Wow. Ok, then there's really nothing you should change. Always make a test vid before you change anything we tell you to.

Move on. You might have to use a booster in the end or before the helix.

With the speed you have you can make the stengal bigger and taller. If you wish to complete this coaster without a booster, make the stengal bigger. Although you still may need a booster anyway.

That's really good! If you can make it back to the station I'll give you a cookie!

there's no way your gonna finish it without a booster or 2.

^^Bigger, but maybe only about a centimeter. Any taller and it for sure won't make it.

Boosters+Painted trains=bad. You'll get white streaks on the booster and the trains if you run this at all consistently...but if it's the only thing that'll make it work then you'll have to i guess.

Looking pretty good, although i would have recommended to go a bit bigger had you been able.

The coaster looks perfect...but it will never make it. Personally, I feel that the cosater would be a lot better if you make it a really good custom coaster, instead of a Goliath recre with 2 boosters.

Lets see what happens... when he completes more of the coaster and it turns out he has enough speed, good for him. But if it doesn't, let him do a custom layout for the rest of the coaster.

as much as i hate to say this, i will have to cancel/postpone the construction of Goliath. my parents are having the wood floors done upstairs so we will have to basically live in our kitchen and basement for a week. my mom says i have to take it down before is weekend and i dont think i could finish it. but i will be reattempting Goliath again, maybe when i get more pieces so i can make it bigger. sorry to cancel another ride. but my mom did say that i could build a small roller coaster in the corner. anyone have any suggestions?

Spaghetti bowl? I'd like to see one, and it would be unique.

It stinks that you had to take Goliath down, but I think it will look and work better if you build it bigger in the future.

A spaghetti bowl is a long compact coaster with lots of twists and turns. I say go for it!

It pretty much launches into a bunch of compact stuffz, hence the name "spaghetti" bowl.

Yeah, if you made a small one of these it would totally be awesome! And I guess it'll be your first inversion, right?
