What do you think of this coaster so far? Net Force is almost done, so this is on the backburner!

Not bad, but try to see if you can make the track a bit more convoluted and labyrinth-like., for example, by adding more cross-overs.

The idea behind Big Fun was to make a ride that will fit in an area similar in size to what is needed for a Boomerang.

This ride reminds me of Thunder Run.

I said it was a Big Fun Custom. Also I made it about 200 by 100.

If you gonna throw the poop, need to be able to explain the poop.

EDIT: The drop need to have a more consistent radius instead of the quarter wild mouse turn at the top. And in order for you to safely call it a GCI, your gonna need to be bank those turns.

Make it more compact. The way it is now looks like it's too spread out, especially for a GCI Big Fun.
Also, how many moments of airtime does this coaster have in the front seat?

The drop looks terribly under banked and uncomfortable

What he's trying to say is, other than the brakes, station, and lift, I don't think GCI's have straight sections of track.

Looks nothing like a GCI, maybe CCI, maybe Dinn, but not GCI. Too many straight sections, not enough twisty crossovers and such.

Okay, maybe I should trash this and completely restart.

Or should I make it an old PTC coaster?

You might do that since the layout already reminds me of Thunder Run at the empty lot where Kentucky Kingdom used to be.

The coaster represents no style that gci has ever done. You need to spend a ton more time on a coaster. Half of these hard hat coasters are yours, quality not quantity, dude.
