Okay guys, time for a Slim Track (SL) from me. I have:
1 Renegade Run
2 Screamin' Serpent
2 Suitcase.

As for the name, I don't know. I will update maybe on Monday. I don't know how tall it will be. And no color theming will be on this SL coaster.
Please comment.

I would say something like "Sounds cool" but you gave me no detail on what your doing, what-so-ever :)

We should do a build off if your starting right now:) I'm working on a Slim-Track aswell.

^ I actually do have a layout: Lift Hill, Drop, overbank turn, loop, station. I know it sucks but I only have 1 Renegade Run.

Okay. I know I said I would have an update today, but it's not really an update. I'm just showing you what method of lift hill I'm using (the only reason I'm this far is because I've had a busy week). Method:

Similar to the one on rollerdude's Monarchy:

Don't expect an update for a while. Maybe next week.

Almost everyone uses that method, haha. Oh, and if you want to make it stronger, take out the 3-D connectors under the track and replace them with half moon connectors. That will prevent your lift from sagging.

And it saves pieces, 3-D connectors and the base rod!

^^ Yeah, I just wanted to finish that part of the lift to show you. I also used that on Millenium Falcon.
^Yeah, it does that, too.
