Well you have the right idea. But there are some pretty big problems.

1. Your supports are sturdy, but they need to conform to the coaster. Not the coaster conform to the supports.

2. Your drop is straight. Try to make it with a nice curve to it.

3. Your loop is mis-shapen. It needs to be a nice tear drop shape. You can get alot more height out of that loop if you build it right.

4. Your lift's crest is horribly small. Look at some pictures of real coasters to see how you can shape it better.

You have potential. With a few pointers and some trial & error you'll be making some sweet coasters fairly quickly.



Having fun at other people's expense

Here I'll get a picture of a loop that might help you get the right shape.

I guesse this might help, but it doesent have a top support.

It looks like an egg... Try to make it more of a tear drop shape.

How are you going to get a MCBR, 3 elements, and a brake run with 2 1/2 grays height worth of speed.

Can we please have an overview to see whereabouts in the layout you are? I would put a corkscrew and mabe a helix if you have the speed. Good work.
