Also because of the big car and the not-so-complete supports it is very shaky, as kodi43 said. Add diagonal supports, connect major supports to each other, and pin the supports to the ground with more diagonal supports.

You have got to work on that shaping, there is a major bump like every two feet. Also connect all of you're supports with a base, that way it won't shake as much.

It looks like your losing alot of height very quickly. Try to beef up the supports too. Good luck!

Update:

I completed the coaster, and all I need to do is to build a station, and try to work on the supports.

Here are the pics.

Overview:

Just to let you guys know, the coaster is being moved to the basement. Why? Because some guy is coming to my house next week to clean the floor in my living room, and all the furniture in the living room has to be placed in the guest room.

How the hell are you gonna move that without completely destroying it? It's almost fallen apart as is.

uhh......I'll just take out the tubing and take down sections of the coaster. I'm not going to completely destroy it, I'm just taking it apart by section.
