^^^Well, you'll need a strong motor. Just make the lift vertical with a nice pull in and a 95 degree drop!

^I'd leave the tutorials for now. I think it's wiser to get a good reputation first, building-wise. Then you can start making tutorials if you want. 'Cause I really hate shitty tutorials, and I'm probably not the only one.
And yes, that's heartlining. One of the basic things for a roller coaster, but it can be hard to achieve.

HI!

I don't understand how you think you know how to build with VV track. You built like 2 pieces of absolute *you-know-what* with it. Whoop-de-doo.
