I'll just add this in: This is a crazy idea for the layout inspired by CC10's inclination. It starts out the same, but it has a zero-g-roll instead of the barrell roll, and right out of the roll comes a B&M drop, flared, like on Kumba. Then under the zero-g-roll is an immelmann. Again, I don't think many members will like the layout, so it's just a very flexible idea.
Please tell me what you think!

BTW Kumba is an awesome coaster. Have you ever been to that Busch Gardens and ridden it?

Dude, I like that idea. Definitely go for it!
BTW Kumba is an awesome coaster. Have you ever been to that Busch Gardens and ridden it?
Ok, I'll just see what other's think of it, and i'll get going! Thanks!
The biggest coaster i've been on was kraken, so close to Kumba. I'd love to go to ride it though. It would help with the turn after the zero-g-roll. Have you been on it? Respond in a PM.

The Overview:
The Predrop Beginning:
2 choices, this one has a slightly wider predrop/maybe a bit higher:
While this one is the opposite. I'm not sure if there's a big difference. All I did was take out the black track connecting rod, if you follow.

See, the predrop is smaller compared to the size of the lift. Sorry for being nit-picky, but I know you are a really good builder. Wait for other members advice though. The rest looks great!

Don't worry, people were really nit-picky about Luminous's predrop.

^&^^I agree, but I have worked a bit more, and I think it looks better with more of the drop. Here are pics:

In the las pic, it looks straight at the end, but it really isnt' that much. I can also pretty easily shift the track over 1 grey rod if needed.
Please comment!

What part of the drop should be sharper: the angle of descent or the turn sharpness? Thanks!The predrop is much better. But I think the first part of the drop should be a bit sharper. Other than that, great!
Yes, much better. But I think it should start turning again.
What do you mean? Thanks for the comment btw.
