Schwarzkopf Looping Racer [NL] (new screens)

[Coasterkidmwm]

I recently decided to create a Schwarzkopf Looping Racer, a ride styled after the Revolution/SooperDooperLooper design. This ride interacts well the terrain, features one loop, and has what I hope is somewhat correct shaping.

I tried to design with ride to be rather family oriented aside from the loop like SooperDooperLooper was. SooperDoopLooper felt exactly like the Whizzer, but with a loop randomly inserted into the ride layout, so I tried to model that with light floater air, and no crazy forces. Minus the G's in the loop (around 4.5 max). This baby runs 4 trains with minimal stacking at the end (under 10 seconds. Since practically all real life rides stack like crazy, if you have a problem with around 5 seconds of it, you can go do something you don't like that involves profanity. Working on the supports now.

looks pretty sweet

Cool

shexee.

Partly hand-built?

Will you be building the traditional supports on the loop like we see on SuperDooperLooper?

[Coasterkidmwm]

Yes I will use the supports, and it was mostly handbuilt. The helices, loop, and a couple other little bits were made with elementary, everything else is handbuilt like the hills and stuff.

I don't think any of us expect this to be less than amazing...

It's not gonna have much adrenaline so don't get your hopes way up lol.

I love the classic style of this one. Nice idea

Added two more screens of supports.

I see you changed the color scheme. Nice supports!

Certainly traditional with that shallow hill into what I would assume is the loop.

I do not think the hill is large enough. How fast does it go through the MCBR?

This is Revolution's hill: http://www.rcdb.com/ig130.htm?picture=4

and another one with the hill going into the loop in the distance: http://www.rcdb.com/ig130.htm?picture=19

Yeah, so the loop is not much smaller than that hill.

[Coasterkidmwm]

It makes it around the loop with slightly over 0 G's at the top and it passes Estop. It's plenty high.

i really like the track layout, very cool.

If any of you have respect for Schwarzkopf coasters, you will like it.

Its not crazy full of adrenaline at all but it pulls off that Schwarzkopf feel very, very well. Right down to low lats with ZERO heartlining - just good use of prebanking and mild shaping.

And yes, that loop hits almost 5 entering and goes to that beautiful floater at the top then back to mid 4's.


If you cant rate this ride based on TRYING to recreate a certain style, dont ride or rate. Its a unique breed of coaster.

Loop Supports!

Hopefully this little bugger and the next two pics[/url] look to scale in terms of the structure size. I can't wait to finish supports and start throwing the foliage everywhere
