i am almost finished with the pretzel turn, ill have pics
when i finish the turn. with the amount of speed it gets after doing half of the pretzel
turn i think it may not make it, but im not sure. im not sure if i want to add a lift if it
doesnt make it cause id at least want it too look real. but if it doesnt quite make it
back i will still finish it up and post it on my site.

What
about making the lift a little higher?
that is what i did just now. the coaster is now about 5 1/2 feet high instead of
like 4 feet so i think it has a good chance of finishing the layout. the only think now is i
have to stiffen the supports and i am probably going to redo my pretzel turn since it is
kinda shaky and the right side isnt exactly how i want it.
i have a pic of the
pretzel turn from before, i hope that by tomorrow night i will have the pretzel turn
redone along with some bunny hops.

update: i am about half way through redoing my pretzel
turn. i also added more supports for the extra speed it will get from the taller lift. i
will have a new pic of the pretzel turn once i finish it.

phew!! just a little more to go! i have
5 of the final bunny hops done and plenty of speed. i think i can finish it tomorrow. i
have been trying to make the bunny hops as accurate as possible by placing them
where they should such as the fifth being right next to the valley after the first drop.
after i finish the layout i will put some tunnels where they should. i have a pic of it so
far (mind the mess )
thanx for
all the compliments and support! there were a few times where i felt there was
no hope for the coaster.
