don't you think thats a bit big? I suppose I could change the greys with red, reds with granite. Would that still work?

look about where it gets caught,
I think its because you need to build a little bit, the tubing is all bent out, and making it extremely hard for the car to move along (yes, to that extent)
so build on round the corner and out of the corner (down the out hill) and it should work
it seems to have tons of speed,

EEDIAT: sorry EDIT: try banking the corner too,

Listen:
The drop is bumpy, the pullout is way too sharp.
These things kill speed...
Try to smooth out what you can.
But, DON'T cancel this coaster!

sorry to say guys afer everyone has said not to cancel I have been forced to cancel right after the nice banked turn I completed.
REASONS
1. We are leaving for 1 week to Switzerland for skiing (WOOT)
2. When we get back apparently my grandparents from Australia are moving into my room.
3. I can't fit it out the door so It had to be demolished.
