yes, I will be recreating hypersonic XLC and trying to break a world record. A lot of you will think I cant do it but I think I can. It will be challenging for me, but I am up to the challenge. The Coaster will be 37 feet tall and will be made with tube supports. NEGATIVE COMMENTS ARE NOT ACCEPTED! only negative help comments. construction will begin tommorrow and will proboly last for about 4 months maybe more . i want everything to be perfect for this coaster so I will listen to everybody. I will construct small parts in my house, then put it together outside when am finished. It will hopefully have a winter theming if there is snow on the ground. Once I am done, I will have a guiness world record person come to my house and watch me launch the coaster. yes, there will be a final vid for this on youtube. All help is needed for this project. Has anyone recreated HyperSonic?

One the record is 40 feet 2 inches. Look Please do not do this. I think everyone has thought about making a record coaster but hasnt. If this coaster happens it will be a miracle. I want CC10, Jogumpie, and TTD33 to tell you how hard it is to build a tall coaster. Please do not make this especially with tube supports. This is not a negitive comment heres my help DONT USE TUBE SUPPORTS!

EDIT- Yea beat you but I edited when you posted.

37 feet won't break it. Also, tube supports will bend a ton (probably) at that height; box supports win for height.

Here's the world record holder.

EDIT- ^ Beat me.

it will now be 43 feety. if i fail, I will do somwthing for SSC.

[imakecoasters]

This is helpful advice: You may have the plans, but when it comes to pieces, scissor lifts, space, and media, this will take over a year. Also, it's pretty much a waste of time, XD. Gain more experience with small coasters first.

EDIT- Also, you'll need more pieces than Gump, good luck,

^Might as well do something now beacuse you will fail. I want to see you start this, just to see how it will turn out.

[~G3n3rOo2256~]

see all of you are doubting me.

[coastergeekrtc]

I say you go for 50 ft so we can laugh even harder at you when you fail.

[/\ero]

^^Jee, I wonder why. You still have A LOTTTTT of experience to build yourself up on.

[~G3n3rOo2256~]

what if I do recreate this and have sucess. whast will you say to me?

[knexems]

Once we see the first picture, then we'll decide.

150th POST!!!

[coastergeekrtc]

Wake the f up, that's what I will say. Cuz that will only happen in your dreams.

[~G3n3rOo2256~]

i am going to do box supports now not tube.

[imakecoasters]

^^^^ Um.... If you do, it would be in a few years after re-trying the project many times over. Look, we're in doubt because it's not going to happen. We have the experience here, we can tell possible from not possible,

It is possible, but it'll take thousands of dollars of K'nex, and renting space, etc. etc. You'll need a big wallet, and a good brain. From the looks of past coasters, you should gain more experience with small coasters.

You're a small house carpenter trying to build the Empire State Building.

Oh damn, only took you 20 minutes to change something! Pretty soon you will announce it's scaled down, then maybe you will go for the most inversions. And when that fails you will try and make the first Aquatrax, leading to the eventual cancellation of another coaster.

Look, I suggest you go here for info on the real coaster.
