Looks awesome, so is the majority of this coaster going to be underground?

Interesting layout and idea. I look forward to the final terraforming so I can get a better idea of how it all will look. If you need a track tested, I am always happy to give any feedback.[approve]

It's a minute and 9 seconds from the top of the lift to the brakes. That gives a theoretical capacity of 1252pph. Plenty high. Many people have dispatch intervals of NL rides set WAY too low. Even a really quick dispatch (e.g. brand new headline ride running 3 trains) is typically 40-50 seconds, and on older rides (I got these timings on Shockwave at SFGAm) running 2 trains, dispatch intervals of well over 2 minutes aren't at all unusual. No, I don't think it needs a midcourse brake. Having one would really have broken up the flow of the ride.

Track length is 4418ft. I think what might be throwing you off is that it's NOT as high as it looks. The "steep" part of the drop is only 130ft. 150ft from the exact top of the lift. Total height difference is 171ft.
