For this month, we'll see who can make the best B&M or Vekoma Flying!
Here are the rules :
- The lift hill must be inverted for B&M and Sit down for Vekoma.
- The train must be at least of 6 cars or more.
- Must have a lake and trees.
- Must have a Pretzel loop if you are doing a B&M.
- Must have a loop if you are doing a Vekoma.
- No MCBR. (Mid-Course Brake Run)
- Must have a pre-lift section. (Turn or maybe inversion)
- You can use an Inverted train if you are doing a B&M.
You have to send me at least 2 pictures of your roller coaster and an off-ride video. PM me when you are finished. You can use Scream Machine if you're more confortable with it.
The contest ended on October 31th.
Votes will be on early November.
GOOD LUCK to everyone!

^It doesn't. Flying Dutchman is the closest thing.

Can we just use the invert train? And when your making a Vekoma, You start on your back, and the lift isnt inverted either.

Ok, I edited the rules. Now, let's begin this Contest.

Just wondering, what constitutes a "pre-drop" section? Like, the B&M sort of small predrop, or any drop before the main one?
Yes, any drop before the main one and any turn.

Umm, that's kind of a dumb rule. If you really want to make a unique coaster, it will most mikey have a predrop. Hang on, ALL vekomaz must have a predrop so the can flip over.
When they flip over it's a part of the drop.

Mine is actually quite interesting. It will hopefully be allowed. Just take out the predrop rule. Its pointless.
This is what my lift is like. Im doing a Vekoma, there is no roll after it though. If i need to redo the predrop, I would need to scrap the whole thing...
