^ is correct. Fix that. Otherwise, it's great.

The entrance to the loop looks strait. Also, I think the car is going too slow through the loop to make it around the second time.

^There is coming a spike with a chain ( i think so ). I think it looks good only the straight pull in, but it's a side project and it dont need to be perfect.

The spike will have a lift on it just like Mr. Freeze.

I see a sharp spot at the beginning of the loop.

Okay, I see it too. Thanks!

EDIT: it might not have a lift, but I'll try.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Just a little teaser...



BTW I'm going to add brakes on the other side, so it should have a gentler stop.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

No comments?

Okay, well I've finally made some good friction brakes. Here's a test video:

[big builder145]

look'n good,
but do those breaks effect the launch or, is the car going so fast that it isn't a problem..

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ The car is going so fast that there is little to no difference in its speed.

I finished the loop:





How does it look?

[Dirtcrusher]

It looks like the best loop I've ever seen! It isn't too circular, neither too tear shaped.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ Wow, thanks!






and a random but kinda cool pic:


Now all I need to do is make it work somehow

Please comment! Oh, and any name suggestions?

[coasterfanatic11]

Name: Detonator(spelling?)
And can I please see those pics of the launch mechanism? thanks!

EDIT: wow! 550 posts already!

Um VOODOO ,It so cool I want to see a video

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ That's a really good name...Voodoo...

I'm still working on the spike mechanisms right now. I'm not going to post any more videos until the final video.

[Cardsandcoasters]

Nice work! I'm looking foreward to seeing how that lift works.

[RCT2123]

Looks awesome for a small coaster. I can't wait to see the whole thing in action...

[Off-topic] Wait, does that have something to do when I said Voodoo in the chat room when someone mentioned Possessed? Since Dorney's impulse was renamed from Voodoo to Possessed... [/Off-topic]

...But yeah, it looks good, although you might have a sharp spot right where the chain starts on the spike.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ I think in the chat room I asked if anyone had any name suggestions and he said VOODOO about a minute later but no one realized what he was talking about.

Oh, I see the sharp spot. Thanks guys!

[~stεεlspectrum~]

I cannot get the spike's lift to work!

I think I may turn it into a Schwarzkopf Shuttle Loop (which has no lift on its spike) and make it out of boxes. Since I'm redoing the loop, I'll probably make it bigger too.

[iam2fast4u]

How does the lift on the spike work? or I guess I should say how is it supposed to work?

I love the shaping on this coaster, excellent job.

[da master826]

Oh well, try to get the lift to work, and if it doesn't do the Schwarzkopf thing. Also if your naming it Voodoo I have the perfect song for you! Voodoo Dance I performed this song in band, so that's how I knew about it.
