May I present you my new roller coaster, Bullet! This coaster will be a B&M looper featuring a loop, a dive loop and a corkscrew. Construction will starts soon. Here is the layout :

Well, I don't know if the drop is great.

It looks REALLY good except for that straight spot. I'm pretty sure it should look a little more like this:

Not exactly like that (cause the drawing isn't that great) but you get the general idea.

I think that Steel's idea would work out perfectly. I like the current smoothness, but indeed, there is a straight piece and it's not very steep at all.

The loop looks lopsided. The supports and the connections should be exactly the same on each half.

to me, it looks like the pullout to the drop is too big. i think that is why the pullin to the loop looks small. anyone else agree? i also agree with DDRman, you should make the loop symetrical.

^^Agreed. What you need to do it even out where the pullin of the loop starts and where the pullout of the drop ends. Plus make the loop symmetrical. Looking pretty good though. Just those small things...

Loop looks good! But in the second picture of the last update, neat the bottom of the pull out it looks like there is a small straight spot.
Other then that looks pretty good.

EDIT: Do you ever take a break from building!?!

I think the loop should be a little wider.

It looks like you could make that track through the loop higher.

That turn definitely needs to be banked more, and I think I see a bump after the dive loop. The layout so far is interesting though.
