so far its coming out great but I might not start building and posting pictures until July some time.
It will have two triggered by the cart jespurths (sp?) launches in it ,tunnels ,and a station, as good as I can make it.
I have part of the lay out drawn but keep in mind after I figured out how huge my drawing would be I decided to make it smaller every where. right there \/

^^^^yeah i know I made the ride ion RCT3 last night off the video i hate how you have to use the hipper twist coaster. I wish they made one that would work better.

this is of the back of my brain, but there may be a way to hook up a lego train motor to the lift, with the engine(powered lego train car, i have 1, and i may show you later) acting as a trigger for the car to hook on... again, this is random... but, the legos may cost some amount...

so have the Motor mounted on an axel with a Large gear,
and have that spin an axel with a small gear on, the on with the small gear will have the chain attatched on regular cogs,
so try Huge Yellow ones powered by the motor, connected to the weeny blue ones on the same rod as the cogs for the chain,
that should double the motor speed.
