Second layout, definately.

[NitroDude319]

The second layout is way better.

Second layout, easily!

EDIT: Oh lord! A 3 word Gump-post!

Not good..

Yeah the second layout looks coolest!

[Jesperdude]

I think the second is for the win! (and maybe I can stretch it out a little more).
Can someone post a picture of that turn I am making (after the 1st hill)? (I suck @ RCDB.)

And all hail to Gump!

Maybe you could take out that huge support off the side of the lift to give you a bit more pieces. But yes, definitely the second layout. And the turn looks really undersupported, especially in the middle.

Wow that is good but the final turn that you have built in the video shakes like crazy. But my gusse is that if you finish the layout and it all gets atached together then you will be good to go. Looks very good. Is this going to be your last coaster or do you lan to build more after this coaster is done?

EDIT: Is there going to be a station?

Great thinking! I was running out of yellow rods a lot. I can replace the big support maybe with tube supports, because it's still a very little bit shaky.
I will work the supports now.
Also, I said the turn isn't ready at all, I just wanted to have the shape first:)
What DO we think of the shape anyway?

Yup. Parallel to the lift.

I think that the turn has 2 sharp spots, in the exact same spots on either side of the turn.
I personally prefer the second layout plan, and Ill look for a pic of it right now.

[Loop De Loop]

Well ot to go against everyone else but the firs one has more Gs and is more entertainging in real life. Like on maginum XL200. I would do the first one it I were you.

[msoccerkidm]

i found a pic like you asked. it is like your turn in a way.

I vote do the second one, but make the layout longer than that!

[msoccerkidm]

↑ he said he is running out of pieces. that is why he chose the 2nd one.

[spooffa]

I think you should do the second layout also because there is more room for a station, so you could brake in there 'cause its probably still going pretty fast.

[Jesperdude]

Trackwork is complete. (Of course) I followed the second layout. The track is connected to the lift as well. It was a horrible job because i also ran out of crosties, and yellow rods.
Now trying to get at least some unnoobish supports.
Work in progress! (And I'm tired to death!)

[LukeIsLuke]

Well, I hope this works out alright, good luck.

[Jesperdude]

Sorry to say, but i failed. The supports ARE noobish.
Even sorrier, I haven't time to fix it and to make a proper station.
So it's complete in my words.

I will start to demolish soon. Pics and video are made.
They're on their way!

[Kool Coaster Kid]

Cool cant wait.

[christian]

This coaster was good. Too bad you had to finish it early with a small layout. I can't wait for the vid and pics!

[Jesperdude]

And that's it. After over a year of no K'nex, and in 6 days. I came up with this.

Dang you build fast! It was very interesting at the beginning but at the end it started to die. you could have done a lot more with this. good though!
