Have you ever thought of having the 0-g roll go over the track instead?

Yeah, those turns do look pretty bad. They don't flow well at all.

^^It's not that it's not smooth, it's not shaped well.

I'll consider that bitching...

Ok. I will change it, hopefully into something not so piece consuming.

Again, no update.

They look more like 0-Gs to me because corkscrews are wider I think. But awesome anyway. You may want to add some lateral supports aswell, if you have the pieces.
