Loooooooooooooooong overdue update. The circuit is almost complete. I moved the coaster onto my ping-pong table in order to fit in a drop under the first one and then a rise into an uphill brake run. (shhh it's really a chain lift in disguise;)) Hopefully I'll have the circuit done with in the next few days and then I can start theming.

Pic#2: It looks like your first turn starts unbanking a little early, throwing off your heartlining. Might just be my opinion though...or my laptop's weird screen resolution...
Looking good!

Very unique indeed. I love the little drop off the table. But it could have been a little longer.

This was great! Construction was pretty quick with little updates, but still good.

The little drop just doesn't look right to me.No one said anything was wrong with It so you can just leave it I guess.Everything else looks great considering the space you had.

Overdue Update.

Well I completed the circuit and have stared on the station's new roof, and I'm very happy with the way this is coming along. After I finish the station all I have left to do is some theming and the queue line.

Turn into station

I had to add a little pusher to make the train engage the lift.

Anyways, THIS IS AWESOME! I really want a video! Oh, and what's that clay-looking thing in the 3rd pic?

I would suggest using a faster motor on the mini lift. That will give it some speed.

Really? Try and find it in the first picture...and do you have a better solution?
Anyway, looks good. The turn that goes below the rest of the coaster is a little bumpy, though. Just smooth it out.
