I play alone, I work alone. I'll take the critisism, and you can keep the glory.

That is sorta how I made my impluse a few
summers back (a while ago at least) I think I still have a pic somewhere on my
computer....
Hey, whatta ya know, I found it....
Here is a pic,
according to the image properites, I uploaded it to my computer on September 19th,
2002. Which pretty much means that I did make it two summers ago....wow....thats a
long time ago....
Anyways, you can see that I used a more complex way, I
can't really tell if your way is better though, it seems effeicient though.

Nd9 if you build it that way it won't be realistic
because wicked twister has heartline twists.

I would think that the spikes wouldn't be very
stable without supports and fall over when the train is launched, but good luck!

thin I'd like to see it.
I have 3 SS seta and a Rippen Rocket, and I have a
friend with 2 sets who is willing to let me borrow some pieces.
I am a little
worried about the spikes being flimsy, but I think I can make it strong enough.
Update: Both spikes and launch are complete, now I just have to build supports for
them.
Also, before I forget, when I left I was building a hyper coaster that I
eventually finished, but never posted pics because it lost to much speed in the
turnaround and failed to work properly, just in case anyone was wondering about it.

Can a mod plz close this topic? Construction was
finished but whenever I launched it the force from the launch caused everything to
shake pretty bad, and the weight of the train, along with the shaking, the front spike
kept falling over.
