Ohhhhh! I've wanted to know how those brakes worked for a long time, so thanks. The coaster really does look perfect.

Wow I finished the drop faster then I expected. I think that the drop is nice, but you guys will be the judge of that. Pics:

Currently compiling a massive list

I think it gets a bit sharp at the end of the drop.

There's a small sharp spot towards the beggining of the drop, a little after the gears. Maybe if you just raise the track that is on the gears (if you know what I mean), it might help.

Personally, I think it looks a little egg-shaped.

where did this come from? The original layout wouldn't have worked/fit so now Poseidon is a Expedition GeFore/ Mega lite combo. It won't get much higher on the buckel but i'm fine with the hight for what i want to do. Here comes a lot of Pics.

Wow! That is really smooth! The top of the buckel might be a bit sharp though. Other than that, I don't see anything wrong.

Dude, this is crazy! Great drop. Only thing might be in pics 5 and 7, there's a straight spot in the turn's beginning.

^^ & ^^^ I think it looks sharp because of the way it banks. ^ I'll go check that out but it might just be the angle or the way it turns.
Well anyway I've got a test video. It looks like I have more speed then I really do though.

Great job so far, everything is smooth. Just check the buckle for a sharp spot, but it might just be the angle.

You might be able to save some speed by putting supports across the inside of that turn. It looks like it might be able to move or slide when the cars go by.

I like it. Creative and original, yet still majorly realistic. I think the buckel looks good. Just make sure that turn is supported as much as possible. And personally, I think the original Stengel dive on Goliath would be the best option.

Am I the only one who thinks the drop should be more heartlined & flared?

But the rest of it looks good, good job.

Ok well after looking at the space I have i'm going to do a stengel dive. I'm probably going to have to turn the pullout of the buckel so the stengel dive doesn't run into the couch. I'm leaving on a week vacation tonight so no updates for a bit.

Oh and TH. The drop is heartlined and flared enough. It's just really hard to see that it's flared but the drop does over twist and twist back like Expedition GeForce.
