sorry to break the good posts so far, but its either the quality (looks like a camera phone's), or the fact that the bottom of the drop, pretzel loop, and turn all shake. try strengthening that by either triple tracking it (if it isnt already) or supporting it more. otherwise, nice job cant wait for final vid!

Well it does shake but hey it's tube supports.I will tripple tube it today but I can't support it more because I'm out of grey rods. Does anyone know how I can bank the turns more without having the turn all the way sidways.

How come you didn't make the layout longer? You certainly have the speed.

To bank turns how you like, you need to use ball in socket joints. Like the ones used for the knex guys. Look closely at Xanadu's supports and you will see how I did it...
