I am going to be making a racing coaster next after I

take pics of Tornado. I made a similar version of what it will look like in real lift. The

only differences are that it will be more compact then that because rct2 is limited and

there will be 1 loop on each side, but I could not make one on the other side. But

things may change because I may not have enough pieces or something like that!

Construction may start tomorrow, but it is very doubtful of that. Also, could someone

help me with a name for the coaster. Thanks!

[knex crazy]

1.raceing chariots (you know what i mean)

2.hunter

3.turbo race

4.(my favorate) greace lightnin at

thunder road (its where the white car and the black car duel and for your station it

could be one of those 70sor 80s diner like on xcselorator)

[coasterfreak11]

Those are possibilites. Anyone else have some

names??

[sixflagsfreak56]

Hey thats sounds and looks like a good coaster!

You have a good history with racing coaster so hopefully this will be the same as your

previous. I have an idea name: RACIN BULLETS. And one side could be a name

of a gun and the other side could be a name of a gun. Just a thought. Probebly not a

good one. Anways good luck with the building and the corkscrews they can be a

pain.

[coasterfreak11]

I do like the name, but I am not into guns. I thought of

Racer which is really original, but it does get the point across! Haha! More

names are appreciated!

[sixflagsfreak56]

I just thought of a new theme!

What

if you theme it to fighter planes and name one side Alpha and the other Bravo. (I was

looking at my k'nex jet and it gave me the idea)

[CostaKid]

You could go:
Duelin' Banjoes
Greezed

Lightning: T-Bird vs. Scorpions (From the movie Greeze)
Liquid Steel

BTW, looks like a great coaster.

[RollercoasterC]

What bout
Ecks vs Server
Freddy vs

Jason
Spy vs Spy
etc.

[GregM]

Here are some name ideas:

1.

Windjammer's Revenge

2. Supercollider: Proton vs Electron. The

slogan would be "Choose your charge!"

3.

Conflict!

4. Double Trouble

5. Cola Wars: Coke vs

Pepsi

6. Silicon Struggle: Microsoft vs Apple

7. Gruesome

Twosome

8. Long Distance Dipper Duel: AT&T vs MCI

Well that's about all I could think of. I hope the ideas you did not like

at least made you laugh.

CostaKid,

did you ever see my old RCT park, Land Of Song And Dance? Just wondering...

[coasterfreak11]

I like those names! They gave me a

chuckle! But I really like Double Trouble and Conflict and Gruesome Twosome

is hilarious!! I think today I am going to tear down Tornado and possibly

start on the station!

[penguin]

How about Coaster Haven Race: SFMM vs CP.

Just a thought.
OR
Disney Fight: Eisner vs(Roy O.) Disney. Another

thought

~Matt (I'm mbcoasters with a new name)

[CostaKid]

No, I haven't seen your RCT park. Why? Lemme

guess, one of the names was one of your coasters? Sorry if you copyrighted the name

or anything.

[GregM]

Costakid, I had a dueling woodie in that park called

Dueling Banjos and a racing woodie with the Grease theme T'Birds vs

Scorpions. The whole park had a music theme with each ride named after a popular

song. No, I do not have them copyrighted, I just thought it was funny that you

mentioned those names.

coasterfreak,

I'm looking forward to your racing coaster. My next model will also be a racer,

but it will include many improvements based on lessons learned from my previous

effort. I hope it works out for you.

[coasterfreak11]

Well, I started construction today and I am currently

working on the lift, but this is what I did have finished about 5 minutes ago. More

names are appreciated!

[CostaKid]

Well, I got Duelen Banjoes from this song my dad was

listening to and one of my sisters all time fav. movies is Greeze. Im sorry bout that. At

least you didn't have Liquid Steel in there!

[jmrtc89]

Hey, it does look like a cool track design, but I just

realized that the right track has all the inside turns. Now, there technically is nothing

wrong with this, except that it's not much of a racing coaster, more of a

"the right side woops the left sides ###### in a race coaster." So they

wont necessariy be syncronized through the elements.

[GregM]

At least

you didn't have Liquid Steel in

there

I don't know any

songs called Liquid Steel, or I might have used that one too.

coasterfreak,

I just now looked at your racing coaster track design and I agree with jmrtc89. I

would change the design so that the curves alternate right and left. It won't be

much of a race the way it is now.

[coasterfreak11]

I did realize that when I was designing it, but I still

think that it will be somewhat of a close race, and even if it is not such a great race,

that is okay with me, as long as each side will work! Here is a new pic with

part of the lift! Tomorrow I will probably finish the lift and build the

station!

[GregM]

It might be somewhat close if you let the train

on the outside have a head start on the train on the inside track. Otherwise, I think the

inside train will make it half way through the layout before the outside train reaches

the first drop.

[jmrtc89]

I also noticed that your using a hell of a lot of ties in

the station. Interesting taken that that is the least intense part of the ride. But im just a

structural freak, thats all.
