So I have this ride that I have been working on for quite a while now, and I'm almost ready to make the decision as to whether or not to start the next phase of the design and do some themeing. The entire ride is hand-built and smoothed, and it is my finest work to date from a technical standpoint without using tools.

There are two parts that need to be carefully examined - the actual technical soundness of the track, and the head-choppers. I have measured each head-chopper and came away satisfied that there is enough room, if only barely.

What I'm looking for is 3 or 4 people who want to test the ride - run through it a few times, and take a good look at the technical aspect and the head-choppers, and get back to me quickly.

Any takers?

(Note: the head-choppers will not pass the standard tunnel test, and have been carefully measured using relative reference points. If you test, use a similar technique to gauge the head-choppers.)

Copies of the ride will be emailed around 5 PM EST today. TJ, I know you have seen this one before, but there have been a few minor modifications with relation to track location and head-choppers.

Are there any more takers?

Hook me up Jon. I think I've seen the first version of this thing. Sorry I didn't help you much, TJ sent me his book of comments on it, he covered everything and much more that I had noticed. Maybe I'll catch up to him this time. hehe

Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.

Iron, I need your email address.... I'm sure I have it somewhere but I can't find it. The ride will be on its way very shortly.

EDIT: nevermind I got it.
