I did have a deadline that's why I only had a tower. And if mine didn't get wrecked by kids at my school and weekend indoor soccer leagues I would've made mine better than it was. But the monstrosity this is is not what I'm deissing, it is an incredible feat, but I wish that with the unlimited pieces you had and hieght it could've been more.

I Think I could have made It wider than yours but I had a set deadline to finish this thing when I don't believe you had one. I work on this for like 4 months when you 8.

I had 5, October 6, 2005 to February 28, 2006 for one. And two, mine was not protected, I started over 3 times because of the people who broke it.

I think its amazing. About the width, people dont seem to realize how many parts it takes to stretch it one! red rod either way all the way up the tower. To make it realistic, it would have had to be insanely wide and probably take *atleast* twice the pieces. I doubt that wouldve worked...

[djwouter14]

it's sooooooo big i higher than my house

[Garth]

It's shorter than mine
When can we expect a video?

[Top_Thrill_Dragster33]

Bout two weeks. ya. word.

[Antinos]

For those people talking about the width, it isn't very hard to do. split the tower in two, and about every 10 or so red rods, add a beam of box supports going sideways about 5 rods long. Does that sound hard? No...

^As long as you also use diagonals.

Well, TTD33. "Particle Accelerator" looks tall, but that's just about it. I admit Olympus had some flaws including a big one called the 'pull-out hill', but this one looks just meh... They're not much shaping flaws (duh, most of the coaster is straight!), but it just looks you took the easy way. I think you could better call it a tower with coaster track attached to it than a coaster.

Ohw btw. Some Dutch guys are trying to break your record.

^dang. already trying to break the record?
do they belong to SSC?

[Jogumpie]

They just gave up, lol.

[mtlfootballer10]

hahaha. i have a feeling this will stand a while as the tallest coaster.
TTD33, are you planning to take it down? and if you are when?

[Top_Thrill_Dragster33]

It was taken down monday.

[mtlfootballer10]

did u help taking it down?
how long was the 40 footer up?

[poizone]

I'll make one 1, not. It would need to many knex that I don't have, and I'd have to take my beemer/intamin mix coaster down.

^where in nj?
i live there also =]

[QAFS]

Well, i may sound a dick, but it's too bad that the record is broken by a coaster that isn't worth it.

[TripleHelix]

Well, would you rather have this as the record or Aussum (or whatever), the hated wannabe record holder?

[QAFS]

Well, this one is slightly better than Aussam, but it still looks really bad.

[RCT2123]

That is your opinion, but I completely disagree with you. This coaster was no where close to the terribleness (lol I know) of Aussam. This coaster was actually somewhat good, and the height is so rediculous that you have to give TTD33 props...
