Your micro-supports (the things that connect the track to the base supports) aren't very good chosen. You can see this VERY good in the fourth pic. The whole structure is pushed up to the track because a micro-support is to small. In my opinion, it's better that the micro-supports are a little bit too large then a little bit too small because it would push the base-supports down to the ground.

The bad chosen micro-supports also cause the bumps in the drop and the sharp pull-out.
You must change the connecting piece in the fourth pic just before an orange connector. It would be much better.

At a few places I miss some Crossties. Like the place in the third picture where the real turn start. It's a little bump but you can avoid it by putting a crosstie there.

Sorry for my bad English. But I hope you understand it

What ^ said. There is also a bump here:

^&^^Okay, thanx for your help. I'm changing it right now.
EDIT: I fixed the bumps and the grey rods in the lift hill:


Next is a hill.

[Dirtcrusher]

Sorry for Double Post but is it normal the cars aren't making a 1 grey high hill? The lift is 2 greys high.

[eliavlevy]

It's still bumpy, and a bit undersupported. Also, try to weigh the cars and lube the track with pledge.

Wow that drop is horribly bumby...

[dragon rides]

you might want to raise the amount of cars it has, especially because of its size

[Dirtcrusher]

^I can't, I 'lost' my other cars.

[Dirtcrusher]

I will support it more and weight the cars. I don't think there are bumps in the drop and I can't see them in real.
EDIT: sorry for double post

[Dirtcrusher]

I moved the coaster on my bed because my back is hurting like crap, but I'll move it back on the ground later. I finished supporting the drop:

Pull out/Pull in of the hill:

[Dirtcrusher]

I need comments on the supports, I don't know if they are good or not.

If they don't work now I'm an idiot

[Dirtcrusher]

Are the pictures working now?
Also, I cannot build for a while because my sister comes for the next month, so I have to keep my room clean...

[Dirtcrusher]

My sister finally allowed me to continue on my coaster! And I found my other cars!
But...

Should I use this car or not? It's the end car.

[/\ero]

No, you shouldn't use that car. the top wheels are the most crucial, that car will cause friction and you'll lose speed.

I changed the layout, it's going to be an overbank next to the lifthill. I started the turning pull-out-pull in:
