Ok thanks Real. That'll be 10pm MT. So after the track tube modification will the track be ready to send to me?

Ok, here's a brand new update.

The first two pictures are of the places where I thought I'd use the 4 rail track. The third picture is of the whole layout. If there is somewhere you think that 4 rail track would be more realistic than 3 rail let me know. Supports will be started within the hour. Expect updates about every two or three days.

^No actually I didn't copy you. My helix after drop was posted 5 days before your mention of your helix after your drop. Therefore, it could be you who copied me.

You really need to stop with those immature/off-topic comments, they are starting to piss me off, are you five years old or something? Are you a special little boy?? Because if you are one of these two, then I will be happy to stop bashing you about your immaturity, but until then you need to stop those gay comments....

BTW, this coaster looks absoulutly phenomanial, honestly, it looks like it has some very nice airtime too. [;)]

For gods sake coastercrazy, you seriously need to grow up, we've told you politely before to stop making rediculous one worded posts all the time. Once or twice, everyone does it but nothing BUT one word immature responses like WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE or WOWWWWW or YAYYYYY and things my 4 yr old cousin says, I'll be happy to give more evidence. Just grow up some and use some common sense, you'll go far.

Edit: I forgot to say how awsome that track works. I think the way you've shaped that track is wicked, I'm looking forward to it :) I want to test the very final copy please ;) tllgbbassoon@aim.com

I dunno if the final version will be available for testing. I'll have to think about that. I've gotten supports for the beginning part started. The supports look kinda funky because they go around some of the track. I'll post a picture to show.

I really have to give a big thanks to Real for help with smoothing my track out.

Would it be possible for anyone to get me some satellite photos of Goliath at Walibi World/SFH? I need some help with the supports and Goliath is the perfect thing for me to base my supports on. It's about as tall as my coaster so that's why its so good for me to use.

Edit: Update!

As you can see I have gotten the lift supports done. Any comments?

Update!

Today's update involves more supports in several different areas.

Let me know what you think of my supports. This is my first time doing fully custom supports for a large scale coaster. One of my big questions about the supports is whether there are too many supports on the first turn, and if I should have the same support spacing on all my non overbanked turns.

Yes they will be flanged. But I still need to know if anyone thinks I have too many supports on the first turn.

Lift Hill:

Ok I have another question about my coaster. Should I have an H beam running down my lift acting like a chain return? Or should I not?

It depends on the speed of the lift hill itself. If the lift goes higher than about 15 kph, you should recreate a elevator system like on Goliath, Expedtion GeForce, Millennium Force, ... If the speed is lower you'd better use that H-beam :)

Intamin's don't have that chain return like B&M's do. The chain is inside the track the whole way forward and back.
