Sylvan Express is a kiddie-looking woodie with an in-line twist and a couple of twisty sections. The ride in "WIP" speeds up for a downward helix, so I'm still adjusting its ideal launch speed. You may want to feel moderate g's for a few seconds there. There's one bonus - a funky lead-in when entering a roll. And as soon as that roll experience is over, you get a sudden dip before a left turn. Never mind the lack of supports and trees. :)

Deere's coasters actually made me want to post mine! Thanks! :D

Hard to control g's on these segments.

Compact but looks pretty fun, I guess.

"500" perhaps by the end of this year.
I will be a Thai citizen if possible in a few years.

I presume you're aiming for an RMC kiddie-style ride - so looks pretty fun! Are you suing the heartline generator for this or any tools?

Suing? I believe *using* ;) No, I always handbuild my tracks. I still suck at using Newton2 though Goku has given me a track file.

I'd take a look into the AHG (auto heartline generator) It'll help you make that roll rotate around the heartline properly (difficult task in NL1!)

More like impossible in NL1. Definitely use AHG, it will make the track come out much better
It's been a long time
