Since just about everyone has made an invert here, i

though i would give it a try. It is still under construction, as you can see. Here are

some pics. I hope to fit in 2 more invertions since it still has a ton of speed. Pics

Nice drop, first of all. But that vertical loop and turn

look mighty tight and small for the size of the drop (definitely looks top heavy, if an SS

could). It'll be nice to see what it finishes up with, though. Nice work.

That drop looks mighty tall. I would make the loop a

lot bigger and that inverted cutback or whatever you want to a call it. The inversions

should be a lot bigger with all that speed you have. Also, are you going to have

custom cars?

loop looks very painful when you will probably going quite fast

Thanks for the feedback. I was originaly goin to make

them small so i could fit more in (because i only have 2 sets), but now im gonna make

them big and less invertions.

What if you just made the lift a bit shorter so you

could conserve peices and tubing. With 1 and 1/2 sets I built my Voltage invert that

has 2 inversions but could have had more. To conserve tubing and peices, I have

started to make all of my coaster's lifts a lot steeper than 45 degrees.

Update: I have demolished the loop and over bank. In its

place, i made a wrap around Intelman. It is twice as high as the original loop. I plan to

make a inline twist and a corkscrew. Stay tuned!
