Also, I slipped the bank by making a pole up the lift/launch, and connecting it to the track and bending the track around it (sounds like a lot of work but its not), and i think it came out good.

as ^ said, the turn could be much bigger (and higher). The rest looks good.

Bassically I built a drop about half way to the ground, parrallel to the lift, and then made a 90* banked turn to the left over the lift. The rest of the layout is a surprise. I have the next 2-3 elements layed out.
You'll all enjoy this one.
picsas maybe tonight....

Check out the pics:
I hope you all can understand how I'm making my heartline roll. It work very well. The green cross-ties are obviously going to come out after I build the next element (so it doesn't bend), which'll be a downward helix, sadly near the end of the ride...
Anyway please comment.
