Looks good, I like the support going through the loop, but where is the pull out of the Immelmann going to go? It looks like you'll hit supports on either side.

^Thanks for getting my hopes up that KCM updated. That comment wasn't very necessary if he hasn't updated in over a month.


Did you just contradict yourself ?

Well I started on the station and prelift section. After the loop I am going to try to do a cobra roll and if not an immelemann. I dont think it looks to bad but you can judge. I am going to try to finish the station and all the hardware by next weekend because I am going to have to start working faster with this deadline coming so fast. Here is what I have so far:

In the last pic, the pull-in of the Cobra roll or immelmann looks sharp, other than that, it is excellent.

^^it looks that way in every pic because t is and that really needs to be fixed!

KCM you need to make that pull in start sooner and it should be fine.

I happen to think that the pull-in looks fine. I will judge how it is when you finish the element but so far so good. I think the pre-lift section needs a little tweaking.

I would put about 20* banking on the bottom of that hill because it looks like it would hurt/unsmooth right now. Everything else, IMO, looks alright.

Nice work.

I suggest you lower that station to a height at which the train has just enough potential energy to get to the lift. The pre-drop out of the station just looks too tall. You'd need to bank the bottom more, but that would also screw up the smoothness, because the pull-out is rather small.
So basically, lower that station. That way your end brakes will also be a bit lower and that gives you just a little more speed at the end of the ride.

Hey guy long time no see. I have been so busy this year I have had absolutely no time to build. I am really disappointed to say that this will be canceled. I have been focusing all of my time into school and causing me not to build. My parents were also getting angry with it taking up the living room. That is why I have taken it down. I just can't build like I use to because I just lose interest real fast. Look out for maybe 1 or 2 more coasters from me over the winter but they wont be to big. Sorry to disappoint you guys.See you soon.
