^of course you can use them ;)

Thanks for all the comments! I got a full circuit and the first test runs, but it's still not fully completed. I can't make the double station really working because I'm out of pieces, that's it.

(updating took so long because of my time in England)

Test video
pleaso don't mind the bad quality

Man, that thing runs perfectly! You must have a very powerful launch. The final video for this thing is exciting to think about!

One word. Amazing. Did you move the brakes to after the hill?

This is great, and Maxlaam is right.

I think you should put brakes in the valley between the top hat and the airhill so it goes over it with a more realistic speed :P

Of course, you don't have to.

Thanks for the comments, I appreciate them a lot.
Actually I'm getting bored with this coaster now, although I didn't get the 'hydraulic launch system' to work I think it's fine now, it works perfectly.
I want to make the final vid now, do you guys have some creative ideas for it? I would really like to hear them :)!

The only thing I can say is that you might want to try brakes between the tophat and the airhill, like Old Hag said. But it's not needed. I really hope I can see this coaster in real! It's a GREAT COASTER!!!!

Sweet mother 'o mercy one of the best re-cre's. Sure you couldn't get the brakes on the hill instead a separate straight brakerun?
