I love your new water coaster, it looks

VERY realistic. Will the car go speeding past the water? What are you going to do to

get all the water in a controlled space like that, are you going to put a box of some sort

around the track?? If this were a real ride, I'd be running to get in line,

that's some fantastic work :P

It is a real ride. Perolus Plunge is

where he got the layout. The only difference is that PP is a flume ride and his uses

coaster track.

Go Broncos!

The curcuit has been compelted! The team is

now adding the motors to the chain lift and tire transports. Also the sttel underwork

for the turn around at the ground. And before you know it, there will be water in the

pool!

Do the tire transports actually work? Seems like

under the car it is hollow so nothing could grip them when they rotate on the rod axle.

It would still be very nice and realistic to seem some even if they don't work.

Are you going to put like a steel fence around the track at the bottom where the car

impacts the water so that it doesn't splash everywhere? Can't wait to see

pics!! :)

1. SPLASH DOWN has been cancelled.

I'm sorry but it's not going to work out with this. I support the people who

stuck by me for accomplishing it.


Yep, the project has been cancelled acording to his farewell post.
