Excuse the double post, but someone want to test this for me?

They have that design for space. High thrills narrow footprint. That's what they are marketing I'm sure

I rode it the year it came out. It was around 11g's

Originally posted by JellyBeans It kinda looks high on the positives, how many does it pull? spiked at 5.3 around the first turn. Working on that. http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/593/richard3d2.png Originally posted by disaster249 I think the last hill looks a bit lopsided, lowering the descent ...

Originally posted by Wing-Over Layout definitely looks interesting from the top, although there may be a tad too many consecutive overbanks. An airtime hill or two might help break up the monotony a bit. Speaking of hills, the shaping of your last one is way off. Hills of that height don't tend to ...

So I'm still trying to get a hang of NL and I think I'm getting close. At least in terms of track design. Still can't do supports well. actually I do them terribly lol. The prefabs are for scale. I haven't decided of I'm going to do customs yt but they will at least look better than they do now. It ...

banned because you watched

I think that it is also up to us to make new and unique elements. Why make coasters for fun, also I have seen several ideas take off in NL from fans and make their way to real rides in some form. Pretzel Loop was one. There is a lot that we can do ourselves we should try lol. Have a contest for it

Originally posted by Yaminub Why cant you just use BENDING lims.

Originally posted by ProZach626 Originally posted by hyyyper It could be possible. Probably hard as hell to manufacture as the fins and openings would have to line up exactly on every place in the roll, but it is possible. Being a manufacturing analyst, I agree with this. The fins would be very pri...

Guys, look at the position Six Flags is taking now. Instead of letting their rides rot until they fall, or just razing them with years of life left like they historically have. The new management has put considerable effort into revitalizing their legendary and iconic coasters. I think it would have...

Originally posted by Coasterkidmwm Cause you're an engineer and all you can you do that right? wait..... wha? anyway, while it does look interesting, the point is to reprofile exsisting rides. The way I see it working best is to take a wooden coaster you havee already made and making it twice as in...

<<<< gay

So SFMM gets a Zacspin and we get Chairswing towers... [/living in ohio]

Not that wooden coasters should emulate steel coasters, I think that there should be a larger group of elements for wooden coasters designed for wooden coasters.

Not that all of that would be needed. But why is it still sooo hard to build a wooden coaster with a freaking loop in it? People have been screwing it up for over 100 years. Really? And secondly, what do you mean gimmicks? Gimmicks are like special effects or lasers or things that make a sucky ride ...

At least for a while. When I moved my c: crashed and windows died. So I posted a file from way back that I sent out to testers for feedback. Hopefully I can get it running within the next month, but I dunno yet. If I can somehow get the files I will replace with the completed one. But please ride an...

Originally posted by maxamaxam yeah okay, but take in account that voyage has a unique setting with the landscape and all, just wait untill that new GCI in Asia. GG's are almost all higher then the average GCI Good point... I would hope that they would get something unique. I've been promoting GG m...

wow. I think its cool. Reminds me of the S&S Sonic Boom

Well... I do really like Kentucky Rumbler. But I don't think it was anywhere near Voyage imo. Plus Voyage is #1 and K.R. only got #16th (I do think thats too low though) GG has 3 in the top ten and GCI only has two. So if I had a park and two companies were neck and neck in fan base, I would go for ...

Originally posted by Freddie A Gravity Group ride at Cedar Point would last about two hours before it got rough. any wooden coaster at CP would get rough, they don't take care of them well. I like GCI but to me their coasters are kinda dull compared to GG. Don't get me wrong, they arent actually du...

And if you're refering to when I said "not busting my balls" coaster, I was actually talking about Magnum. I got a bruise from that ride. Its gotten horribly rough over the past few years. The worst ball-buster for me is Ride of Steel at Darien Lake. OMG! The return trip after the last helix tried ...

I think Cedar Point should build TWO new coasters at one time. They could build a wicked maurer sohne spinning coaster, AND a decent gravity group wooden coaster for under 15 mil. There isn't a good spinner here in OH or really anywhere close. Exterminator is a grat dark ride, but the layout is too ...

First of all, Mean Streak is a Wooden Coaster, not a Mine Train. Just like Texas Giant was a wooden coaster. Gemini can't go, it was a world record holder when it was built and we have lost too many legendary coasters already. Not too many coasters at the park are suitable "building blocks" for thos...
