Intamin rocket,
57.5mph
3 inversions,
5 overbanked sections of track,
2 trains.

The word Enrapture means - "To transport with rapture; to delight beyond measure" (taken from 'the university English dictionary'), so I figured that it would probably be a pretty good name.

trackwork is 100% complete, smoothed and heartlined. I'm just begining work on the supports tonight. The trackwork in total has taken just over 14 hours of my entirely non-precious time.

I'm not calling for testers or anything, I'm just going to show you the ride at different stage of its develeopment ... well really its just an excuse to spam [:P]

More pictures soon...

oh yeah, and watch out for a B&M inverted coaster with 3D's from Bino Maus, also out soon [:)]

Yeah, if I was to enter the competition, I would have to put this particular project on hold. This is the sort of thing I would do in the comp I guess. Yeah, I guess I will enter the competition actually. As of now and pending further notice, this project is on hold.

But work will still carry on on that B&M inverted coaster I spoke about in the first post [;)] I'm being slightly more secretive about that ride.

Looks good, but i remember the last ride i beta tested for you. It was bumpy as hell, if this is very smooth it would be a cool coaster.

Also the corkscrew looks misshappend from this shot

Well, the last ride you beta tested hadn't been smoothed when you tested it, this one has been smoothed and I believe it to be one of my smoothest tracks, as for once it has no pumping issues. They're easily the two best helix's I've ever made. I know what you mean about the corkscrew, it does look wierd, but it feels right when you are going round it [;)] All together I think this is my best track Technically that I've made so far. That is if the supports are good when they're done
