This is my winter contest coaster, right now I'm building one, and I will build the other later.









don't mind the immelman loop, i'm still working on it.

[metallicais1337]

Well, the entire pullout/pullin looks very cramped, but I'm not going to criticize you for that, because you have to fit it in 5x5x5 grays anyways. Hopefully, you'll make an exact copy and put it on the other side of the cube, then have them interfere with each other in the middle.

^Who cares?, criticize like you would any coaster...

I think this is impossible...

I also think it that the pullout is too small...

-Rct2123:cool:

[Renegade]

The lift looks fine actually, but I'd highly suggest starting the inverting for the 95 earlier, and make a longer/wider pullout.

To every member: But at least make sure we can't flame you for that element yourself:)

The are you going to add the cat to the ride? If so, you stole my vote already;) just kidding, it should be some healthy competition.
I think the drop needs to be less straight.
Second I'm not sure if two roller coasters would fit.

I knew there would be at least one Eurofighter in the Winter Contest. I have to agree with them though; it's too cramped. What I would suggest is a) smooth out the drop [there is a long straight part] and instead of heading straight for the immelman, twist the drop to the right. That way you can lengthen the pullout. Several existing Eurofighters twist if you need reference pics from RCDB. Just my two cents...

[SwimZONE]

could you post a link to one? (yah I'm lazy)
I might have it be a butterfly loop (I think that's what it is), then have a normal loop intertwining that

[The KNex Weasel]

The loop also looks very lopsided, and it should be at least a foot or so away from the tower.

[msoccerkidm]

dangit. i hope you fail...just kidding. your pullout looks small.cramped.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

The only solution to your space issue that I can think of is to make the drop turn 90*. That would give you more room for a loop, and you could improve the drop also.

[coastermaniac]

At first I tought it would be impossible but I came up with a layout idea, I don't know if you like it but here you go.

1.is your lift and drop
2.is a sidewinder
3.is a loop
4. is an helix to the other lift

So basically it is just one coaster mirrored.

[metallicais1337]

^Hmmmm... I was thinking more along the lines of 2 different coasters starting on different sides of the cube, then coming into the middle and doing some fun stuff (that's what she said ), similar to Dueling Dragons.

[SwimZONE]

No, it was gonna be 2 lifts, they each stay in a 5*10*10 granite rod cube. they are next to each other at the station

[SwimZONE]

Well ignore the Post up there, because I got an awsome layout in my head, see who can guess it first.
Here's the pics. (it has a clue in there...)
Circular immelman...

[PlanetSaturn56]

I highly doubt this will work. If you get it to work, it probably won't look that great. I'm not saying that because of how you build but because of the size limits for the contest.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Are they going to be racers? Or are they staying duelers? I'm guessing that's the station there...

[christian]

I'll guess the layout. Mmmm... lets see... Lift, Drop, Immelman, Turn, Station cause that's about all you can do in a 5x5x5 square.

[reaperdoctor]

^nope. my eurofighter is slightly more complicated than that.

(i would start a thread but the computer can't find the memory card from my camera)

if you can, max out the x ties. otherwise you probably won't have much of a chance....

[SwimZONE]

keep in mind they're duelers though...MIB you were very close...add an element in between the immelman, and turn to station, and what do you get?
