friend of mine, who made vids with his small, irritating Trust camera (Martian ), lost his internet and is still trying to get it up.

I already had lots of knex, bought much more and had sponsors. I'm counting all of the pieces that were in Olympus now. I'm at 8000 and there is still much left to count.

Where is the video? it won't work for me.

[coastergeekrtc]

I'm sorry but that video was crap and really boring.

Yea, exactly... Lighten up, i'd like to see you do better...

I was a little boring, but you could atleast instead or just saying it is crap tell him how he can make it better.

[coastercrazy10]

I actually agree with Coastergeek. It was really boring. Maybe some music and not showing the car NOT making it over. It looked very un-exciting because you launched it with your hand. But whatever...
