while building my magnum i realized that with my 4

sets i could build much bigger coasters. so began thinking about some looping

coasters i and you too could create. there is vortex@carowinds which is a simple

stand up coaster, batman and robin@SFGAd and i would use my rr launchers (at least

for the forward part), silver bullet@frontier city which is the first coaster i rode that

had a loop. it is kinda like a simplified laser@dorney park. And ninja@sfsl. Any

thoughts on these or anything to add to the list?

Indeed, four sets can go a really long way. You

could build something as big as Race Thru The Clouds though it would only be with

one track. Four sets is what it took to make the Crazy Comet.

Ninja

sounds like a coaster that would work well as a k'nex model. It's a pretty

simple design and we all know you can make double loops and double corkscrews

work. I thought of doing something along that lines myself sometime.

Whatever you build, I'm sure I'll look forward to seeing it.

What about Viper at gadv or GASM at gadv or even

an invert like B:TR. There's also Batman the Escape.

[CostaKid]

Even though B:TR is small, the multiple invertions and its

compact size would make it darn near impossible. B:TE has too many turns to make it

through the track, Viper would work but you would be extremely lucky to get GASM

to work.

[coasterguy]

i think i may go w/ ninja unless i get a better idea. i

think viper would be alright as well, but gasm would be a real stretch with all the

inversions.

[knex crazy]

i think magnum force at flamingoland

[nitro9003]

What about Stealth, X-Flight, or Batwing?

[Costarking49]

You could try doing Blue Streak. I would like to see

someone try BS once.

Blue Streak would be neat but Shockwaver said he

was building it but I haven't heard much from that project but it wouldn't

be much of a challenge after he does Magnum. I would like to see a coaster similar to

Mantis made with a vertical loop, dive loop, inclined loop, and corkscrew. 4 sets could

build a lot of inversions, especially with RR boosters.

Im thinkin about building Wild Cat at CP. I dont know if

it will work or not but its worth a try.

[Westside7th]

Wild cat would be hard becuse of all the helixes.

Hope your up for a challenge, ssfan!

[ssfan313]

Yes i am because i just got two more sets and a ferris

wheel so that makes 4 sets plus a bunch of misc. peices. BTW i wont get a chance to

start until about 5 or 6 days because im going on vacation!

[Costarking49]

You could try the new coaster at Hershey. That

would be really cool. Sorry for my stupidity but I have been having problems posting

but that was probably from stupidity.
