^ No, that was at an angle.

Looks good anyway, the pullout could be a tad bigger though.

Yes, It is much better.


Thanks.

Looks good, but just wondering, do any B&M hypers have a drop that steep?


Probably not.

Looks good anyway, the pullout could be a tad bigger though.


Thanks, but the pullout actually starts at 4 grays up, and the whole coaster is 7.5 ish.

Update time! I'm working on the Goliath la Ronde turnaround.

Yes, it's leaning.

The drop's pullout and the pullin of the next hill are really unproportional. I guess it just looks messed up because of your almost-vertical drop...O_o

It looks like it's turning too much to the right. It should only be about, or a little more than, 45 degrees.

The pullout's are fine, real coasters have that all the time...

Your banking is strange, and there are bumps on the way going up...

^^It's too late to fix the drop even if it was too steep. I think it's fine.

I love how you found a way to make a non-peice consuming chain guide! I bet it works just as good as it looks. I might just use it on some of my later coasters.

^I'm saying, it LOOKS like the lift is sagging, anyone else agree with me that in the third picture, that was from spider man 2?

Should've said something yesterday. I would change it if I didn't have a deadline.

No, the lift is not sagging. The chain guide may be, but not the lift.

There are two huge bumps in the second half of the turnaround. When the the drop starts and when the tracks becomes parellel. Other than that it looks great.

it looks awesome why don't you lower it a little that's the more obvious thing to do. it wouldn't be that hard.

more weight might fix it though. good luck
