should I be talking when most of my Xcelerators turn to rubbish within 24 hours.
First of, the tower is wrong, look at this pic to see why.
The overbanks are not right,
they are just elevated normal turns, and they look very rough.
Supports
also look very weak as well, try making more of them next time.
Fix these
things and you have a good ride.

more like a custom design but with a similar layout. The top hat is unique. I like the
turns after the top hat because they look fun to ride through. Nice coaster.

magnetic breaking.
Rebuilt. Rehashed. Refined.

Dragster, the coaster always goes pretty slow over the top. Sometimes it just creeps
along and barely makes it over. I doubt that squirrel's coaster would have high
Gs on the top hat unless it whipped through the top hat with lots of speed.

banked i cant get the suports in the right spots.
I got it to work and look
good so now i'am working on the second over bank.
I'am
having trouble with my second over banked turn, it almost makes it though, but it
won't, i have pulled the rubberband back as far as i can, but it still will not
complete the circit.
edit: fixed

Squirrel, lets se a pic of those supports so that we can get an idea of it. Also,
use WD-40. Sometimes, even if a doesn't hit anything, the train can hit itself or
the cross ties when a piece of track is to sharp. Make sure everything is smooth too.
Another thing about supports, make sure the whole track has good supports, not just
certain parts.

What did you do to get it to
work?
somebody suggested it before, either that or he decided to add supports to his coaster.
