After finishing my woodie, I want to start planning for my next coaster. I want to build a Intamin Hyper like Thunder Dolphin, or a Looper like Kumba. I've never finished a looper before but I'll try my best to finnish this one. If I build the Hyper part of the coaster will be on a large cabinet to simmulate a building, like Thunder Dolphin. Please reply/vote so I can start building.

Sense know ones voted/commented I think I'm going to build the looper. I really want to show you guys what I can do before I build something huge. And I think the hyper would be better if I get some experience with inversions. Construction will proabably start in the next 2 days.
EDIT:Never mind, I ddnt see the "View Poll Results" button, but Im still leaning towards the Looper.

Well I changed my mind I going with the hyper. But I realized I didnt have enough room for the Thunder Dolphin like hyper. Anyways here are some pictures of the drop.
I think the pullout is to sharp, should I change it?

Looks fine to me, the pull out might have a small sharp spot, but the supports block it a little. Nice Cedar Point poster, too.

^^^^^^&^^^&^^&^ Thanks.
I built half of the next hill it makes it over with good speed. Next Ill probably make a turning pullout like on Dimondback, into a overbank or a hammerhead.

Well, first off, the Cedar Point display in the background looks HORRIBLE, but who cares right? (Just jokin 
)
I like it so far. Keep going.
